But that job looks like a ball and chain around the neck. Making cattails and other aquatic weeds into fuel is the only way to finance their control. I'm working with 2 groups in Africa who are just starting to harvest cattails for charcoal making. Charcoal is the fuel that the local market is ready for, but I'm hoping to move them up later to healthier fuels. The quantities available are staggering, and the problems they cause have the people staggering. Cattails are a large part of African desertification and many other problems (flooding, quelea, malaria, bilharzia...) too. Thanks for pioneering the path I need to lead some distant friends down.
