The 35 Most Bizarre Things ever used to make biofuels

2. Bunnies

Sweden’s got a problem: too many bunnies, breeding like, well, rabbits. Sweden’s got an unusual solution, trap ’em, kill ‘em, and burn ‘em to generate power. A perfect ecologically pure power source for plug-in electrics — oh, not really. Eew. We profiled the common problem and the icky solution in this story from last October. Apparently, Stockholm, which has an overstock of stray, wild rabbits that are destroying local parks, authorized a culling operation, and the killed bunnies were shipped for processing. The Stockholm facility is also incinerating dead cats, cows, deer and horses, according to the report. Yikes.
