If it's brown, flush it down. If it's yellow, let it mellow.

Considering the fact that in many areas fresh water is scarce, do you abide by the Focker code of "If it's brown, flush it down. If it's yellow, let it mellow" ?

It is an excellent step towards not being wasteful with scarce resources. Back at home I try to stick to this even though we have plenty of water in Maryland. What are your thoughts?

Water is an unlimited resource. It can even be made artifically.

So i dont care really.

 

[Cheezy the Wiz]

I knew you were referring to that movie.

I think its nasty, I always flush it down. But then again, I also have a dog, and a rather stupid one at that, and I don't need him in there slurping up my, well I'll just stop there...

This isn't the Sahara. If I use the toilet, it's getting flushed.

 

[GinandTonic]

Do you not have seperate buttons on the loo for the, ahh, required amount of flushing?

Fresh water is not an unlimited resource.

I just cannot understand why dogs will eat anything except vegetables. Does that stuff taste good to them?

I would really like a scientific explanation for why my dog eats my cats poo.

 

[Ansar]

Um...no. I flush it always.

If it's yellow, it still stinks after a while.

Nope. One button in North America.

 

[Xanikk999]

Fresh water is not an unlimited resource.

Water is recycled through nature automatically. And there are always rivers to collect rainwater, treatment plants to make it drinkable.

And the sea has an unlimited supply of water which can be made drinkable with an expensive process.

 

[GinandTonic]

Where is the poll option for "this isnt an option if you have a modern toilet"?

 

[Xanikk999]

Do you not have seperate buttons on the loo for the, ahh, required amount of flushing?

I wish we did.

You have more than one button on your throne ?!<insert interrobang here BLAST FROM THE PAST!>

I thought that movie was great, and it kinda influenced my decision to start implementing such a resource-conservation strategy .

Ok but in practice it's not actually unlimited - at any given time a watershed only has so much fresh water available to the people that use it.

 

[skadistic]

Maybe my piss stinks more then the rest of you but if I let it stew my bathroom smells ungodly.

More water less coffee/ beer. When you find yourself running from the loo screaming "sweet lord" its time to hydrate...

 

[Fugitive Sisyphus]

Water is an unlimited resource. It just that it can be expensive to get it where you want it.



And I flush whatever color it is.

Depends on what I've just eaten or drank in the last 24 hrs. I'm a big water/powerade/gatorade drinker, so it typically doesn't smell rotten.

But aquifers is where we get most of our freshwater, and that is not a renewable source. Not only humans depend on aquifers or other water resources.
