Over 97% of the world's water lies in the oceans and is too salty
to drink or irrigate crops with. About 2.8% of the world's water supply
is fresh water. Of that 2.8%, over 2% is frozen in glaciers and ice sheets.
This leaves only about 0.8% of the world's water that is accessible
through aquifiers, streams, lakes, and in the atmosphere. The water we
use primarily comes from this 0.8%.

About 41% of household water is used for flushing toilets; 37% is used for
bathing; 6% for washing dishes; 5% for drinking and cooking; laundry
takes 4%; cleaning 3% and lawn and garden usage 2%.




So there you have it, friends - a measly, tiny two percent
Of all the water on this wondrous world of ours is spent
On all the things we use it for - from drinking, washing clothes,
Bathing, cleaning, watering the tulip and the rose.

And almost half of this amount which has become our ration
We flush away in private in a most unseemly fashion.
To empty out our bladders and our bowels of who-knows-what
We're using almost half of all the water that we've got!!

Thank God we have the golfer to alleviate this mess.
Unselfishly he gives his all to help relieve our stress.
On any given day across this land of ours you'll see
Some golfer answer Nature's call behind the nearest tree!




There are 10,000 courses in the old U.S. of A
At least a hundred golfers play on each one every day.
At least a million golfers every day to whack their ball
And almost all will use this way to answer Nature's call.

To flush a toilet takes almost a gallon and a half
So they can save two million gallons daily - Hey! Don't laugh!!
There is no greater champion of our ecology
Than golfers with their bladders full who have to take a pee.

Not only do they save the water all non-golfers flush
Their contribution helps to keep the landscape green and lush.
Why are the deserts barren? Well, the only answer is
There are no trees to hide behind to take a healthy whiz!!

So, should you chance to see a golfer piddle on the grass
Resist the urge with all your might to scream out "You're an ass!!"
They play a quite important role environmentally
Each time they drop their trousers and do what comes naturally.

ummm, LOL, ok, i'll buy that
