Here my current status
on the suggested tips to get a "greener" shower and a public written compromise to get greener
on this subject!!!!
1. I do short showers
I do short showers only when I don't wash my hair...but I only open the tap when I need to rinse off. I try to wash my hair only every other day. But I live in the tropics and it gets really warm and humid, sometimes I can't help to wash my hair everyday to get a fresher feeling!
2. I shower every other day
I have never actually loved showers...but still I do shower everyday except if I don't have to go to work or if it's the weekend and I don't have a social meeting...So, I ended up having showers 6 out of 7 days a week most of the time. I can't really commit to shower every other day...but I can commit to have quick showers, close the tap when I don't need the water, etc.
3. I prefer soaps than shower gel
The
other way around in my case: I prefer shower gel than soap. So, here is my
commitment: I will use the current shower gel I have and that's it!!! I'm going
to get soaps from now on, organic and biodegradable ones! I actually will do a
market search for the best one in terms of environment and price!!!!
4. I use environmentally friendly shampoo and rinse
I do too!!! I have been using an aloe shampoo and rinse for years now!
Good for the environment and good price too!!
5. I skip scrubs with micro plastic
I don't particularly use scrubs...so not a problem! When I go for a
scrub, I have always use brown sugar and add a little bit of soap and just one
drop of water and it works perfectly!!
6. I reuse my towels
I reuse my towels; usually I use them for a whole week!
** I have one more tip to add **
I use as a body sponge a natural paste (or natural sponge), also I use a little one just for my face .
Natural Paste for body |
- Have quick showers; close the tap when I
don't need the water (only open the tap when I
need to rinse off).
- I will use the current shower gel I have
and that's it!!! I'm going to get soap from now on.
