POPSA new one even for me!! I'm still not convinced that's safer than traditional methods!! We do have a natural tendancy to overlook certain facts. :)

POPSGaia's evil twin: Is life its own worst enemy? Here is a wrenching change of perspective! Life keeps upsetting its own apple cart, the Medean trap. We humans are just part of this self-destructive life force, yet we are aware of it. Like everything else, planets live and die.

POPSFactory farms get a pass on reporting greenhouse gas emissions
A lot of us question why Americans should care about livestock poop, particularly in the context of greenhouse gas emissions. Animal manure and livestock produce methane and nitrous oxide, which are about 23 and 300 times respectively stronger than carbon dioxide. According to the EPA GHG Inventory, manure is the 5th largest source of methane and the 4th largest source of nitrous oxide in the U.S. It results in more than twice as many emissions as waste incineration and natural gas systems in the U.S. The way in which CAFOs pool their manure is a large part of the problem. When stored in pits and lagoons as is typical on factory farms, the manure breaks down anaerobically, in the absence of oxygen, which exacerbates methane emissions. The EPA has acknowledged that when manures are distributed on pastures as would be typical in a grass-fed animal system, methane production is limited. Thus, there are proven ways to reduce methane emissions in manure management.

POPSOur tax dollars at work...lol Measuring Cow Burps in Fight Against Climate Change...... this almost as bad as those $500 a piece fountain pens we pay for. Whats next a study on how many times a sparrow farts

POPSTop 6 Ways to convert Poop into Electricity
Turd Cell Smashers Destroying the cell walls in sludge—by heating it under pressure, zapping it with ultrasonic waves, or pulsing it with electric fields—boosts its methane production by 50 percent or more in anaerobic digesters Geological Toilets Last summer, Los Angeles began injecting sludge into a mile-deep well, where pressure and heat are expected to release enough methane to power 1,000 homes. The well also dissolves and sequesters carbon dioxide that the sludge would normally release, removing the equivalent exhaust of about 1,000 cars per year. Feces Ponds As a cheaper green option, some 50 waste plants in 20 countries have installed versions of UC Berkeley professor William J. Oswald's Advanced Integrated Wastewater Pond Systems Technology--large open-air ponds that primarily rely on anaerobic digestion and photosynthesis to break down sludge and convert it into a fertilizer or animal feed of nitrogen-rich algae. The algae in turn can be used as a feedstock for biofu

POPSICE AGE Below the oceans, and other places, there is an apparently over abundance supply of methane gas trapped. "Methane ice" 1 liter equals 168 liters of Methane gas....Very, Very bad greenhouse gas....

POPSMicrobe-powered ‘fart’ machine stores energy A device that can both improve fuel cell technology and entertain 12-year-old boys. That's what I call the modern biathlon. All in all a very ingenious and creative way to use micro organisms for our benefit.

POPSgreenhouse gases pose threat to public health-EPA finds based on rigorous,per reviewed scientific analysis of 6 gases-carbon dioxide,methane,nitrous oxide,hydrofluorocarbons,perfluorocarbons and sulfur hexafluoride-the science shows that concentrations of these gases are at an all time high as a result of human emissions and they are likely the cause of the increase in average temperatures and other changes in our climate- and that these gases impact human health in several ways

POPSCows With Gas Other institutes, such as the New Delhi-based The Energy Research Institute (TERI), are working on methane capture strategies. One long-running project has been biogas production — cow dung is utilized to make biogas for use in kitchens and even compressed biogas for use in vehicles. "Biogas plants have been very successful," says R.K. Rajeshwari, a fellow at TERI, "Farmers are able to use biogas in their kitchens, to light lamps and to even drive vehicles."
