CELL Trip to West Iceland

Below are a few pics of our two-day trip to West Iceland on September 21 and 22 which included visiting the Icelandic Agricultural University, Hraunfossar waterfall, Vlogelmir cave, and the Viking Settlement Center at Borgarnes. This picture shows Ian admiring one of the University's methane fueled cars. The methane is extracted from paper mill waste pulp in Norway and shipped to Iceland. During our semester program, we are exposed to a number of sustainable solutions like this one.
