It notably does not use fossil fuels in the process. I knew that liquor would save us all some day.
That's awesome! I've been saying this shit forever. I keep telling people that fossil fuels will be all but obsolete way before we run out. This technology, as it becomes cheaper and more efficient, will replace fossil fuel consumption, and will also be better for the environment. This is the way of human history. We just keep making our lives better by increasing efficiency and improving our environment. And this is all driven by capitalism.
