Pee in the shower!

Matt Berger Nov 29, 2010

In Brazil there’s a movement afoot encouraging households to pee in the shower. They say it can reduce your water consumption by the equivalent of one flush a day, or more than a thousand gallons of water each year.

What else is there to say, really? It saves water. And for your enjoyment–one of my favorite enviro-videos ever. The television ad campaign:
