RE: City may credit toilet replacement (Sept. 18).
Offering people rebates to people to junk perfectly good toilets in favour of dual-flushers is wasteful and unnecessary. There are already effective strategies that can greatly reduce water consumption at no cost to consumers and taxpayers.
Two obvious tactics come to mind: 1) place a brick or two in your tank so you are flushing with less water; 2) flush your urine less often.
A public education campaign would be a better way for the city to promote conservation without putting a greater burden on landfills and the pocket-book.
