In April, the Massachusetts Alternative Septic Test Center, a Division of Barnstable County Health and Environment, launched the Waste No Water tour, a 10+ library series to engage the public in over 10 Cape towns, focusing on the wastewater successes and challenges each town faces. In each of their events, they kick off the conversation with a showing of the recent Scientific American documentary that featured MASSTC’s efforts. Anyone interested in the topic of wastewater is invited to better understand how innovative/alternative systems, including urine diversion, are just one important piece of the ongoing wastewater puzzle.

Here are the current scheduled dates and times:

April 8th (National Water Week): Centerville Public Library, 11am-12pm

April 22nd (Earth Day): South Yarmouth Public Library, 11am-12pm. Check out our favorite water-related book reading list we put together with them on their website!
