What You Can Do In The Bathroom

Did you know you can help stop global warming, use the 3R’s (reduce, reuse and recycle), and help save water in the bathroom?
 


Here are some ways you can stop global warming in your bathroom.

  • Use fluorescent light bulbs
  • Turn off the lights when not in use
  • Use air fresheners, deodorants, and hairspray that say “no CFCs” because CFCs delete the ozone

Here are some ways you can use the 3R’s (reduce, reuse and recycle) in your bathroom.

  • Use recycled toilet paper
  • Use your hand towel and bath towels more than one time between washings
  • Use non-disposable cleaning supplies
  • Recycle your personal care product and cleaning supply containers

Here are some ways you can save water in your bathroom.

  • Take a shower instead of a bath
  • Turn off the water when you are brushing your teeth
  • Turn off the water when you are “soaping” your hands
  • Try to take less than a ten minute shower
