The Orion spacecraft is in "very good health", NASA says - there's just one wee problem. A minor issue with the toilet means astronauts are using “collapsible contingency urinal devices” while NASA tries to fix their waste water dumping system.

Day 082, orbit 1270 — How do you go to the toilet in space? That’s got to be one of the most frequently asked questions! The main difference is that toilets in microgravity are equipped with an aspiration system, to make sure nothing escapes and floats around. (And yes – I heard that it has happened before! 😄) This video shows routine maintenance of the Waste and Hygiene Compartment, or WHC – the ISS toilet system. I’m replacing the full solid‑waste container, in which solid waste is kept airtight. This operation typically takes place every 10 days, when the container reaches capacity. 🎥 European Space Agency / NASA #εpsilon • European Space Agencyspaceflight • NASA_Johnson • International Space Station

Instead of using toilet paper, would you share one brush for all to use and flush the toilet once a week to save money? • The "Xylospongium": A family of six shares a single sponge on a stick (a historical xylospongium) instead of toilet paper. After use, the sponge is rinsed and stored in a bucket of vinegar. • Weekly Flushing: The family flushes the toilet once a week on "Flushing Friday." • The "Poop Knife": They use a cutting tool to break down solid waste so it will flush without clogging the pipes, since the toilet is not flushed for days and no toilet paper is used.

Functional drain in one of Lusaka’s neighbourhoods. The community has taken it upon itself to ensure the the drain isn’t filled with solid waste and debris. Disaster Management is the responsibility of everyone. Community’s too have a crucial role to play.

While using the bathroom an astronaut notices something strange, after waste is processed in a sealed system small crystals are supposed to form on the inner wall of the toilet, but this time there's nothing there.

NEW: Chinese carmaker, Seres, has been granted a patent for a voice-controlled in-vehicle toilet so a passenger doesn’t have to leave their car to go to the bathroom. The patent filing shows the toilet being activated by voice commands and sliding out from the bottom of a seat. The system comes with a fan and exhaust pipe to make sure the odors make it out of the car, according to BBC. “Waste is collected in a tank that has to be emptied manually. The toilet also features a rotating heating element that evaporates urine and dries other waste,” BBC reported. No thanks. Video: NBC

Here comes a “waste management expert” 🤡. He beats Sellur Raju hands down. His brilliant idea to save ₹40 crore annual budget for Trichy Corporation: ➡️ Just dump all the garbage into a 1000-foot valley ➡️ Once it gets filled, cover it with 5–10 feet of soil ➡️ Problem solved 😂 No environmental study. No concern for groundwater. No concern for wildlife. No scientific waste processing. This is not waste management. This is disaster generation in advance.

BSWML has managed to complicate not just Solid Waste Management, but now even the GBA/BBMP property tax portal. #EaseOfLiving A simple property tax payment is turning into a confusing exercise due to poorly designed SWM user fee questions and unclear data requirements. There is no per-house waste weighment system, so all entries are merely estimates. And the framework imposes discriminatory charges on apartment communities that already segregate and compost their waste. Fix the SWM framework first—don’t make compliance harder for citizens. We seek urgent intervention from the Chief Commissioner, GBA. #BSWML Greater Bengaluru Authority BSWML KareeGowda Munish Moudgil

The Lagos State Government through the Ministry of the Environment and Water Resources, and the British High Commission in Nigeria are set to collaborate on the generation of energy from solid waste as well as recycling for an improved economy. Solid waste management is a major issue for the State, as the State generates 13,000 – 15,000 tonnes of waste daily. We have also identified that the PSP waste collection system needs support in finding creative ways to manage dumpsites. It is important to mention that the Babajide Sanwo-Olu -led administration has recently signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) on environmental issues with private investors on ways to generate energy from dumpsites. The State is open to investment opportunities and partnerships. It is time for stakeholders to have pure work plans and be very realistic and deliberate about actions to combat the environmental scourge. The Government would also continue to step up its advocacy and sensitisation against unwholesome waste disposal by the people. #AGreaterLagosRising The Lagos State Govt Babajide Sanwo-Olu LAWMA

Indian events—like weddings and religious functions—often leave behind a lot of waste, from leftover food to plastic litter. A simple solution is setting up an on-site “waste management pit,” where waste is segregated. Wet waste can be composted, while plastic and other materials are sent for recycling. This approach can reduce event waste by up to 50%, lowering environmental impact and easing pressure on sanitation systems. It’s cost-effective and easy to implement with basic planning. So, should every Indian event adopt this system?

🚨Happening Now🚨 Today, we joined the MMC of Environmental and Agricultural Management, Obakeng Ramabodu, on an oversight visit to assess the condition of waste management trucks. This exercise is part of our ongoing commitment to ensure that public resources are utilised effectively and that service delivery meets the required standards. We are particularly focused on compliance, operational efficiency, and whether the City is truly receiving value for money from its investments in waste management infrastructure. Residents deserve a clean, functional, and accountable system. #EFFInGovernment

A New Era of Sustainable Waste Management in Nagpur 🌱 Inspected the Nagpur Municipal Corporation's 'Integrated Municipal Solid Waste Processing Plant' at the Bhandewadi Dumping Yard, which is set to turn the vision of a waste-free city into reality. Operated by the international industrial conglomerate KEVA SusBDe, the facility will process 1200 tons of waste generated daily in Nagpur. To be completed in 3 phases, the project will ensure that all daily waste generated in the city is processed using advanced technologies. Through this project, both wet and dry waste will be collected and processed. The treatment process will generate biogas, high-quality compost fertilizer, and fuel pellets from dry waste. The Nagpur Municipal Corporation has allotted 30 acres of land for the initiative and will receive an annual royalty of ₹15,00,000 from gas sales. Directed the administration to extend all necessary support for its successful implementation. The biogas generated through this project will be utilised to supply CNG for 198 city buses. In addition, the project will provide energy pellets required by MAHAGENCO, further contributing to sustainable energy generation and resource utilisation. This landmark project will reinforce Nagpur’s position as a national model for sustainable solid waste management and environmentally responsible urban development. Minister Chandrashekhar Bawankule, MLA Krishna Khopde ji, MLA Pravin Datke, Nagpur Mayor Neetatai Thakre and other dignitaries were present.

🚨 Artemis II LAS Hatch Closed Successfully- Pad Clear Next!🚨 NASA teams have now closed the Launch Abort System (LAS) hatch on Orion during today’s Artemis II rehearsal at Launch Complex 39B, simulating the final moments of launch day pad operations. The LAS hatch provides access to the Orion crew module through the abort tower and must be securely sealed before launch. This system is designed to rapidly pull the astronauts away from the rocket in the event of an emergency during ascent; meaning hatch integrity is directly tied to crew safety. After closure, the closeout crew: • Verified mechanical seals • Checked environmental conditions inside the spacecraft • Performed leak checks • Confirmed Orion is properly configured for flight operations Securing this hatch is a major milestone and indicates the spacecraft is now essentially in its launch configuration. Next, once all inspections are complete, the closeout crew will depart the pad, leaving the rocket and spacecraft to continue through the countdown just as they would on launch day.

VIDEO | Pune: Vanchit Bahujan Aaghadi (VBA) president Prakash Ambedkar (Prakash Ambedkar) visits three-storey building collapse site near waste-to-energy plant in Pimpri-Chinchwad's Moshi area. He says, “You see, in cities today, waste management has become one of the biggest issues. In a city like Pimpri-Chinchwad, nearly 1,400 tonnes of waste are generated every day. If you calculate it for a month, it comes to nearly 34,000 tonnes, which is like a mountain of waste. Managing, processing, and disposing of such a large volume of waste is a major task. I don't think the corporators are equipped to deal with this issue. They consider waste to be just waste, but if you dig into it, there are many gases trapped inside. Releasing those gases can lead to more casualties. So it has to be handled very systematically. That is how the system should work.” (Full video available on PTI Videos -
