Go green with eco-friendly toilets

[ad_1]

People are slowly beginning to realize that the world is not what it was 75, 50 or even 20 years ago. The grass is no longer as green as it used to be. The water is no longer as sweet and clean as it was then.

After adding chemicals to almost everything we eat today, many people’s immune systems have weakened and their ability to fight germs has been compromised. As droughts become more frequent, everyone should start thinking about the environment and how it affects us all.

One way to save water, help soil regeneration, and produce biodegradable fuel is to start using green toilets. There are many different types of ecological toilets. Two of them are the incinerating toilet and the compost toilet.

In the incinerating toilet, the waste is incinerated. Water is not needed and has no smell. The remaining ash is simply thrown away with other garbage. This process does not produce any useful product.

Composting toilets thicken the solid waste. Liquids and solids are separated to allow for efficient and natural degradation. Composted solids can be used as fertilizer.

A squat toilet is basically a hole in the floor that you crouch over to get things done. The process is quite sanitary as you don’t need to touch the toilet to use it. And it’s also quite easy to keep it hygienic.

There are several websites where you can get more information on these eco-friendly toilets:

1) EHow.com – Just search this site for “environmentally friendly restrooms”. There are several articles that will explain what an ecological toilet is, how it works, what is its economic value, what is its environmental impact and how easy it is to install.

2) SexyGreenHouse.com – Despite the humorous name, this page discusses how past and present administrations are pushing us towards greater environmental awareness. While an ecological toilet is not the solution to all environmental problems, it will definitely be a step in the right direction.

Green toilets help reduce germs and turn waste into alternative fuel. This process uses little or no water depending on the type of toilet. And the good part is that by installing an ecological toilet you are helping to lead this country in the right ecological direction.
