Join the conversation about reclaiming our "waste" as resource!
The 11th Annual Rich Earth Summit, the global gathering on urine reclamation and ecological sanitation, took place in a two-part format: a place-based event on Cape Cod (October 15–16), followed by a global virtual convening (November 12–14).
Hosted by the Rich Earth Institute, the Summit brings together researchers, regulators, planners, designers, and community members to explore how urine diversion can serve as a practical, cost-effective option for preventing nutrient pollution in sensitive watersheds—while contributing to sustainable agriculture and climate resilient infrastructure.
