“Dry toilets and composting” with Rodrigo Silva

Saturday | 16th of May | 3:00 p.m. | Salão Nobre – Ponta do Sol City Hall and Ponta do Sol beach

“Sanitários secos e compostagem”

"Dry Toilets and Composting" is an educational and practical workshop, lasting approximately 45 minutes, aimed at the general public. The workshop is divided into two parts: a classroom presentation session (approximately 25 minutes), covering topics such as the functioning of dry toilets, their ecological and water benefits, the composting process, and the agricultural use of compost; and a guided tour of the dry toilets and urinals installed on the beach during the festival (approximately 20 minutes), with a practical demonstration and time for questions.

The workshop is led by Rodrigo Silva, founder of Organic Phenomena, a company specializing in dry toilets and urinals based on Madeira Island.
