I literally just watched a college performance of Urinetown… I thought it was incredibly à propos given our current dystopian climate (pun intended) … And now THIS!!!! Time to flush globalism and it’s hangers-on down the toilet.
Actively trying to get rid of my smart elec meter, (see emfhelpcenter.com, very helpful indeed). What funny is in reviewing my bills, I see that the bill amounts are the same for 2 month periods, now, what are the odds of that? Seems they are doing some fudgery of the numbers to get that to happen, and many report the bills from smartmeters are much higher, (as they do steal your money for their surveillance, and dirty up your power so the whole house is adversly affected). Besides that the smart meters (stupid meters I call them) do tend to explode and catch fire easily, besides the unlawful radiobroadcasting of the private info that is their raison d'etre. Stupid meters, killing us one more way!
So where does all the water go? Outer space?? Waste water follows the cycle of returning to the earth and oceans, evaporating and condensing and returning again as rain and snow. We have the same amount of water on Earth that we've had since the beginning of time. The earth is 2/3 covered in ocean. The polar caps have untold amounts of clean, fresh water. As the earth goes through its natural warming and cooling cycles, they melt, moderating the ocean's salinity. I learned this in gradeschool. These people are insane.
But wait a sec...if we all become transhuman and no longer have bodies and our consciousness is beamed up to Scottie and all...doesn't it follow that we won't have bladders? And therefore all of this is moot?
Oh, how my tiny little head hurts trying to make sense of all this!
Toilets and bathrooms? Just adopt the San Francisco model! That’s what streets are for...chamber pots and open windows! Problem solved. Onward to the 17th century.
Even here in Arizona there is no shortage of water. There is only very bad management by the centralized authorities that have monopolized water and sewage.
That's actually been a good thing. It has forced many of us to reconsider and turn to decentralized, local solutions. Maybe 31 years ago I realized humanure is a great resource and used a composting toilet. Several years ago I switched to putting infiltrators on my sewage system and over-planted them with food producing trees. Now every time I shit, (I piss in a bucket and throw it on the garden twice a day - yes, there are bucket seats for women) shower or do dishes, I'm watering and fertilizing those trees. I also capture all the rain water from the roof of my house and direct it to plantings.
I have some friends who live 100% off of rain water - bathroom, shower, drinking etc.
Bypass monopolized authoritarian rule with a decentralized, local solution.

These people are obscene, and I speak as a Thames Water customer. This is the first year we have been forced to have metered water and they are manifestly cheating us rotten (though it is very hard to prove). There is absolutely no reason why we should be short of water in London except for malice and negligence - malice is more important since these people are pretty energetic when they want to screw you. The warped politics behind this was described in an article also in the Telegraph 11 years ago by Christopher Booker https://web.archive.org/web/20230409130941/https://www.telegraph.co.uk/comment/9261122/Keeping-the-country-short-of-water-is-now-government-and-EU-policy.html
“Astonishingly, it now emerges, it has become quite deliberate government policy to keep Britain short of water. And the explanation for this baffling volte-face lies in a “Communication” issued in 2007 by the European Commission (COM (2007) 414 Final) “addressing the challenge of water scarcity and droughts in the European Union”.
“This document was based on the belief that Europe was facing a water crisis due to global warming. The only way to meet the prospect of severe droughts, it argued, was to encourage us all to use water much more “efficiently”. Not once in this 14-page document is there any mention of the need to improve the storage of water. From now on, the policy of member states must be, by every possible means, to reduce the use of water, not least by making it more expensive. This is the policy that our government has now adopted, as was confirmed last year by Mrs Spelman’s White Paper, Water for Life. In all its 105 pages, there are plenty of mentions of climate change and the need to conserve water in face of the predicted droughts. As Mrs Spelman put it, when rivers start to run dry and cracks appear in those empty reservoirs, “we must recognise these as warning signs of what we might expect to see in a changing climate”. But not once, as in the EU’s paper, is there any mention of a need to build new reservoirs. The only message is that we must learn to conserve this “precious resource”, not least by making us pay more for it.”
The UK is not short of rainfall but we haven’t had a new reservoir built in 30 year - by now at least 12m more people.
Not so, dear Tessa! Composting toilets are very hygienic if made and used properly, and what's more of course recycle our poop and pee into fertilisers for the plants. They are totally win-win. I'm pretty sure our dependence on the Crapper is all part of the control agenda, too. We have to be hooked up to the sewage system rather than having sovereignty over our pooping and peeing!
From Thames Water’s own report - they lose 24% of the daily water supply via leaks in the infrastructure that they manage. The UK water system is notoriously bad - and for a country where it never stops bloody raining ... But hey, never mind, just sting the consumers under the guise of “sustainability”. This is just one of the many reasons I refuse all “smart” meters. One of our elderly neighbours has them so we let them use our supply to water their garden in summer 😉 Hose pipes will be the next to get the chop. They’ve been bringing periodic hose pipe bans in for years and would be a double whammy for them - not only do they “save” water, but it also stops us growing our own produce.
In the recent past, I lived on a farm in a house that I helped build, and the water source was a shallow well that often went dry in late summer. So we actually did these water-saving things, out of necessity, instead of being forced into it by power-mad bureaucrats.
I literally just watched a college performance of Urinetown… I thought it was incredibly à propos given our current dystopian climate (pun intended) … And now THIS!!!! Time to flush globalism and it’s hangers-on down the toilet.
Next up: Dead people don't waste water.

Instead of owning up to millions of gallons of leakage per annum, blaming your customers is the accustomed, time-worn, dishonest strategy.

I have a test concept proposal. Don't go to work and don't flush the loo.
Seriously -- and revealing my ignorance -- how can the UK be running out of water?! It's an island, not a desert.
Considering the amount of water used to make a single pair of jeans, for example, I think we have bigger culprits than Joe Everyman flushing the loo!
Ntm the willful contamination of watersheds….
But, as always, it is the common people who must pay while the elites consume and control.
Toilets and bathrooms? Just adopt the San Francisco model! That’s what streets are for...chamber pots and open windows! Problem solved. Onward to the 17th century.
