Drink More Beer and Save the Environment ;o)
« on: May 02, 2007, 11:34:08 AM »
Just heard a news clip that Foster's Brewery has developed a fuel cell that runs on brewery waste water producing electricity and clean water as a bi-product.

I knew there was a higher reason for my taste for hops. ::)

Considering the amount of brewery waste water that I produce when drinking beer, and considering the amount of beer that I drink, maybe I should get one.

I think they tap the waste water a bit farther up-stream. ;D

Water evaporates from the sea and forms clouds. ::)

The clouds come inland and dump their load onto us. :(

The brewers collect the water and make it into beer. ;D

We pay good money for their beer and most of it is just water that they got for free. >:(

When we drink it, it makes us want a pee and we do because we can. :D

When we have pissed it all down the toilet, the water company recycle it back to the sea.  :o

Water evaporates from the sea and forms clouds. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

There is only so much water in the world....enjoy it.  8) 8) 8)
