excessive fossil-fuel use, fix global economies, reduce energy requirements from neighbouring countries, and mitigate against possible climate change. New technology recently proven at Regensburg University in Bavaria, Germany can make a significant contribution. The new microbiological conversion of CO2 to CH4 process uses predominantly the metabolic energy provided by methanogens instead of the costly non-viable electrolytic pathway
unsuccessfully attempted over many years. 99,4% conversion has been achieved.

The technology is unknown to the authorities who have the capacity to implement it meaningfully. Details can be found on website http://www.co2recycled.com or http://www.wolfowitz.com .A method to manufacture very large operational plants in a few days and resolve the CO2 emissions problem quite soon depending on the degree of implementation has also been devised.

Instead of importing LNG from Russia, the US, etc. the EU can obtain the 30% shortfall in its requirements using this process instead of dumping its furnace emissions into the atmosphere. This needs to be brought to the attention of the authorities and powers who can implement it.
