When you shower you’re using a tremendous amount of clean drinking water, which needs to be cleaned/processed again for re-use. The amount of water used can be reduced by using watersaving measures such as a watersaving showerhead, which limits the amount of water passing through, or showering for a shorter time.

Showering cold also saves heat/energy + the water wasted while waiting for the shower to heat up. Some people shower in intervals, turn on the shower for bit to get wet, turn it off to soap up and get back in to rinse.

Showering less often also helps, some people only shower once or twice per week of even per 2 weeks, and just wash themselves with a washcloth in between.
