Suspend your disbelief, folks—University of British Columbia brainiacs dropped the MycoToilet, a mushroom-powered potty that turns your poo into eco-woo without a flush! This cedar-clad, wheelchair-friendly throne in the woods uses fungi to munch on your dumps, teaming up with microbes to churn out 600 liters of soil and 2,000 liters of fertilizer yearly—no water, no electricity, no chemicals, no stench! Just four maintenance visits a year keep this green-roofed wonder humming. Prof. Joseph Dahmen’s brainchild ditches porta-potty nightmares for a “pleasant” nature vibe, perfect for parks or plumbing-free zones. Say goodbye to holding it till you see stars—this fungi-fueled loo is the low-flush revolution your backside’s been dreaming of.
Should governments be subsidizing more ecologically-friendly developments such as this? Let us hear your thoughts below. 👇
