The woke greenies want to get rid of cows too. In the future, we’re all supposed to own nothing, live in pods, eat only bugs and be happy.

I guess manure is as good of source as any biodegradable material.
Fun fact, 95% of methane from cow feed is generated as it rots on the ground after it leaves the cow. (Not in the cow)(The cow burp’s is mostly “air” swallowed from chewing it’s cud into foam) methane from manure becomes a valuable source of carbon dioxide when tilled into the ground as fertilizer for crops.

And then the company I work for buys those crops and turns it into bio fuel, a substitute for diesel fuel, so it may feel good about itself while it reduces the food supply driving up prices. They can’t remove all the water from biofuel as a cost saving measure, just as they don’t remove all the water from alcohol when it’s added to gasoline at a 10% mixture. I haven’t checked in a while, but 100 proof alcohol means for every 20 gallons of gas, you get a gallon of alcohol and a gallon of water which is not a fuel.
I suspect that’s what’s happening with my equipment because now I’m fueling 2000 gallons a day instead of 1000 per day. The “woke” mind virus still infests corporations across the country.
