I found this article about using rotten food and other table scraps as bio fuel. I thought it was really interesting.
It made me think of the scene on Back to the Future where Doc Brown dumps trash into his car as fuel. Back then, we thought it was just ridiculous, but now??
I'm not so sure!
I hope that more funding can be put into researching this type of thing. There are so many reasons we need to loosen our reliance on oil. This is a big reason that I hope a democrat makes it into office. The republicans tend to think the environment is just going to take care of itself. Or that we should keep doing things the way we are and in the future, technology will catch up! I couldn't believe it when I read that sentiment!
(The other day, we were talking about oil and politics and Belle said:
Excuse me! What oil mean?
Then I tried to explain oil and gasoline in a way a two year old would understand. It was really cute!)

It's hard to believe that Back to the Future is already over 20 years old. Yikes!
I agree...garbage would be a great fuel. I don't like the idea of the corn fuel.. there are starving people everywhere, and we're going to use our food for our cars? Hello!
