Australia Proposes Tax on Toilet Flushes

Logical Zebra writes: Australia, in an effort to curb water use during a drought, is proposing a new tax. Households would be charged per flush of the toilet.

Some people may go as far as not flushing their toilet as often because the less sewage you produce, the less sewage rate you pay," says Adelaide University Water Management Professor Mike Young.

This policy doesn't yet have a name, but I would like to propose If It's Yellow, Let It Mellow; If It's Brown Flush It Down.
