Human waste to power streetlights

To prove the age old adage “there is a silver lining in every cloud”, a bio-gas plant in an Indian town is capable of generating up to 3,000 watts of electricity a day – thanks to human waste. Talk about an effective way of reigning in all those gases in a beneficial manner for everybody! Guess they could probably lump all that cow poo as well to churn out more juice. This electricity generated will be used to power streetlights in the vicinity.
