The only reference I found on Journey to Forever was that Mike Pelly using salvage scrap metal for his equipment. I know plastic is not compostable, obviously it needs some pre-treatment before even attempting to bring plastic back into nature. Maybe use ultraviolet rays to degrade plastic? How about metal cans, can the natural decay of metal be accelerated? What are consumer-grade metal cans made of? _______________________________________________ Biofuel mailing list Biofuel@sustainablelists.org http://sustainablelists.org/mailman/listinfo/biofuel_sustainablelists.org Biofuel at Journey to Forever: http://journeytoforever.org/biofuel.html Search the combined Biofuel and Biofuels-biz list archives (50,000 messages): http://www.mail-archive.com/biofuel@sustainablelists.org/ _______________________________________________ Biofuel mailing list Biofuel@sustainablelists.org http://sustainablelists.org/mailman/listinfo/biofuel_sustainablelists.org Biofuel at Journey to Forever: http://journeytoforever.org/biofuel.html Search the combined Biofuel and Biofuels-biz list archives (50,000 messages): http://www.mail-archive.com/biofuel@sustainablelists.org/
