This is the coolest product I’ve seen in a long time. It’s a very inexpensive plastic bag that is basically a disposable toilet. Here’s the genius part:
Once used, the bag can be knotted and buried, and a layer of urea crystals breaks down the waste into fertilizer, killing off disease-producing pathogens found in feces.
While that might not be so interesting to you if you’re living in the developed world, for the 40% of the population living in developing countries without access to toilets this could be life-changing.
