A new study of the latest models of composting toilets, getting underway here in Sonoma County, hopes to set the stage for changing attitudes toward them.

While the actual study of the efficacy of new composting toilets is just getting started, it required quite some time just to get permission to do it, reports the county’s James Johnson.

At the OAEC’s rural campus, explains Program Director Brock Dolman, the three new devices will be installed in three separate buildings to facilitate a side-by-side comparison.

The OAEC created this short animation to make the case for wider use of composting toilets (Warning: some language not suitable for broadcast).
