Think quick: what’s the link between Toyota, compost and cars? If you guessed that Toyota is using the methane gas produced by compost to create and power cars, you’d be right!
How does it work? In basic layman’s terms, Toyota is capturing the methane gas that’s produced in abundance by landfills. This gas is a byproduct of food rotting. The automotive manufacturer is then utilizing that gas to power both its plants and vehicles. At least, that’s the long-term goal.
