GLOBAL 3000 | Biogas for Chinas Farmers

Description: Methane may be produced by nature, but it is a greenhouse gas. The world climate council, the IPCC, estimates that half the world's methane emissions come from livestock and rice fields. China is the world's biggest agricultural producer and is expanding its animal husbandry to provide its population with meat. So the government is funding 3 million biogas tanks in Guangxi province to provide poor farming families with energy, while reducing methane emissions.
