Chicken companies like Perdue, Tyson and Montclaire are causing chicken poop to go into the rivers around the nation. Biomass would change that. Biomass is agricultural residue. Crop residues include all sorts of agricultural waste such as straw, bagasse, stems, leaves, stalks, husks, pulp, shells, peels, animal waste. Various animal wastes are suitable as sources of energy, forest residues, Industrial wastes and solid waste and sewage. These products can be decomposed and methane gas comes off of it. This methane can be burned and turned into steam to power a generator. The three companies named above could alone power almost a quarter of New York City, while at the same time fixing the environmental problem.

Signatures to this petition will be used to convince politicians to create tax benefits so that the companies are more likely to build the biomass facility. The signatures will also be used to convince the people working at the big companies that the public wants to see change from them.
