I knew a guy in Sacramento who had developed a very clean back yard bio fuel plant. He had developed it over the course of a year getting it perfected and after all that he didn't have much nice to say about it. Finding a steady supply of fry oil was a pain, and the time he spent collecting and processing his 'free' fuel even after he had his process down was not leaving him in a 'happy place'
I think he kinda felt trapped having made the time and money investment in his set up for his eco ethics. His carbon footprint when gauged against his personal time being spent on a continuing basis seemed to cause more than a little inner conflict.
