The Humanure Handbook – A Simple Sawdust Toilet
In fact you can download an ebook on the topic free written by Joseph Jenkins. I won’t go into too much more detail but it’s basically a simple way to compost human waste. The toilet it a toilet lid covered bucket filled with sawdust and the waste is periodically taken out to a compost pile. I know that sounds pretty gross but it sounds a whole lot better than backed up sewer systems. Check it out… The Humanure Handbook
In an emergency situation one simple thing can turn into a real mess… yes I’m talking about poo. What to do with the poo? Someone recently commented on one of my tiny house blogs that using a sawdust toilet might be the ideal solution for many people in many situations. It seems like the perfect solution for an emergency situation.
