  1. probably none, if every body did this there would be many more grave yard to water and keep green


  2. your bored

  3. To an extent it's okay. If it's yellow and smells, though, I'll flush it, but if it's okay, I don't mind waiting until the next time to flush.

  4. Proper hygiene trumps saving water on that one. Why do you want to have a bowl of p**s in your house?

  5. rule applies at our cottage because we have a septic tank. only if your on a septic tank that should apply

  6. Well, I posted it a while back since that is the policy they use at a camp I go to, Nature Camp.

    The average flush uses 5 gallons of water a day.

    The avg. person goes at least 4 times a day but only one of those is #2 usually. The rest are #1 and a waste of water to flush.

    So you could save over 15 gallons a day per person, which would add up to upwards of 5470 gallons a year.

    Now there are 300,000,000 people in the US alone, so if even half did this it would equal 821,250,000,000 gallons a year. Or about 1/23 of the Chesapeake bay which is still a lot of water.

    As far as hygiene goes, unless you stick your hand in it you should be fine. They have done this at my camp for 50+ years and never had a problem. The smell should not even really be that bad since your #1 should be clear, if it is not then you are dehydrated and need to drink more water.

    Hope this helped!

  7. A brick in the toilet tank is good enough. Better yet, use gray water from your washer to flush the toilet, or dirty dish water. Maybe bathwater could be used. Rain water in a bucket also works. To use alternative water, just keep a bucket of the used stuff close by and dump it in the toilet when it needs flushing.

  8. If it's green, keep it clean

  9. if its blue blow a flute lol??

  10. OMG. you got to be kiddn me
