At least if you live in a tropical area?
The picture I'm getting is that we have more than enough answers but little to no action. I know many of us here are working on helping the planet/ourselves, I am not talking about individuals.

I believe corporate and Govt interests will not allow too much bio-fuels and alternatives to get in the market till the same people controlling oil can control diesel trees, and TP hydrogen, and anything else they deem a threat to their global monopoly.

We knew about this tree in the 1600's!

When you look at what is already possible. Diesel Trees. Recycling oils as bio-fuel. Terra Preta with CO2 sequestration and synfuel. Aquaponics - clean aquaculture, clean hydroponics. Extraction plants that filter landfill wastes into valuable commodities. Black Soldier flies - consume 15kg waste (which can include manure and meat scrap) per m2 per day and convert it to 3 kilos high protein feed and 0.75 kilos friable soil amendment/worm bedding. Plus, plus plus!

So many answers are there already. It is our governments and corporations letting us down. imo...
