Get ready to hear a whole lot about poop. Cow poop to be precise. John Hanselman, the founder and Chief Strategy Officer at Vanguard Renewables, joins the show (15:52) to talk about the work he and his colleagues collaborate with farmers to make the agriculture sector more sustainable. They do this by building anaerobic digesters that take food waste, and yes, cow manure and turn it into products like natural gas, fertilizer, bedding for cows and cash for farmers.
