Your Tax Dollars at Work… Obama Commits $5 Million to Go Green With Cow Poop


(Red Bubble)

The Obama Administration committed $5 million to use cow manure to heat an ethanol plant creating 15 jobs.
The Examiner reported, via Weasel Zippers:

President Obama’s Department of Agriculture (USDA) committed $5 million today to the construction of a “biogas anaerobic digester” that will use cow manure to heat an ethanol plant and create 15 permanent jobs.

Western Plains Energy, LLC, a Kansas company, will use the money to “utilize waste energy resources from a local cattle feedlot to replace almost 90 percent of the fossil fuels currently used” at the plant.

“Animal waste from a local feedlot will be the primary feedstock that Western Plains will use for the digester,” USDA added. “Support for renewable energy projects such as these is an example of the many ways USDA is helping revitalize rural economies.”
