Dean of Invention- How Cow Waste Generates Electricity

Don't miss Planet Green's hit new show Dean of Invention, premiering Fridays at 10 pm starting October 22. http://planetgreen.discovery.com

Methane is one of the strongest sources of energy on the planet and cows are the largest producers of methane. Take a look at how one Vermont farm is using cow waste to not only power their farm, but 400 other community homes!

I think Wisconsin farmers need to implement this type of farming community. As well it would do the entire worlds farming community. More innovation that can produce fuel to run and sustain family farmers and energy providers alike... As well no more cow dung to pour into into 'lagoons' that can/do poison the land and waterways...
