In some places people are using cow poop is being used to make energy. This is done by a machine called a digestor. There are only two dozen in the United States. The farms that own these get paid by the electric company to run home in the town where the digestor is placed. The digestor also makes many byproducts as one farmer said. It heats his house, his milk house, makes bedding for his cows, fertilizes his farms, dries his corn and pasteurize the milk he feeds his calves. Not only that, it saves him MONEY. All the digestor does is transfer tiny bacteria particles to methane used for power, and it leaves behind liquid for fertilizing and a solid for cow beds. It was created so that there was a non-polluting way to get rid of poop, and a form of clean energy in which the U.S. is in need of. The only downfall is whether the machine will produce water pollution because of the run-off of cow poop from the farms. The process done by the digestor can be done with both cow and piggy poop. Even though it takes 20 days for one batch of poop to be completed it is still a large money saver, and a clean energy act. I'm sure their will be more used around the U.S.
