Keep that sh*t out of the rivers and oceans. It all came from very recently fixed atmospheric CO2, let it go back to CO2, and turn a few wheels in the process. AR, IA, and DE could become biofuel powerhouses, along with NE and KS. If you're going to process chicken shit for the fuel, you should be able to recover a lot of nitrogen for fertilizer as a bonus.
