Martina -
I have to say that this is probably one of the most unusual questions that we’ve ever gotten, but here’s what I can tell you...
Throughout history, cow manure has been used for energy in a wide variety of contexts. One common way of using it is as a fertilizer to provide nutrients for plants to grow. Another is to burn it. Like wood, dried cow manure burns very well. The heat from the fire can then be used to cook things or even heat up steam for a steam engine. And with the power from a steam engine, you could run just about anything, up to and including a rollercoaster - just make sure to watch out for the smell!
