Here's the answer to our $50 question:
What do we call garbage that is burned to make electricity?
1. Biomass.
Sorry...the correct answer is #1!
Biomass can be dead trees and branches, yard clippings, housing rubble, left-over crops, sawdust from lumber mills, trash, paper products and other household waste you'd normally send to the dump. Burned as a fuel, it generates enough electricity to light a city the size of San Diego!Your opponent can choose a new question.
