#3 Circle of Life, man!

scientists have developed a technique for turning the waste material into novel protein sources -- for animals, as well as humans -- and biofuels.

Food and biofuels. Now *this* is a vision for the future - a civilization powered entirely on beer.

#5 How is this new? Waste grain has been feed to livestock for thousands of years.

Scientists turn brewing waste into fresh yeast to make more beer.

Congratulations... you discovered Barm. The ancient people up until prohibition last century used it to make more beer and leaven bread. That is what they used instead of the packet yeast we have today. Bread used to have a hops taste because of that and even in the early 20th century there were recipes that talked about adding that flavor back in since they didn't have barm.

#11 Who is not drinking their share?

Me. I can’t abide the stuff, even before having the alcohol tolerance of a small guppy. But that just means more for the rest of you, so I’m sure it won’t go to waste.
