Answer 1

What drugs are you taking?

Answer 2

The theory is more solid than the Greenhouse one, and if anything I would do it out of oil-price protest. You could call it a dirty protest if you like. Titter...

Answer 3

Cow poo has methane in it, and that's what my 2 cars run on, so yes, in a way, cars can run on a form of cow poo. It's also called natural gas. It comes from the ground and is in dumps and sewage, etc. I'm sure it could be a big help in solving the energy crisis if people would just pay attention. Ford has been making these vehicles for years. They're cleaner for the environment and cheaper, too (I pay 64 CENTS per gallon for natural gas). You're on the right track!

Answer 4

I first heard of running a car on methane from pig and chicken manure about 35 years ago.  A friend of mine built an anaerobic composter back in the 80s.  His plan was to run his tractor on the methane but the tractor didn't have enough power when running on that stuff.  He heats his house and hot water with methane and his stove burns it, too.  If every large farm and sewage treatment plant recovered methane it could be a significant part of the energy puzzle but it won't be the whole solution.

Answer 5

I doubt that there is only one solution to the fuel crisis.  This could be a viable part of it if the technology was created to control the emissions that result from burning this fuel.  Cows already contribute significantly to greenhouse gases with the amount of methane they produce during their normal, smelly digestive processes.

Answer 6

Haha thats pretty cool. im with you on this one!

Answer 7

Answer 8

The cars round this area literally run on horse s**t; it`s all over the public footpaths as well as the roads.  The riders should have to carry their own shovels and `doggy` bags because their animals leave a lot more behind them than dogs whose owners get fined if they don`t clear up...

Have Top Gear considered the methane problem or the ensuing `aroma`?

Answer 9

I don't think that someone who cannot spell will ever solve the fuel crisis.
