The Power of Cow Manure

No, this isn't a commentary on the recent political conventions, it's a look at how a 1,200-cow farm in Vermont has turned cow manure into energy. Specifically, using a device called an anaerobic digester to turn cow poo into electricity.

A potentially important development, since if you're a dairy farmer there's no shortage of cow chips being created. What's more, the cow droppings can also be converted into bedding for the cows.
