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.

    • Here, the Masters is on national TV.  Are major golf tourneys in the USA shown in other places?   (I work at a private school that's just about an 80-minute drive from Augusta.  Many of my students are able to go watch the tournament in person.  I've never paid attention to golf until this year...it's a beautiful course!)

    • Orban had one big plus- he built modern football stadiums in Hun and several modern swimming pools in Budapest. Maybe we should hire him as our sports minister and infrastructure
    • Btw. I once read that Denmark has the best democracy in the world - in the sense that it has the most equal system, unlike, for example, North Korea or Eritrea on the other side of the political ocean.
    • This is Tisza's only chance, because without a constitutional majority, Orbán would return for several years. Hopefully, Tisza wins that majority.
    • Seems like a supermajority for Magyar
    • so, one of the most boring world cup stages ever has ended    if it wasn't for  and , winning 1 gold medal each, a  sweep would have come true, as they won all the remaining 8 gold medals (and a bunch of silver and bronze, too)    while some sports are brcoming more and more global, it looks that (rifle and pistol) shooting is going the other way round, it's becoming less and less global, with just 1 or 2 dominating Countries and a few others filling the (minor) gaps here and there, with always less Nations capable to win medals (only 12, out of 10 competitions) and even make the final    now the Rifle and Pistol world cup takes a break to allow most Continental championships to take place between the end of April and May.   It will be back in  Munich in the last week of May.   In the meantime, the Shotgun specialists will be on stage from May 2nd through May, 11th in  Almaty.
    • Orban is finished. I hope Meloni doesn't do him asylum in Italy
