I love those new initiatives that show great inventiveness and forward thinking, with a tinge of humour. 🙂
A company called United Utilities has been given the green light to turn domestic wastewater into biogas that can then be fed back into the pipelines to heat people’s homes. The first such system will be put in place in Manchester and should be operational by 2011.
Imagine that, reducing pollution while staying warm at the same time. “Gardiloo” becomes “Garde au chaud”… no that’s not funny nevermind 😉
