Dear MEL Topic Readers,
These planter-like urinals are Amsterdam’s answer to the problem of ‘wild peeing
When you walk around Amsterdam, a popular tourist destination in the Netherlands, you may find something like a big aluminum trash bin with some green sprouting from the top. But it is not a recycle bin or planter. It is a urinal.
Amsterdam is also called, “Venice of the North” because of the numerous canals running across the city. Also, there are a number of craft beer breweries and famous Heineken. Whatever the causes might be, the city has open urination problems. To combat this historic problem in modern, civilized society, the local council installed the unique urinals at frequently peed hotspots after finding that there was a 50% reduction in wild peeing on a pilot project.
But who openly pee in the first place in a busy city like this, the residents or tourists?
By the way, do you know what these urinals are called? “GreenPees”
While these green urinals may reduce open pees by men, what about women and girls?
Enjoy reading the article and think if you want to see such open, green urinals in your town.
