Added to the lack of “toilet flushing ability” report below …  but I can’t get out of my mind that picture of the undersea diver who came across an underwater pipeline than was deliberately pumping raw sewage in to the ocean .. he described how the fish and sea creatures were feasting on raw sewage discarding medical packages and everything unthinkable thing flushed down the toilet .. and these are the same fish that are caught and served in restaurants and homes …

Not to mention all the horrendous amount of impossible to calculate sum of  unretreived dumped into, washed out into, crashed into, sunk into and or buried out at ocean and seas …  that fish, crabs and other eatable sea creatures are feasting on all the time ….

Added to this … all the barrels of toxic waste that’s deliberately dumped to decay on ocean floors …

Geeeeeze … glowing half human half fish creatures could start standing up an walking out of the sea any day now …

Even celestials have been spotted discarding their waste of some kind in the oceans …

The design of community’s infrastructure is horrible ..it’s as if some sections are like doll houses … pretty on the surface but no sensible working innards …

It seems as if world developers or government divisions have had little or no respect or care for the Mother Earth or Her people … 

Six in 10 people worldwide lack access to flush toilets or other adequate sanitation

It may be the 21^st century, with all its technological marvels, but 6 out of every 10 people on Earth still do not have access to flush toilets or other adequate sanitation that protects the user and the surrounding community from harmful health effects, a new study has found. The research, published in ACS’ journal Environmental Science & Technology, says the number of people without access to improved sanitation is almost double the previous estimate.

Jamie Bartram and colleagues explain that the current definition of “improved sanitation” focuses on separating humans from human excrement, but does not include treating that sewage or other measures to prevent it from contaminating rivers, lakes and oceans. Using that definition, 2010 United Nations estimates concluded that 4.3 billion people had access to improved sanitation and 2.6 billion did not.

The new estimates used what the authors regarded as a more realistic definition from the standpoint of global health, since untreated sewage is a major cause of disease. They refined the definition of “improved sanitation” by discounting sewage systems lacking access to sewage treatment. They concluded that about 60 percent of the world’s population does not have access to improved sanitation, up from the previous estimate of 38 percent.
