poop," Mr Gates joked at the conference. "And I definitely never thought that
Melinda would have to tell me to stop talking about toilets and faecal sludge at
the dinner table."
“我不得不说，十年前，我从没想过我会对大便有这么多的了解，”盖茨在会上开玩笑说。 “我更没想到梅琳达需要告诉我不要在餐桌上谈论厕所和粪便。”

policy priority.

operating off-grid to separate liquid and solid waste and remove harmful
by-products.

of off-grid solutions will scale."
