With Melbourne’s water storages down more than 17 per cent over the past year, Yarra Valley Water has launched a new campaign targeting the home’s greediest water user – the shower.
The average Yarra Valley local spends just over seven minutes in the shower.
Cutting that back to four minutes, saves water, energy, money and reduces greenhouse gas emissions.
To help, Yarra Valley Water has created a Spotify playlist of four minute songs.
Yarra Valley Water general manager strategy and community Tiffany White said small changes at home can make a big difference.
“Showers use more water than anywhere else in the home. So the less time we spend singing, studying or solving the world’s problems in the shower, the more water we save,” she said.

People can also find the playlist by searching “Shower Shorter” on Spotify.
