This is a different complicated issue as water and electricity are finite resources. Their is a limit to how much can be generated or stored at any one time.
Americans are notoriously wasteful of both water and electricity. There is a lot that can be done in the individual home to be more efficient and use less. That is the reason we are being pushed to do so.
I like to turn the shower on it's highest setting and let the bathroom steam up for a good 15 minutes before I enter. Then I like to sit under the shower for about 20 minutes just letting the water flow over me. It's relaxing — sometimes I'll pee. Then I'll start my actual washing of the hair, face, body, each with their own soaps. Then I'll brush my teeth and floss in the shower. All this takes about 30 minutes for a grande total of 1h:05m. That's not too bad, right?
LOL, yes Sol they are making Smart Meters especially for people like this.
