Hold It In – We All Win!

Disney announced their latest “green” promotion this week. In an effort to reduce water use, all guests are encouraged to go to the bathroom less. For every hour between 5pm and 7am that your room’s toilet does not flush you will receive one dollar towards your bill.

In addition Disney is shutting down random restrooms across the property. On the closed restrooms doors is Disney’s new “green” slogan “Hold It In – We All Win!”

Disney is also placing signs on all of the other restrooms that inform guests: “If it’s yellow, let it mellow, if it’s brown flush it down.”

Disney expects that the new program will save an estimated one million gallons of water a day and also save roughly 100,000 dollars a day in expenses.

However not everyone is on board with the new program. Many have already expressed criticism of the plan.

“I’m terribly offended by those signs. I think they are offensive and crude,” stated Minnie Mouse in an interview after the announcement was made.

She continued “What if you can’t hold it? Are you supposed to jump in the bushes? I think this idea could really backfire!”

Grumpy Dwarf stated “It stinks!” when asked to comment on the new program.

Grumpy may have a point. Disney World could become very smelly while the program is in place. Is that worth the estimated 100,000 dollar a day savings? Only time will tell. For now it might be a good idea to bring a nose plug or gas mask with you on your next trip to the World.
