Save water - sing short songs

Australians have been told to stop singing in the shower in an attempt to save electricity and water.

Energy Australia, one of the country's leading power suppliers, has conducted research which showed the average shower length is seven minutes.

Energy Australia says long showers soak up electricity like a sponge.

The company is distributing 500,000 shower timers in the Sydney area to remind consumers to be more energy efficient and presumably in the hope that shower-time singers will choose shorter songs.
