Errmm... Doesn't it just end up in the water/sewage system and have to be dealt with there, though? The Dog Waste Digester sounds like a better option, ecologically.

I used to work in an urban park/local nature reserve, and the amount of dog faeces deposited there was phenomenal. Many local dog owners seemed to have the attitude that because the park was a public space, it was OK for them to bring their pets there to evacuate their bowels and leave it for others to deal with. Seems kind of selfish and irresponsible to me. I love dogs, but boy did I get sick of treading in the stuff... And every time we had a group of school kids in studying nature, half of them would either step in it or fall in it at some point during the day. Bleghh.
