unconsumption: Today, as many of you know, is World Water Day. And we, like many of you, strive to help increase awareness of the ongoing need to protect and conserve water and other natural resources. Are you aware that: Reducing your shower time by 5 minutes can save up to 20 gallons of water per shower? Washing dishes in a dishwasher instead of hand-washing them can save 16 gallons of water?  A low-flow toilet can save 25 gallons of water/day? A dripping faucet can result in 20 gallons of lost water per day? Thanks to our friends at The Nature Conservancy, who created this “Water Footprint of an American” infographic and shared the valuable water-saving tips! Find much more info on The Nature Conservancy’s blog here.
