The poo problem
Unburied waste left by bushwalkers and swimmers causes a range of pollution problems.National park rangers "find faeces near rivers, lakes, streams, and campsites and even next to toilets...We go along and pick those [poos] up and take them back to a toilet."
It is "expensive to install toilets in remote areas and fly the waste back to civilisation. It's about $3,000 an hour to pay for a helicopter to remove peoples' poo."
Rangers actively promote the poo pot.
