Sh*t Happens

Yes, pets mess up the lawns, driveways, hallways…almost everywhere. And all we can think of doing is getting rid of the dump asap. If we take a step back and look at the alternative then the ‘Convertor of Pet Waste’ doesn’t sound like a bad option. The device basically converts the pet’s dump into a useful biological fertilizer.

Convertor of Pet Waste is a 2012 red dot award: design concept winner.

Designers: Prof. Dai YunTing, Lu JunShi, Liu Fei, Jiang Ying, Yin HuiJing, Xia ZhenLi & Gao Juan

If it means less noise from multiple trucks I’m all for it!
