Over a hundred years ago, Teddy Roosevelt noted that “civilized people ought to know how to dispose of the sewage in some other way than putting it into the drinking water.” We still don't get it right, building huge networks of pipes that dump everthing together into one pipe, when both bodily waste products are considerably more useful if kept separate. Rose George does an op-ed in the New York Times that expains why. Urine is full of phosphorus, which may soon be in short supply, so there is a market for it as fertilizer. So why not put urine-separating toilets in our homes?
