But please, carry on as usual if it’s brown

Atlanta is currently in the worst drought in 170 years, and with our water and sewer bill this month came a sheet of helpful indoor and outdoor water conservation tips. One such tip said:

“Each toilet flush uses approximately 1.6 to 7.5 gallons of water. Do not flush the toilet unnecessarily and consider not flushing after each use.”

In other words, they are suggesting - nay - encouraging us to LET IT MELLOW IF IT’S YELLOW.

All this time I thought we were just being lazy and disgusting, but it turns out we were actually being conscientious conservationists!

Mellowers unite!!
