Finding hope in a fancy toilet
In my previous post, I wrote about the hope that fougerite gives us. In this post, I write about a truer hope from new technology - a new toilet that saves water (a lot) and which takes the waste we humans produce (a lot) and turns it into electricity. The reason I found this so hopeful is that it addresses directly the fact that we humans are so wasteful, and makes us less so. If similar steps could be taken for major sectors like transportation and home enerrgy use, and recycling of just about everything, and even capturing otherwise wasted food, we'd really be taking steps in the direction that we as a collective humanity need to go.
New toilet turns human waste into electricity and fertilizer
