Citing longstanding complaints about wet and smelly restroom floors in
its headquarters in Sacramento, the California Environmental
Protection Agency has removed its 56 waterless urinals. According to
KCRA-TV the devices are estimated to have saved about a million
gallons of water during their service life of six years.

The urinals were state of the art technology when they were installed
in 2004. They have been replaced by low-flow urinals that use about a
half-gallon of water per flush.

Globally it's estimated that humans flush down the drain up to 20
percent of the supply of potable water.

And I heard it was going to cost $25,000.00!
