Zheng said the grease accumulated so much over the summer that it broke off in chunks and damaged the district's wastewater treatment plant, costing about $25,000 to repair.
"These fatbergs can really damage our infrastructure and require costly repairs. They can also cause sewer backups where you have raw sewage coming into homes and businesses."
$2.7 MILLION dollars!? Holy shit, that’s almost enough to buy a house there!
Bidets are amazing and cheap. You can get one to fit any existing toilet for $40, and you won’t believe how clean you feel.
Never flush wipes – there’s no such thing as ‘flushable’ wipes. They say that because the wipes won’t necessarily clog the pipes inside your house, but they absolutely accumulate in sewers, leading to the issues in this article.
A bidet drastically cuts TP usage (some of us still use a very small amount for drying). Remember the Great TP Crisis of 2020? It was really nice not having to worry about that at all.
Squeaky clean starfish, and great for the environment. It amazes me everyone doesn’t have one.
I'm surprised that some downvoted your comment when bidets just make sense
it basically saves you money longterm and keeps your butt nice and clean
