Cal Tech’s ‘Toilet of the Future’ Expected To Save Millions Of Lives (video)

“No innovation in 200 years has saved more lives than the toilet,” the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation states. “But 2.6 billion people still don’t have a safe, affordable way to poop.” Consequently, every year,  millions of people in developing nations (mainly across the African, Asian, and South American continents) are still dying due to poor water sanitation. They are often having to drink and cook with with the same water in which they defecate and bathe! That is a staggering, horrid truth. But thankfully, Cal Tech researchers backed by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation are tackling this problem head-on… with advanced technology that should solve the it in a sustainable, cost-effective manner – with self-contained solar-powered toilets and sanitation systems. The video explains it all (in VERY technical depth). This is high-tech employed to its most noble purposes…saving and bettering the lives of millions. Awesome and awe-inspiring! Check out this video on the prototype toilet of the future.
