Not a hard job. You can empty a septic tank with a slurry tanker in a matter of minutes.

The hardest bit would be the design of buildings to allow access quickly.

Yeah, I can see how completely rebuilding every single sewer & every single building we’ve built over the last 170 years might take a few years’ work.

in North Korea human feces are already massively used as fertilizers right now, because the Country doesn't have the industrial/chemical ones following UN sanctions.

 

and actually, they were/are used also in many other places where poverty is at the highest level.

 

not here to explain the whole drama, but you can easily find in the net what the human feces used as fertilizer do to human body.

 

just search for health conditions of people defecting from North Korea.

It is very difficult for me to find an appropriate answer to this comment, but i will try:

1) How do you know that this is what he meant?

2) If you didn't ask him what he meant: What made you think that you could speak on his behalf?

3) Could you maybe post a link to the study that "proves" that people defe(ca)ting from North Korea are in such a bad state (health-wise) because North Korea uses human feces as fertilizer?

4) Where did i advocate for the use of human feces as fertilizer? (If i forgot that i wrote that, then please excuse my question)

5) Could you maybe post a link to a study that "proves" that using human feces as a fertilizer is bad for the body?

 

Thanks!

Centralized sewage treatment plants?

1) I am not a leftist, centralist or "rightist", but a pragmatist. Thanks for trying to put me into a category in order to "disqualify" me. This is always a good starting point for a discussion.

2) Could you maybe show me where i advocated for using human feces as fertilizer? (Please excuse the question if i just forgot that i wrote that)

3) Let's assume that i advocated this idea, but wouldn't be willing to do the "collecting" myself: How would this make the concept (using human feces as fertilizer) less "plausible"? I assume you are in favor of putting murderers behind bars (as an example)? I also assume that you wouldn't be willing to do the "deed" (picking them up ... not knowing if they are armed for example) yourself?

Try typing “North Korea Tapeworm” into any search engine & see what you get.

Yes, this is also why we never got 4G/5G and why we still rely on steam locomotives and horse carriages for transport.

Thanks, this whole discussion is very confusing for me. May i assume that you and phelps are the same person/speak on each other's behalf?

One page of discussion about zzzemantics? You guys must be bored.

"Another interesting topic could be using human feces as a resource."  

  

  

Whatever "resource" means there.

    • @Josh Any chance this  team replaces the Tirinzoni/Paetz rink for the next OG? 
    • Honestly, I think you guys have a much better chance of success here than we do. It's already difficult to maintain this sport, and with this ridiculous format this year, things have gotten even worse. Years and years participating in the elite and we haven't been able to evolve; it was just a waste.

    • Another weak result for our athletics team, which is typical; without Caio or Alisson, our chances of a medal in any high-level tournament are almost zero.   However, Juliana's result in the women's pole vault was a great 7th place. She is improving rapidly and still has a lot of room for growth.

    • some changes in the team and less importance to the sport, the two big teams until 2022/2023 ( and ) in south america started to decrease a lot and in the other hand the 3rd in South America () is growing a lot, is really impressive. We are currently the favourites for the LA2028 quota
    • Last few weeks of the World Cup season for winter sports (and Junior Worlds, depending on streaming), Men's Curling Worlds, Saquarema Elite 16, and some tennis   That's it unless I'm missing something, not much going on    Which is a good thing honestly, very busy next couple of weeks.
    • What happened to Brazil's women's team? On the other hand it looks like Argentina may be the top South American team on the women's side. Defeating Spain, China and South Africa was unlikely up until this year
