The power of cows

Thursday, March 13th, 2008

PG&E in California is now utilizing cow manure as an alternative way to create energy. In Cincinnati, the Zoo is also using animal poo to generate power.

The city is not yet using cow poo for an energy source, but this city does have a history of unique and important cows like the infamous runaway a few years back. Practically as famous for our historical relationship with (flying) pigs as for anything else, Cincinnati has a one-of-a-kind history with animals and would be paying homage to our ancestry to setup a broad program to turn animal waste into a new source of energy.

Maybe we can change our moniker to the “City where pigs light up the sky”.
