A remarkable food production plant is being assembled in a former meat processing facility in Chicago. It's remarkable because the waste from one type of food becomes the raw material for another. So "The Plant" will be producing Kombucha tea, fresh vegetables, tilapia, and beer...with virtually no waste!

    Max: Ouch is right. I'm not sure what happens to the CO2 from the biogas, but I hope to meet the designer next week. I'll ask your question and if I can, report back. - Jim Parks

    Wow, that's truly incredible although I can't imagine that it produces "all" of it's own energy. Surely this is still connected to the power grid? Hopefully we'll see lots of ideas like this coming out soon.

    When using organic material that decomposes, you are simply releasing the CO2 that was already in the air before the plant absorbed it. When you burn coal or oil, then you are releasing carbon that was in the soil. You have to look at the carbon cycle, not just at your carbon output.
