Action 4 - Replace a Showerhead
Stepping into that hot shower every morning might help you wake up. But even more eye-opening is this fact: You could get the same shower without draining so much from your environment or adding more carbon dioxide to the air. Like most homes in the United States, yours probably uses over 94,000 gallons of water each year. You could reduce that significantly by simply changing your showerhead.
