REFLECTION QUESTIONBasic Needs & SecurityWith 5-minute or less showers reducing your water footprint, what do you plan to add next to your water conservation habits?
Geno Persico 4/05/2023 8:02 PMMinimize the use of hot water by using only cold tap water for washing clothes. Using my dishwasher more verse hand washing kitchen items will cut down on the amount of water used in the kitchen. Avoid car washes unless absolutely necessary. -
