San Antonio is apparently turning human waste into natural gas, which can power furnaces and power plants. I don't know what San Antonio's problem is. Dont they have a large freshwater lake to dump it in like normal cities?

 

I am not classified as an environmentalist, but I assume turning a renewable resource like human waste into gas can only be a good thing. Wouldnt it be nice if Milwaukee looked into this?

Boy, gasoline would fall to about a nickel a gallon!

 

Based on my experience outlined on page 2 of the Big Mac thread, I agree.

Thanks, JimH5, I busted out laughing at work on that and had more than a few glances in cubie-land.

 

Doesn't SC Johnson do something with using a landfill to create power?
