I just read an article in the latest issue of Discover about a plant that takes waste products and converts them to oil. Things like animal byproduct waste, tires, automobiles, etc can be converted into usable oil.
This is the company responsible.

This is an old Discovery article on them.

This is just like something out of Back To The Future and let's face it, Oil has the world screwed over a barrel. Not to mention the problem of what to do with waste. I'm no greeny, but anything that gets this country off the dependance of foreign oil, while helping to clean up the landfill's is a good thing in my book. If nothing else, that tree hugger, Bubba will enjoy it. 😛
