ABOUT THIS TALK
Anaerobic digesters sit at the intersection of agriculture, energy, and environmental protection. In this presentation, Jessica Niekrasz will offer a beginner-friendly overview of how these systems turn organic waste — like manure — into renewable natural gas. We’ll also explore the technology, policies, and partnerships that make them work, along with the challenges and opportunities of turning waste into a valuable resource.
