Trade in your charcoal barbaque for a cleaner burning alternative–grill with ethanol using FlameDisk®. Sologear, a Wisconsin-based company, developed FlameDisk® technology to create a new, more ecofriendly heat source for existing grills. The grilling technology uses solidified ethanol, it lights quickly and is ready to cook right away.
Sologear describes FlameDisk® as ”much more eco-friendly than charcoal and lighter fluid because it features renewable ethanol. Ethanol is extremely clean burning and generates 90% fewer pollutants than charcoal. The FlameDisk®’s aluminum casing is also recyclable.”

Disposable aluminum liner? There is energy consumed to make it and air pollution from the manufacture and solid waste. Maybe you could recycle it but you’d have to clean it first (no recyclers want greasy aluminum) so there is water, soap and energy to do that. The taste of cooking with charcoal is better, it is made from renewable wood by-products and you can compost the bag. Sounds like a solution in search of a problem.
