The Issue

• Nearly everything we do leaves behind some kind of waste. Households create ordinary garbage. Industrial and manufacturing processes create both solid waste and hazardous waste.

• We as humans, leave behind our own waste in the form of feces

The idea

.The practice of using waste as fertilizer has been an agricultural practice since the days of the hunters and gatherers

.By building a machine to collect, filter, and distribute this waste we “kill to birds with one stone”

. Eliminate waste, cover the space, and just WAIT…..

• The absence of a “flush”, saves our Earth’s precious water, while collecting our own waste to be recycled, and then distributed to promote floral growth

• Your beautiful garden awaits…• Save our earths preciously scarce water, by

eliminating the need to “flush”• Our natural waste is not such “waste” after all

Mission Goal• Reduce the amount of artificial fertilizers used• Water preservation• Self Sufficient• “Protect our environment, one poop at a time”

How It Works• Toilet is stationary during use• Fecal matter collects in the bottom, in the septic tank• Contains duel rotating filtration mechanism, to reduce the

fecal surface area and increase growth– Goes through first filter, creates coarse material– Goes through second filter, becomes fine grained

– “only the cream of the crap gets through”

• Contains wheels, and pump for fertilizational distribution

“cream of the crap”
