A very unconventional way of saving water
August 6, 2009
An environmental pressure group in Brazil is running
television ads encouraging viewers to
relieve themselves in the shower, rather than using toilets. The claim is a bit dubious -- where people choose to urinate is hardly the best way to "save the rainforests" -- and it would seem that equivalent savings could be achieved simply by encouraging people to insert containers to
displace water in their toilet tanks.
On a much larger scale, please feel free to
contact us with your questions about
improving municipal wastewater treatment.
