Of course. Absolutely. For sure. Why didn’t we think of that?
A Brazilian environmental group wants you to save the rainforest by peeing in the shower. Here’s the logic behind the strange request: If a person flushes the toilet just one less time per day it would save 1,157 gallons of water per year. Multiply that by however many Brazilians there are and you save a bunch of water.
The group has even produced a TV commercial to promote the idea. Luckily, it’s animated. The commercial ends by saying, “Pee in the shower! Save the Atlantic rainforest.” You can watch it above. If you really want to.
We see a problem. There’s another eco-wacko ad campaign that tries to convince people to save water by showering with a friend.
We’re pretty sure these two plans just won’t work together. But we really don’t want to think about it.
