share your bath
 

'Share your bath', Filipinos told
The Philippine government is calling on its citizens to start sharing a
bath with their partners.
The plea, which may prompt sniggers in some quarters, is not part of a
drive to promote intimacy between couples.
Instead, it is a serious suggestion from the Department of the Environment
to combat water shortage.
"Start sharing baths with your partner to conserve water," a statement by
the department said.
The government is particularly concerned about the capital, Manila, home to
12 million residents.
A lack of seasonal rains has meant a fall in water levels in reservoirs
servicing the city.
"We are sounding the alarm early to avoid a water shortage. We are worried
that the situation will worsen during the summer months," said Environment
Secretary Elisea Gozun.
