Stop!
Quick – do you turn the water off when you brush your teeth?
Really? Are you sure?
Think about it the next time you brush your teeth. How much effort does it take to turn on the water, wet your toothbrush, then turn off the water? When you’re done brushing, turn the water back on, rinse your brush and the sink, and turn it back off.
Do you know that most Americans actually leave the water running while brushing their teeth? Why?
Tell us in the comments, which do you do when you brush your teeth?
