We all talk about food being converted to fuel. We have become masters of trash talking our government about whatever they do.Instead of sitting on the duff and gaining weight, why not invent something that would help the humanity and the world. We use 30% of all energy produced in USA even though we are only 10% of the total world population. We are ready to make war on countries to achieve this goal and waste money and human lives.

Today they are well recognized as one of the leading companies in India for manufacturing bio gas out of trash.Here we have tons of food waste and other digestible waste that can easily be converted to energy and not dumped into land fill. I have talked to the inventor of this simple product. He appears be very content to supply to the local market and not seriously interested in trying to export. We do have such plants in Berkeley California at the USC. Unfortunately this one costs several millions and is very large for installation in the back yard.
This method has been successfully implemented in countries like East Africa (Uganda). If each one of us took energy saving seriously and tried one simple method, we can easily decrease our energy use by at least 40% I have and continuing to do my part. Are you willing to join?
