Zap that Trash
September 10th, 2006
Sitting on the couch reading The Washington Times and thinking about trash. Oh yeah watching the Manning, Manning match up on NBC too! I just found a really cool article on some trash technology. So here is the deal, It looks like the people in St. Port Lucie, FL are going to have this trash incinerator that will burn trash and sewage at a temperature as hot or hotter than the sun. The $425 million facility will help produce steam for the generation of electricity and rock-like material for the formation of new roads. This is really cool, and will definitely help with trash problems. The article goes on to say there are not many if any toxins and is very clean. The question Jen has (she was sitting on the couch as I was reading this to her) is, what are the impacts on global warming? She didn’t say it like that though.

Burning trash, that doesnt seem a proper way out, won’t it affect the environment badly?
