Worms may not have spines, but they’re doing some back-breaking sewer work in more than 4,000 toilets across India.
Since 2015, a creative new type of toilet called the Tiger Toilet has been popping up outside homes and schools around the country.
From the outside, this toilet looks like any other pit latrine. But it doesn’t smell like one. Instead, it comes with a built-in population of tiger worms.
“Their natural breeding, natural habitat is in cow dung heaps, or horse sh*t heaps, that kind of thing,” Ajeet Oak, director of the Tiger Toilet company, told Business Insider. “Poop. That’s where they like to live.”
The toilets involve no traditional flushing and aren’t hooked up to a sewer system. Instead, the worms are contained in a container below the toilet, and they feast on faeces.
The creatures’ activity leaves behind a mix of water, carbon dioxide, and a small amount of wormy compost (that’s technically the worms’ poo, though it’s much less toxic and more nutrient-rich than ours).
The resulting water isn’t clean enough to drink, but it “can go into the ground and it sort of gets filtered naturally from there on,” Oak said. No wastewater treatment plant needed.
“Logging companies keen to exploit Brazil’s rainforest have been accused by human rights organisations of using gunmen to wipe out the Awá, a tribe of just 355.”

When Ra built the world from the primordial waters, Ma’at was set in motion, she who is goddess and concept. Justice and The Right are hers, and through her they are manifested upon the earth. She is the perfect harmony that maintains the universe.
hi! I recently became kemetic after being reached out to by Anubis. I'm very excited to have finally found the right religion for me, however, I don't know where to turn to learn more information. I know some very basic things but there is much I have yet to learn. Do you have any good resources for a newbie kemetic? Preferably free ones as I am very tight on money. Any tips you can give would also be very appreciated. Thank you for your time!
