A local government official in the Netherlands is recommending people save money and resources by peeing in the shower.
Bert Wassink, a council member in the Drenthe municipality of Aa en Hunze, said residents can reduce water consumption by combining shower time with toilet time, DutchNews.nl reported Wednesday.
Wassink made his comments as part of the council's 2013 sustainability initiative, which has saving water as one of its focal points.
The official said peeing in the shower "saves lots of clean water and is good for the environment."
"If you combine showers and peeing, you save a lot of water and money, so why not?" asked Wassink, who said he makes the practice a daily habit.

If the Dutch only ‘wasted’ more water, they wouldn’t need to spend so much money on dikes...

Stay safe !
This would never work, Liberals don’t know how to pee standing up..............................
True.
Great place to go window shopping .....
Everything goes back to Seinfeld.
Adam Carolla would say that the Dutch Official in question is obviously too short to be able to pee in the sink. :-)
But sseriously, showers are a huge waste of water. Anyone that’s camped out in a motorhome or gone on long trips on a sailboat knows that you never waste water on shower, you sponge bathe.
This guy claims of saving water by peeing in the shower is as ridiculous as Al Gore’s claims of saving energy by having his office in his 30.000 sqf house.
Well, if you have the garbage disposal in there...
They are built on a swamp, by the way. Plenty of water everywhere.They must have stolen all that water from their colonies. That’s why so much of Africa is a desert now!
