A Plant Without Plants

In the debate over the energy crisis, many point to ethanol as a partial solution to our problem. I saw this article talking about an ethanol plant coming to Pike County and I said, "But we don't have any corn..." Well it turns out you don't need it. They're building an ethanol plant in a landfill and they're turning our garbage into fuel. How do you make a good deal better? Make it free! Yes, I said it, free! The company that is going to operate the plant is paying all of the upfront costs, so no taxpayers' dollars are going into this. I am completely behind this and am glad that it's coming to Pike County.
