Waste Not, Want Not – Nutrient Recovery and Recycling
I just finished this video for work. It features CIRCUL8 Systems’ Gary Wegner talking about the power of poop and nutrient recovery. Instead of treating manure as “waste,” Wegner demonstrates that instead manure is an essential source of nutrients. If we waste manure, he says, we risk running out of the nutrients essential to growing plants, animals and ourselves.
For more information on why Gary’s work is so important, check out this article in Scientific American on a critical and rapidly diminishing resource: “Phosphorus Famine: The Threat to Our Food Supply.”
