Sanitation
Even though the picture to the left is exactly what we do not want to happened to a water closet, this one is abandoned, and cleanliness is why we always water closets. Imagine have to go to the bathroom with nowhere to go. Where would you go? What would you do?
With sanitary toilets we can prevent sores, illness, disease, odor, and even death. The safest option when no toilet is present is to dig a hole in the ground and refill it when finished.
