Why did Bill Gates display a jar of poop in Beijing? - The Hindu

As one of the world’s richest men and most active philanthropists, Bill Gates usually has his hands full. Just not with poop.

So it came as a surprise when the founder of Microsoft brandished a jar of human waste at a forum on the future of the toilet in Beijing on November 6.

The stunt was an effort to draw attention to a problem affecting developing countries around the world: not enough toilets.

Indian government is also willing to make India ODF(Open Defecation Free) by encouraging making of toilets and providing financial help for the same.

This toilet prototype presented by Bill Gates could be a revolutionary as it is completely free from pollution and save a lot of water.

Does anybody really believe this is real Poo? No I don't and I don't care what Bill Gates want to re-invent the toilet. Serious I live with a compost toilet and everything goes back to nature. You definitely can't beat the process of mother nature Poo Gates!

Getting human waste taken care of in a better way could impact human health in developing countries in ways we cannot even imagine. It is still a big problem in many parts of the world today. Since you are from India I guess you know that even better then me @chetanpadliya

Ha ha, this is so interesting to see and what a photo of the richest man drawing attention to something that is worthless to bring out a point.

I didn't realize poop was such a problem in other parts of the world.  🤔
