Closing the Asylums Has Consequences

California - known for its poo-lined streets, is one step closer to Soylent Green, after state officials approved new "toilet-to-tap" regulations which would allow water agencies to take wastewater from homes, recycle it, and then deliver it back to households in an effort to maximize the state's water supply.

"It will truly be the highest quality water delivered in the state when it’s done," according to Darrin Polhemus, director of the Division of Drinking Water and the State Water Resources Control Board, the NY Post reports.

"Drought happens all the time and with climate change, it will only get worse," Santa Clara Valley Water District official Kirsten Struve told ABC. "This is a drought-resistant supply that we will need in the future to meet the demands of our communities."

Well, shit.
