Good morning. I just saw this video and was wondering if anyone has tried this and how it worked? It looks interesting, but I wonder about the environmental impact. Opinions and/or comments welcome. Thanks.
And here I was thinking the diapers under discussion would be for grownups who were having too much fun playing in the dirt to come indoors and use the potty!

Not only is this disgusting, but illegal in most of the country. Proper disposal of human waste is essential for disease prevention. For the same reason we can use cow manure as fertilizer in fields and not human waste. Human waste is the perfect breeding ground for diseases communicable to humans.
1. Use the filler from a diaper as a water grabber for a plant. This would be from a clean, unused diaper.
2. Composting used, dirty diapers. Some companies will now sell you compostable diapers, retrieve the used diapers from you, and do the composting. The filler from a used wet diaper (pee is normally sterile) could be composted at home, but those soiled with poop (which is obviously not sterile) should go in the trash.
