Topic: Campaign to save water - have a pee with your shower.
+Anonymous A — 11.8 years ago #38,246
If everyone in the UK took their first pee of the day with their morning shower (and I guess many already do) the annual saving of fresh water would amount 720million litres and if we didn't flush after every pee that number would double or even triple. So say
The Go with the Flow campaigners Debs Torr and Chris Dobson,students from the University of East Anglia (UEA) in Norwich.
They want the university's 15,000 students to take their first wee of the day while having their morning shower.
Mr Dobson, 20, said the idea could "save enough water to fill an Olympic-sized swimming pool 26 times".
The pair want those taking part to pledge their allegiance on Facebook and Twitter and have offered gift vouchers to the first people to join the challenge.
Mr Dobson said: "We've done the maths, and this project stands to have a phenomenal impact.
"With 15,000 students at UEA, over a year we would save enough water to fill an Olympic-sized swimming pool 26 times over.
"Imagine how big an impact it could have if we could get everyone in East Anglia, or even the UK, to change their morning habits.

Reminds me of the first tyme with Darleen a gal I dated long ago. I suggested she shower with me and she said: I cannot get in the shower with you because I always pee and guys get mad at me for doing that. Well hell like hot water and Pee make for not so nice aroma. It ain't like pee itself is dirty cause its sterile but heat makes urine stank quickly n who likes stank? And sure on occasions by self I do but.
She learned to pee first b4 shower with me.
WAS that TMI?
