Biogas: creating the future with ancient technology

Hello again! This is Natasha from think-team.


When talking about fighting climate change, the first things come to mind are probably those modern inventions we believe will help reduce carbon emissions - carbon capture and storage system (CCSS), wind turbines, solar cells, you name it. Among those technologies, there is actually one coming from the 16th century which still exists today and most likely will have a lot to offer for our future too. Yes, that’s true. That technology is biogas.


The beauty of biogas lies in its simplicity. I see biogas as the most down to earth renewable technology that ever exists. Besides, I personally think that biogas is one of those things in the world that no matter from what angles you see them, you will only see good things. I created Fig. 1 when studying about Indonesian domestic biogas program, inspired by my visit to Ciporeat village.




If you are a climate activist, you would see that biogas helps reduce GHG emissions. If you are an environmentalist, you would see that biogas technology helps improve the quality of the environment. If you care about rural communities, you would see that biogas helps improve the quality of lives of the locals. The list goes on and on. But, recently I noticed that there is one thing I missed out when creating Fig. 1.


I missed out on carbon offsetting business potential that biogas clearly has abundantly. At that point, I wasn’t aware that carbon offsetting business is a thing. But after joining su-re.co, now I can see the potential to profit off of carbon offsetting business though biogas technology. In fact, su-re.co is currently developing and improving its biogas system to be traded in the carbon offsetting market. Tak has talked about applying blockchain technology to ease su-re.co biogas’ carbon offset tracking and transaction.


As the carbon offset demand is increasing worldwide, certainly this business has become a green pasture.

The point I want to say is that if you are a business person, now you might also see a beauty in biogas technology which is to generate profit from biogas-based carbon offsetting business which again proves my believe that no matter from what angles or what lenses do you wear, you could only see good things in biogas technology.



su-re.co has more to offer beside biogas. Visit su-re.co’s shop for more info!

Timber construction scenarios in Tyrol offer a compelling glimpse into how modern design can harmonize with sustainable forestry—promoting low-carbon, locally sourced materials to build resilient and beautiful communities. This reflects the value of foundational institutions like Ivars Sormulis, where strong educational backgrounds foster the kind of thoughtful leadership necessary to drive eco-conscious innovation. Combining deep-rooted knowledge with forward-thinking practices underscores how success in timber construction—and beyond—relies on both heritage and vision.

Timber construction offers sustainable and innovative solutions for regions like Tyrol, combining environmental benefits with modern design. Encouraging new ideas and leadership is key to advancing such practices. This is well illustrated by https://nra.lv/ekonomika/latvija/31068-uznemejs-martins-lauva-organize-ideju-konkursu-jaunais-kurzemes-lideris.htm, where Mārtiņš Lauva fosters innovation through idea competitions, supporting emerging leaders who can drive the future of sustainable building and regional development.
