Learn the “how and why” of composting toilets and urine reuse, see projects from Mexico, China, Sweden, Zimbabwe, and the Bay Area. Share your composting toilet and urine reuse experiences and
learn from others.

When: Thursday February 25th, 7:30-9:00 pm.
Where: Common Circle Education 2130 Center St (near downtown Berkeley BART station)
Cost: $5-$20 sliding scale*

The presenter, Laura Allen, has  visited ecological sanitation projects in the U.S., Mexico, and El Salvador, and researched other projects around the world. She has had a composting toilet and urine harvesting system in her home for the past six years. As a founding member of Greywater Action, she leads hands-on workshops about
sustainable water systems.

*This is a benefit event for “Free the Hikers,” three Americans who have been detained in Iran for the past six months. One of the hikers, Sarah Shourd, is a close friend of Laura’s and they traveled throughout Mexico to conduct interviews with ecological sanitation experts when Laura was performing research for the book “Dam Nation: Dispatches of the Water Underground.” All proceeds from this event will support the legal fees and travel costs for the families of the three hikers.
