  1. There are quite a few cities collecting methane from sewers and dumps. To bad it only supplies a small part of the energy needs of those cities.

  2. It's done in many places, and quite a bit in the larger industrialized places. Just a little fresh manure to "seed" methanogens and then keep them fed will produce a lot of methane. The problem is that a large amount of food is needed and it still produces a lot of CO2, both in the fermentation tank and with the burning. If one takes the time to check that, it is quite an additional boon.

  3. It's the collection of f**t from cows that might be a problem...

  4. The methane operated car:

    12 Taco holders and 6 butt-plugs.

    Seriously, methane from anerobic digestion of animal manures, human waste, and landfills has been collected for many years.

  5. yes, i knew that...amazing, huh?
