Two students from the University of East Anglia (UEA) have started a campaign to get people to pee in the shower to save water.

The #gowiththeflow campaign was started by Chris Dobson and Debs Torr, who worked out that if the 15,000 students on campus did their business in the shower in the morning, they’d each save 12 litres of water that would otherwise be flushed down the loo.

“We’ve done the maths; the project stands to have a phenomenal impact,” said Chris. “With 15,000 students at UEA, over a year we would save enough water to fill an Olympic size pool 26 times over. Imagine how big an impact it could have if we could get everyone in East Anglia, or even the UK, to change their morning habits.

“The campaign has been really divisive – people either seem to love it or hate it.”
