Bogotá brings in water rationing with El Niño weather phenomenon meaning city could run out in under two months
Couples in Bogotá are being asked to shower together as water supplies are rationed in the Colombian capital.
Major neighbourhoods were cut off from the water grid on Thursday to preserve dangerously low water levels at reservoirs that have been starved of rain by the weather phenomenon known as El Niño.
As well as recommending that those in a relationship get under the showerhead together, the mayor of Bogotá, Carlos Fernando Galán, asked residents to consider abandoning their daily hygiene practices entirely given the reservoirs were at “historic lows”.
Uhm … asking couples to shower together will probably not result in lower water usage.
I was thinking the same thing. What it might likely result in is more babies though. LOL.

Eh, the TFR is below replacement rate and probably could benefit from a bump.
That’s all well and good, but their showers will be longer
