BioTown, USA

In 2005, the Indiana State Department of Agriculture began a program to make Reynolds an energy self-sufficient community, able to subsist almost entirely on locally produced alternative energy. Called "BioTown, USA", the pilot project involved converting local vehicles to run on ethanol and biodiesel fuels and converting animal waste into electricity and natural gas.cite web|url=http://www.thehj.com/main.asp?SectionID=9&SubSectionID=32&ArticleID=12008|author=Lietz, Abby|title=BioTown boom!|publisher=Herald Journal|date=2005-09-14|accessdate=2008-08-16]
