Did you guess burning garbage like homeless people? You win the prize! What's the prize? A big pile of burning garbage.
This quote is hilarious in it's distortion of the facts:
"By switching to waste-to-energy (WTE), our greenhouse gas emissions for solid waste will be reduced to zero," said Nancy Giammatteo, director of Planning and Environmental Management.
Of course our greenhouse emissions for 'solid waste' will go down. But our greenhouse emissions for BURNING FUCKING GARBAGE will go through the roof.
This is all doubletalk. GW is not doing this to help the environment. They're doing it to save a few bucks on electricity at the expense of the environment. Which, I'll add, is fine with me. I just don't like the lies.

But the burning garbage gives the GW campus the good smokey smell that we all like...
its all going to turn into stars though...
That doesn't sound right, but I don't know enough about stars to refute it.
