Were looking for programs that have reduced shower times and/or hot water used for washing clothes, and that have data showing their effectiveness in doing so. Were particularly interested in programs that have been conducted in student residences, but would appreciate information on all programs with impact data. Were also looking for benefits and barriers research related to shower times and washing clothes in cold water. A summary of the resulting information will be made available through this listserv and will be posted on ToolsofChange.com. The information will be used by our consulting team, led by LURA, to assist the University of British Columbia with its campus sustainability program.
Thanks, Jay

Jay,
The Urban Sustainability Directors Network implemented a behavior change pilot in several communities on washing in cold water. The consulting company Action Research coordinated it. Contact Lori Large ([email protected]) about the process and the results.
