Global Warming. Climate Change solutions- It is incredible what one is able to discover by accident. Just yesterday after years of holding guilt at peeing in the shower I can now rest easy. That's right it is good, it is okay. No longer will I need to keep it a secret. No longer will the dark recessed of my mind agonise over the fact that I pee in the shower. I did it once many years ago and it sort of goes now with the territory I have a shower and the sound of running water make me want to pee. Good thing is now I can rest really easy, why ? I am saving the environment ! That's right I am doing a solitary thing to save the environment. Lets all save water and therefore save the environment. Maybe I can start an environmental party based on peeing in the shower.

Glamour magazine polled 1,000 women on everything from sitting on public toilets to re-wearing dirty clothes and then asked the experts which habits are unhealthy, and which we can really get away with.

Yesterday by Chance Dr Karl who is a famous Australian Scientist answered known affectionately as a Sleek Geek I posed a question to him on Twitter what about me peeing in the shower. I got a very positive response saying that my peeing in the shower was saving water and therefore good for the environment. As well the pee is actually sterile & there fore no danger to the shower or anything else when water down with shower water ant smell would quickly disappear.
Do you pee in the shower ?
See results without votingApparently according to fairly reliable source a New television advertisement in Brazil are encouraging people to pee in the shower as a way of conserving water. Our own nation, you may remember, stood divided on the issue a few years ago during Big Brother 3 when Alex was appalled by Johnny's unwillingness to make a distinction between loo and shower basin. The new campaign, however, undoubtedly marks a new stage – or high water mark, if you will – in the world's development, and with new mores comes new etiquette.

Hi Barry - Salt's comment about infections isn't relevant, because urine is sterile in the first 30 seconds as it leaves your body, and it's washed straight down the drain.
I added a link to this Hub from my Hub on easy ways to be green, thanks!
Love your sense of humor. Thanks fro the hub, and good luck with the challenge!
umm, have had black water from the black water dam on a farm, like enviro loos, but not big on wee in the shower. Dr Karl forgot, if you share a shower, you may also share infections.... so Im not big on that one, Id rather we had decent moderate rainfall, and enviro loos are good.
Id add here, the bucket I keep in the shower for the garden, I think Id use just as much water making sure the shower was clean ... etc so it would be less worthwhile.
And you usually only shower once a day. How many times do you go to the loo?
Love it! :) (note - if this is a 60 Day Challenge Hub, you need to add the RSS feed at the bottom below your ads)
