Sewage

Added: Jun 5th, 2008
Another reason suburbia is such a bad idea, is the enormous cost of hooking up sewage and other infrastructure. The well designed home should be able to process all of its water and solid waste. From my years of work on solar devices, I am convinced that new and existing homes can be taken ‘off the grid’ as it were, as far as waste disposal. Many digesting toilets have been made, and some of them very successful. We should however, combine solar energy and sewage evaporation. Let us marry the two, and along with re-use of grey water, greatly reduce municipal waste treatment lines. New housing can eliminate or greatly lessen the high initial cost of sewage lines. Also, it is suggested that the average person urinates enough each year to provide enough fertilizer to grow enough corn to feed that person. Instead we are using poisonous ground-killing chemicals, and flushing our wastes into our water supply.
