Methane from compost

Baldwin City, KS

I read/heard recently that some remote foreign areas are digging a three feet square by three feet deep pit to hold their compost. They covered this with a plastic cover and were extracting the methane generated as fuel for a small cooking fire.

Sounds like a good idea although I probably won't do it.
