I would LOVE to have been in that brainstorming meeting...."So what can we make out of elephant poo people?" My sister is going to Sri Lanka in October, perhaps I'll have her bring me back some poo paper. I can investigate the smell issue further, I'm not so sure I believe it doesn't reek! :) Sweet!

The mission behind the poo paper appears to be that elephants in Sri Lanka are being killed simply because the sheer size and appetite of the elephants are to big for humans and the large animals to co-exists without the destruction of farmland. The proposed purpose of the paper is that because the elephants produce an average of 500 lbs of dung each day (wow) the clean, cellulose based, renewable resource gives the local population a resource and a reason to have more tolerance for these elephants. With more support of the paper it may also become an economic source to support the country or at least a means of compensation for the farmers who have lost their farm. Pretty cool- thanks to Andy Bonner for leaving the poo on my desk http://www.mrelliepooh.com/
