A "green" toilet that turns your waste into compost. No Flushing Needed

One Washington couple is taking recycling to a whole new level.
Not only do they recycle their newspapers and cardboard...They recycle their
own waste.
Curtis Erickson decided not to install a typical septic system. He decided to go green and buy a composting toilet.
The toilet converts waste into soil as it mixes with sawdust and peet moss plus a little water and heat.

Oh goodness, there are just somethings I don’t think need composting and ones own feces is one of them. I am all about being earth friendly but this is just too much. Can you imagine the smell???? Bet they don’t have to worry about many visitors or for that matter people asking to use their toliet…..
