Description
Summary
Today, human waste has become a taboo subject. We see it as an embarrassing byproduct that we want to flush out of our cities and our minds as quickly as possible. Yet, only a few decades ago, it was valued as a vital fertilizer. It was only with the massive shift to synthetic fertilizers—which harm both the environment and our health—that we completely lost sight of its worth.
In this book, Fabien Esculier shows in an entertaining way why our waste is a crucial resource for the future. He retells the history of our cities, fields, and rivers, making one thing clear: we need to start valuing these materials again. It is time to give back to the earth what our bodies produce.
