Informative Article on the Benefits of Composting Toilets

Hi all! I was looking at this cool website that lists about why composting toilets are good for soil. Basically to summarize what the article says is that the benefits of using a composting toilet is that it will help save water,  since no water will be used to flush the waste. The waste itself decomposes, and in a way “self cleans” itself from harmful bacteria leaving only the nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. These are very essential nutrients for the growth of plants. Another reason why it is beneficial, is because many farmers use fertilizer that has inorganic materials that are easily washed away from heavy rainfall. I keep mentioning this composting idea, because I think we can incorporate this solution into our own solution. I have linked the article below.
