They do. They bleach the pulp. The pulp itself is still an enormous disposal problem and has wrecked some fine lakes. Lake Nipissing was once the finest pickerel fishing lake in the world. It was ruined with mercury, wood chip and pulp waste by Dupont and the saw and pulp mills of the north shore.(Sturgeon Falls). Dupont in North Bay used to pay truck drivers 150 dollars a load to dump methyl mercury waste onto the ice of the lake, and keep it a secret. Methyl mercury causes Minamata disease, a neurological wasting with no cure.

Ms. Meyer's concoction is totally unecessary. If you crap in the bush, take note of the location and come back a day later. There will be nothing left. Flies and beetles will have disposed of it completely. Nature sanitizes all things by oxidization and consumption. Chlorination of such concnetrated hydrocarbons is inadvisable because of the formation of carcinogenic PCB's. Water for instance should be filtered with charcoal and sand before chlorination. Free chlorine should be about .50 PPM.

I saw the book at Chapters last month ---- a small book that costs $10!

She also recommends digging a hole using a foldable stainless steel trowel, defecating into the hole and burying the poop. But, prior to doing this, she strongly recommends that the would-be pooper should scout the terrain to choose the best possible spot so as to ensure that subsequent water run off (due to rain) will not pollute natural bodies of water, etc.

What a recommendation! Who really cares to do all that when nature calls one to drop one's pants pronto, eh? Especially when one's face and ass are hidden to others in the woods!
