There are countless examples of biogas being created from human source, eg half of Rwanda's prisons use it (they also won an Ashden award). It's a brilliant way to turn waste into resource. You'd need the cow dung for volume. rose (author of The Big Necessity: The Unmentionable World of Human Waste and Why it Matters) This is great. but why don’t you use human excrement too?

Hope it starts a grass root movement that can replace the need for fire wood in poor communities. We know the adverse impact of deforestation on climate which causes flooding, and loss of good top soil. There is no shortage of food waste, agricultural and animal waste in villages. With support from UN, the Local lending institutions should offer 60 month- low interest loans to help people build such systems and be able to live with nature. It is time we stop destroying nature and live with it smartly and help our environment. Are the Leaders in poor country ready to lead? Good luck to all who follow this example.

I apologize if you have already covered this or I missed it, but what type of supply do you need in order to produce enough biogas for you/family? That is to say, is it something you can only do if you have a herd of animals or can it also be done on a smaller level?
