"the least efficient mechanism"
I would say the opposite with respect to oil consumption which I think is what is generally considered in such a case. What did you have in mind?
- psaintla 12y agoSo you believe that it is more energy efficient for a ton of compost to be moved by humans than by a single truck making one trip? What about all of the oil it takes to generate the food to feed the humans who move the compost? I don't have time to do the math at the moment but I hope someone else does. That sounds dubious at best.
- herge 12y agoHow much extra food does it take? It's not that strenuous to use a bike, just takes time. Also, if the compost is used to grow food, it doesn't take much oil to feed the biker!
- pbreit 12y agoIt's employees biking for fun and exercise (and good). Sheesh.
- psaintla 12y agoI apologize if you thought I was being rude, if it's all for fun and exercise that's cool. If it's more hipsterism then not so much.
