Another Fatberg is causing problems. England is the lucky
winner again.
In case you haven’t heard of them, Fatbergs are gigantic
masses that form in sewers. They are comprised of grease that people pour down
their sink, and wipes, diapers, etc. that people flush down the toilets.
They cause a lot of trouble, and are expensive to remove.
And the solution is so simple:
Stop it.
Stop pouring the grease and flushing the items.
Really.

Possible good news:
Thanks to all the hoarding of toilet
paper during the COVID-19 outbreak, it seems that people are looking for
alternatives. Sales of a $100 bidet attachment spiked in mid-March at one company.
If people turn to bidets instead of
flushable wipes, maybe this will slow the growth of fatbergs.
