About

Sanitation and Health Rights in India (SHRI) fights alongside communities to end open defecation as a key step in an ongoing struggle for health equity and social and economic justice. The company has built a toilet that converts poop into methane gas that powers a water filtration system that creates clean drinking water. SHRI then sells the water in the local community to make the whole system sustainable. Source: TechCrunch
