Things That Make You Go Green

I’m surprised I hadn’t heard about this sooner, but there is a grand experiment occurring in Reynolds, Indiana, also known as Biotown, USA.

According to the website, “the purpose of BioTown is to create a model community that is energy self-sufficient. BioTown will create a cleaner environment, develop new markets and enhance value for Indiana waste products while producing its own energy.

“BioTown will:

• Showcase efficient methods to convert biomass into energy,
• Encourage the use of biodiesel and ethanol,
• Use bioenergy to fuel homes and businesses throughout the town,
• Promote alternative energies across the United States,
• Educate Hoosiers and people across the United States about alternative and renewable energy, and
• Prove that agricultural energy is safe, reliable, and consistent.”

Check out the website for more information; it’s an interesting read and I’m looking forward to hearing more about it.
