Scott Pruitt's favorite piece of Disney magic is Florida park's anaerobic digester
By Cody Boteler, Waste Dive.
Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Scott Pruitt visited Disney World early this week to highlight the park's commitment to sustainability, as reported by The Wall Street Journal.
The Disney anaerobic digester, built and operated by Harvest Power, can process 120,000 tons of food waste annually. Pruitt spent time touring a greenhouse facility and a restaurant kitchen in the Magic Kingdom to observe Disney's food sustainability practices.
An executive from Harvest Power told Pruitt that the company was "eager" to build more facilities, but said the $30 million price tag can be "prohibitive" for companies and municipalities.
