Check out http://practicalaction.org/ for a lot of ecofriendly/appropriate tech information. It's an interesting site, data available as PDF's but they ask questions about who's wanting the information and who it will benefit- for each download! If you can stand just reading/copy and paste the text version you can bypass this bit. I suspect the data is over simplified and difficulties glossed over (checked out a couple I know something about and they definitely were!) Also for composting toilets see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composting_toilet
