We havent been paying much attention to the small fry lately. So here we go. Has anyone noticed the growing number of smaller dairy farms producing power from the methane from their cow poop production. Its true.....further its a great way to offset the impact the co2 produced from our huge consumption of meat.... (Hey I like dead cow as much as anyone but we do eat too much) I mean heres this power supply that just grows and grows its a free byproduct of the meat industry that, so far, has been reletivly untapped.... We should collectively pester the large factory meat producers to adopt this practice. Aproach them with this arguement; "If a company's basic goal is to produce money for their stockholders, then think of all the extra money freed up if your power bill were zero or the power company owed you money? A small initial investment could save/make these larger companies millions and reduce dependence on fossil fuels which also qualifies them for larger tax breaks, and makes them look good to us tree hugging types." whew!!!!

world without end,

There is such little mention of factory farms on this site (a few but not much), then I come across this article. Are you serious? Do you have any idea what factory farms ("large factory meat producers") are like? Our objective should be to shut them down once and for all.
