Disposable Toilet Bags - Making Earth Green

Yes I think the peepoo disposable toilet bags will work in India as we have very sever problems with avaibality of toilets in urban slum areas. But ihave quastion in my mind regarding disposing of the bags in urbanised slum area like Mumbai and PUNE where the open land is problem.Execuation of this task is bit difficult.

I believe the concept is good, but afraid as how far it will be put into action properly in India. I can expect these toilet bags lying on the streets instead of getting dumped in a barren land.

First thing, it's a very good discovery especially for slums.Next thing, it's  a biodegradable product ,so it will never affect the environment.Like public toilet, if the govt. issued this bag at low cost, then surely it will reach every human being.If the people started using this bag, then we can see the new sanitized India.Really everyone will welcomed it.

Yes, Anders Wilhelmson’s invention Peepoo is, attracting attention which serves as a  biodegradable plastic bag that lets an individuals use it in the developing world. After the bag is used and buried in the ground, urea crystals coating the bag sterilize the solid human waste and break it down into fertilizer for crops. The Inventor says that his company, Peepoople, sells for 3 cents plus or Rs 1 or more with Duty/taxes and secondly, would people bury it or throw it in the neighborhood? Even though he claims that these are oder-free for 24 hours. Wilhelmson has introduced the bag in Kenya and India but let us see. I would give it at least 5 to 10 year before the basic approach., which has potential

Incidentally, New York Times reports that other low-cost toilets are also being introduced. Singapore-based Rigel Technology recently demonstrated a $30 toilet that separates solid and liquid waste and turns solid waste into compost. A low-cost toilet that uses excrement to produce biogas to be used for cooking is being promoted.. Wilhelmson’s simple and inexpensive sanitizing bag may have the advantage.

 Why it is that it is always Bombay which is associated with slums? Movie magic?

Such bags can fulfill the requirement of keeping our stations clean. What happens at stations now, definitely needs to be improved.

Public toilets at Government Hospitals or similar places, what is the scene, definitely needs to be improved. Such materials could possible be an answer.

We need to think and keep our motto of environmental improvement active.
