I also like the sustainable counters made with recycled products. I try and go green (a little bit) by using low VOC paint in our home. It's amazing how it doesn't smell at all.

The building that housed the School of Natural Resources and Environment added composting toilets and they had major problems with flies being all around the toilets and getting into the classrooms... not sure what they ever did to fix that problem, but I agree... you have to draw the line. No composting toilet in my place, thanks!
