Save water in the most peculiar way
World Water Day always brings out the innovative best in all of us, no matter how peculiar. There’s a new app that’ll help you pass gas in private, AND save water: two laudable efforts.
With a swipe of your finger it plays back the flatulence-dampening sound of a shower without actually running one, so you can do your thing without the resounding ring. And, it shows you how much water you save in the process.
“Silly, useless app,” you say? The new Fake Shower app is from Brazilian water company, Akatu. Apparently the thin walls found in domiciles in many countries leads to embarrassing bathroom “noises” polluting living rooms. In Japan, for instances, I’m told it’s a common occurrence for bathroom dwellers to run showers while cleaning their pipes, so to speak. Now they have a fun app to run instead.
Wonder if we can gamify it?
