    European farts factories close

    European farts factories close

    Human waste turned into renewable gas to power homes | Environment | The Guardian


    National Grid believes that at least 15% of all gas consumed could be made from sewage slurry, old sandwiches and other food thrown away by supermarkets, as well as organic waste created by businesses such as breweries

    However, there are fears in the industry that the government's spending cuts could make it more difficult for companies to come up with the £10bn needed to develop the new plants and pipelines.

      Maybe we should scale down. Everyone has a fart-powered generator attached to their a*e. Theoretically you could charge a mobile phone with it.
