If you have a consistent schedule, you can also use timers for those so you don’t always need to remember to run it.

Most houses in the US have a single water heater, usually in the basement or utility room, with pipes running all through the house.

I thought a hot water circulator would be great, and it kind of is, but it comes with a drawback that I hadn’t considered. If you want cold water from the tap, to fill a glass of water at night for example, you have to wait for that just as long as you would have had to for the hot water before!

So you’re ok using more water to clean your dishes? On what basis do you declare dishwashers to be environmentally unfriendly?

Remind me who ran against Xi in his very democratic last election?

You said “the working class is in control of the state”, and I was looking for some argument to support that. I think Xi is in charge of the state, and I don’t think the working class gets much say in that.

OK but you said public ownership as a part of how “the working class” is in control of the state, and this sounds like not that.

What does “public ownership” mean? They’re not paying dividends to every Chinese citizen, right? I assume you mean “the state”, in which case I’m not seeing your point.

I’m sorry, the working class is in control of the state? I’d love to hear something to back up such a strong statement.

Personally I shower after the bath with cooler water, helps to reset my temp so I’m not sweaty after and obviously to clean up also.
