  "The power of manure - experience biomass sensorially" - use of biomass and resource chains
The Department of Agricultural Sciences at the University of Hohenheim has developed a project for schools under the theme "Electricity from Cow pats. Getting touchy-feely about biomass". It explained the resources chains for three materials: vegetable oils, biogas and wood. The students also learnt about the opportunities benefits and risks of scientific and technical developments while collecting information for a group presentation.
