Ethical behavior
is doing the right thing when no one else is watching - even when doing the wrong thing is legal.

Co-digesters are machines that take in animal waste, industrial food waste, and other toxic substances and turn it into fuel. The negative public health and environmental impacts of co-digesters and the waste they produce- digestate- remain largely unknown. Still, companies such as VANGUARD RENEWABLES are pushing rural communities to approve co-digester proposals faster than neighbors can understand the risks and states can regulate their harms.
Proponents of co-digesters typically use the same talking points. A group of local residents in Wisconsin, with the help of national resources, have put together a comprehensive guide that covers some of the most common digester myths and pair them with research that challenges those points.
