"how much could waste products (food waste, sewage, yard debris, agricultural byproducts etc) offset current energy needs?"
That's why they're calling them BB's.. and I suspect they will be more highly 'respected BB's' as Our Daddy's ol' BunkerBusters get less and less reliable. As I'd say to Boof's initial remark upthread, anybody who is brewing up BioDiesel these days is likely NOT an advocate of keeping 800 million vehicles running, and that a major (implicit) aspect of their plan includes restructuring to vastly reduce our ICE dependency.

But it's tricky, because an unintentional result sometimes is the maintainence of the illusion that alternatives are all we need.
I just noticed we have a high number of Bobs and Robs at TOD. Anyway restructure yes. Solar panels on all roofs manage all wastestreams and when the wind blows catch it. I've been in brasil now for 6 months without a car depending on public transport and bikes. Two cab rides for my sick puppy but other than that a well managed system works. I wait a bit here and there for a bus but I always have a text or two with me. People talk about nonnegotiable lifestyles....1980's lifestyle is different than todays. Sheesh some guy puts a lightbright up in bean town and they lock down several million americans. Do we need 800 million vehicles? maybe yes maybe no. Do we need 800 million FF driven vehicles? No.....
Les' hear it for the Robs! I'm one more. "Strong of heart"--perfect for a peakster!
