This radio piece talks about something that is taboo but needs to be talked about for the sake of the environment… toilets. The Narrator discusses how we are wasting great amounts of perfectly good drinking water for something that doesn’t need that clean of water. She mentions how we could use recycled water from our showers and sinks but does not elaborate on that as much as I would have liked. The main solution she discusses is a toilet that has a flush for number one and a stronger flush for number two, the toilet would use less water on the type one flush. At the college she worked out it would save about 10,000 gallons a day if every one used the two flush system. Of course people brought up points with element of humor about the toilet device. She could’ve gone into so much more detail into the conflict of toilets in the world by showing facts about how much water toilets really use. This is a fun piece although it feels like the narrator just dipped her toes into the odd and fun world of toilets.
