It's the work of professor Henry Daniell (http://gizmodo.com/tag/henrydaniell/) at the University of Central Florida (http://gizmodo.com/tag/universityofcentralflorida/), who can also turn newspaper into fuel fit for running a car with—using more than 10 enzymes from plants to break the rubbish into sugar that is then fermented into the ethanol fuel, producing less greenhouse gas emissions than electricity or gasoline. Plus, it decreases the pressure put on landfills—and might help stave off the "iPad effect" and keep newspapers in print for a while longer. Zing!
