Today we focused on renewable energy. The landscape is dotted with windmills, and we got to see one up close. We then toured a biogas facility, which turns agricultural waste into warmth, electricity and fertilizer. We finished up with a tourof a dam and a water treatment facility. It was facinating to see how our hosts managed their sustainable natural resources.








That evening we were treated to a very tasty cookout at the Piepenbrock's garden. The chef is Hr. Dr. Freitag, and the food and company were both wonderful!
