Hamburg comes the paint anti pee in the street

Who lives in a big city, especially if tourist, knows exactly what we're talking. From Rome to Madrid, from Berlin to Lisbon, every city is facing this problem, which is to have neighborhoods where every meter is a place to eat, drink and be merry, neighborhoods that are filled with people and where the number of chemical baths is inversely proportional to the number of persons. So when it comes the urgent need, we meet in the street to pee in front of a wall or a doorway or crouch behind a car or risk have it in while you wait for your turn to the local toilet. A situation which in the long run becomes unbearable, especially for residents, forced to live with unpleasant smells of urine and people who pees everywhere. One problem, however, seems to be resolved, at least as we show in Hamburg.

The city of Germany, in fact, is famous for its historic St. Pauli district, known for its bars that attract every year more than 20 million tourists who wander from one brewery to another to spend the evening drinking liters of beer . To put an end to the phenomenon of wildpinkler (in Italian, "pisciatori crazy"), have decided to paint the walls of the entire area with a paint "magical". As well explains an article in Der Spiegel, it is a water-repellent paint, usually used to coat the hulls of ships, but which, if applied on walls and doors, does not lose its effect. Namely to "reject" the pee, so that if the urinatore find them all on shoes and pants. The idea came to mind to residents who gathered in a committee and is not intended to drive away visitors, but simply give them the guidelines and make them understand how to behave when you are away from home, in full compliance next.
