"The government should ban all food leftovers from landfill by the end of the decade to boost technology which can turn it into energy, a study from thinktank CentreForum suggested on Tuesday.

"... The process could create enough biogas from green waste and purpose-grown crops to power more than 2.5m UK homes by 2020, the report said."

"... The independent report will be published this week at a conference held by the Anaerobic Digestion and Biogas Association (ADBA), which funded the study."
