Eco-Friendly Sanitation in Asia - Incinolet Toilets

Can you image what it would be like to live in an area without basic plumbing necessities? How would you feel about using the restroom in front of a complete stranger?

According to an article found on Deutsche Welle (DW),"Over 1.7 billion people lack access to improved sanitation in Asia and the Pacific and millions defecate in the open." The lack of toilets in these areas have many negative implications on the health and well being of their citizens. While toilets would improve the overall living conditions for people living in these areas; regretfully, they would not solve all of their sanitation problems.

Simply investing in toilets in these areas would not be enough to ameliorate the problem. Without having a proper system in place to deal with the waste that would be flushed into their soil, the health risks would persist. Without treating the sewage, waterborne diseases would continue to contribute to the overall mortality rate.

Not to fret--there is a possible solution!
