Zoo Share
Canada’s first Zoo-Biogas Plant is turning poo from the Toronto Zoo and inedible food waste into renewable power for the Ontario grid.
This not-for-profit co-operative is generating renewable power, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and returning nutrients to the soil. Nearly 60% of food produced in Canada is rotting in landfills and creating methane gas.
Instead of letting these greenhouse gases escape, this biogas is captured and stored until it can be used as a cooking fuel, to power vehicles, and to produce electricity.
