Millions die each year from polluted water, and there is more concern for nebulous “global warming” which hasn’t killed anyone. Makes no sense.

Sad to hear so many have no decent place to go.
It’s so easy to make a sanitary outhouse/latrine
Also very easy to make a septic system for little $.
A nice septic system can be made with cinder blocks, plastic pipe, some large fill gravel, some tar, and a nice sturdy lid.
A nice sanitary outhouse needs only a shovel, a hand saw, some lumber and a little time.
There are lots of plans available on the web.

Indeed. And the libs accuse us of not giving a s@%#* about the poor.

Isn't easier to sponsor a resolution to ban pooping?

I have three of them in my house. With only two of us, no one has to squirm and wait.

3 years of their life? To make the math simple, assume people live to be 60. 3 years would be 5%, or 1.2 hours/day.
Guess folks in the UK don’t have a lot to do...or maybe a great deal, depending on how you think about it.

Two and a half billion people live without a clean or private place to go to the toilet. And yet they are humans just like us. With the power to reason, the energy to work, and raw materials all about them. So why can't they even build a decent out house?
Culture perhaps?

I’m going to combine earth-hour and world toilet day. Between 8 and 9 pm Saturday night, I’m not going to use my toilet. (I’ll probably just go out in the back yard if I need to take a leak).
