UBC launches world’s first mushroom-powered waterless toilet

#UBC #researchers are launching the world’s first #mushroom-powered #waterless #toilet, the #MycoToilet, at the UBC #Botanical #Garden on September 26.

The prototype turns human waste into nutrient-rich #compost using #mycelia—the root networks of mushrooms—and features a modern, #sustainable design that can be dropped into parks, remote communities and areas without #plumbing.
