Description
As a civilization, we produce way too much trash, and we use way too much energy that is derived from fossil fuels and other unsustainable sources. What if we could kill two birds with one stone? What if we could turn trash into energy? Well we can! With the help of some plucky little microbes, of course. Anaergia is a company that is turning trash into renewable natural gas and fertilizer on an industrial scale. This is proven carbon-negative technology that is already widespread in Europe, and it is starting to be developed in North America as well. This is great news for the environment, so let's learn all about it!
