Urine-powered restaurant opens in Melbourne...

A Melbourne restaurant with electricity powered by customer's urine has opened for business. The Greenhouse project uses by-products of agriculture for insulation and energy and was built using recycled materials, according to Smart Planet. Dutch designer Joost Bakker said: "Urine is incredible for nitrogen, it's so valuable - you only need the urine of 25 people to provide fertilizer for a hectare of crop. "I have designed the restaurant in reverse. I've started at the end; assessing the waste production, and worked back from there. "My dream has always been to build a restaurant that creates no waste and now I think I have achieved it!" Every part of the building is apparently 100% recyclable. |

Fair play to him, I heard about a power station that proposed to work via a local crematorium, at least this has no moral or ethical constraints lol
