A problem that affects the daily life of more than a hundred million people is inadequate sanitation and a lack of proper sanitation facilities. For example, only 87% of Indians in urban areas have access to a sanitized latrine, while only 33% of Indians in rural areas have access to a toilet, (The Guardian). This statistic is alarming, as it increases the susceptibility to diseases such as

In order to address the issue of clean water availability, the objectives must address multiple levels of the social-ecological model simultaneously. Three overarching objectives will be addressed. 1) The current public water system must increase in capacity. The current public water system is small and up to 40% of households do not have access to the public water system (2). 2) Due to the rural nature of the population, expansion of the current system should begin

Thesis/Central Idea: Accessibility to clean water is a global issue that can greatly reduced through water filtration, chlorination, and collection grids.

A stable and solid foundation is the key to any societal success and strength. We must first establish rules about our sanitation. It will no longer be tolerated to have such unsanitary conditions. We will have designated authorized sanitation areas. These areas will be rotated throughout the year depending on the climate and raining season. We must establish to clean environment to minimize our illness and diseases. Any violation of these areas will be met with strong restrictions for a first offense: no food for one week. The second violation will result in banishment from the island.

Sanitation, even in healthcare facilities, is a problem. In southeast Asia, 42% of healthcare facilities don’t have adequate toilets. In sub-Saharan Africa, 36% of healthcare facilities don’t even have soap

In the article, “ Modern Marvels” by John Loocrapper, it conveys the history of toilets and toilet paper along with how they are made. In the ancient cities of Harappa and Mohenjo-Daro located in present day Pakistan, they had the most advanced plumbing system of the world. It was very important to drain the sewage out of the cities so the smell would not cover a vast part of their area and they did just so. These devices have changed from then but most of the concepts that were created are still in use today. This piece of literature supports the claim how a toilet is made, the history of toilet also known as the evolution, and the background of toilet paper.

Before the earthquake in 2010, the water and sanitation situation was already very troubling. The provided services were defined by low potable

Some people don't know but the toilet originated in rome, it may not have been clean but it was the only way at the time to do your business. If you were rich you would have our own private toilet made of limestone, but for the poor you would have to use a communal bathroom made of wood. they had no toilet paper they used a sponge on a stick submerged in a bucket. The communal toilets were believed to have spread diseases which does not surprise me at all but i think the sponge on a stick idea is

One of the cultural challenges that company is facing is soiled toilet paper scattered or piled all over the plant’s bathroom floors. In Mexico and other Latin American countries, the sewer or wastes pipes leading from the building are usually small in diameter compared with U.S. standards. In

However, toilet provision has remained inadequate in most communities, which lack even rudimentary toilet access (Gershenson & Penner, 2009; Molotch & Noren, 2010). According to Kitchin &

Watch this TED Talk video by Francis de los Reyes:‘Sanitation is a basic human right’ and post a comment on the discussion forum in relation to the role of government in funding these sorts of projects.

If the Anthropocene is about sinks, and toilets then we are all living in one big bathroom. The Toilet Assumption has led us to overuse materials, resources, and even people without regarding the long term effects. If the consequences do not affect us then we are either ignorant enough to assume they don’t exist or we are apathetic enough to ignore them. I’m not sure which is worse. Ignorance, although troubling, can be forgiven, but can we forgive apathy? We know that there is truly no “away” and that every time we flush a toilet, or throw away garbage, or say goodbye to someone that they continue existing, but do we really understand this? The Anthropocene is

The unplanned urbanization adds challenges to sanitation system design. Still many places are far from proper latrines and hygiene concept. The important field like water and wastewater treatment, solid waste management, disposal methods seems far beyond. News of the death of people due to dysentery is no new headline of a newspaper, whose sole prompt is due to lack of pure drinking water and proper sanitation facility. In such scenario, I think environmental engineering is the only field I should contribute to.

Another area that needs consideration is the horrible condition of public toilets. The shortage of public toilets is a big challenge, hence people are compelled to use open spaces to answer the call of nature. The toilets that do exist are in such pathetic condition that one cannot use them.
