Ecological Sanitation: coming soon to this blog
Advertisement
Ecological Sanitation (EcoSan) allows peoples who are native/poor to have sanitation without the use of potable water
In the next couple of days I will feature a guy who has helped many people by designing and building ecological sanitation. No, I don't agree with some of his ideas. But the EcoSan is pretty cool, it has changed the lives of many people from the poor coastal people of Ecuador to the native peoples of Brazil's western jungle.
EcoSan is intended to answer the question: how do you wash your hands and dispose of human waste when potable water is not available or is just too expensive.
I am posting this "coming attraction" because there may be some in the Lawrence/Haskell/KU community who would find this interesting.
Tune in soon.

however, I am sincerely posting this as useful information.
this tech could make a great difference to many poples. and we already face a serious water shortage in much of the world.
