Fossil fuel power station eat the fish regularly. The largest source of mercury contamination in the United States is coal-fueled power plant emissions. Several methods exist to improve the efficiency of fossil fuel power plants. A frequently used and cost-efficient method is to convert a plant to run on a different fuel. This includes conversions of coal power plants to biomass or waste and conversions of natural gas power plants to biogas.

In addition, waste-fired power plants can be equipped with material recovery, which

The series shows that co-operative strategies are often much more effective than predatory ones, as these often
