California for eco friendly toilets

California will now have high-efficiency toilets and urinals. Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger has come up with a bill to reduce use of water in toilets. The drought situation in the US state has forced Californians to resort to conservation. The Colorado River Basin, an important source of water supply for Southern California, experienced consecutive years of drought from 2000-2004.

The bill proposes new flush volume standards.
