Fuel from human waste!

Hear hear! The greatest news of this year is the proposed production of fuel from human waste. can there be better news for the world who is always on the lookout for alternate energy sources?

The U.S. city of San Antonio unveiled a deal on Tuesday that will make it the first U.S. city to harvest methane gas from human waste on a commercial scale and turn it into clean-burning fuel.

The city approved a deal where Massachusetts-based Ameresco Inc will convert the city's biosolids into natural gas, which could generate about 1.5 million cubic feet per day, said Steve Clouse, chief operating officer of the city's water system.

If this works out, will it encourage us to eat more?
