Another great tip for the bathroom is for your to make sure you Fix Leaks – The most common areas for leaks in your home are faucets, showerheads and toilets. A leaky faucet alone can waste up to 55 liters of water per day and if left unchecked that could add up to over 20,000 liters per year!
It seems to me that shaving with an electric razor is more eco-friendly. I have had the same electric razor for over ten years. Imagine how much discarded plastic and blades would have accumulated in that time - certainly a larger eco-impact than the very short charge time for the electric.
Turn off the water while you brush your teeth. Dentists say you should brush for at least two minutes. Turning the water off during that time will save about eight gallons of water!
I can't believe this..Does people keep the tap ON while brushing the teeth? how long does it even take for people to open/close? hardly anytime...

Just make sure you recycle it when it dies because it has those rechargeable batteries in it and possibly some other minor electronics.
This is a must in our house. My mom has been telling us to use a glass to hold the water while we gargle. Simple tip but a huge help to our environment.
