ericadawn16This is totally awesome!
Yes, some businesses can do the right thing. Alaskan Brewing Company has an "aim to have a zero-net negative effect upon our environment by reclaiming and reusing at least as much waste and emissions as we produce."
This could just be pretty words on a website but they have actually bought and installed a special furnace in order to power their brewery by using the biowaste they produce!
This also eliminates shipping costs for disposing of the biowaste in other ways...other companies really need to look into this. Scientists are also developing ways of using human waste as biofuels.
