  Hmm let me think….it would have to be something clean, renewable and using the activity we (should) do often already anyway…
  
  Maybe energy from laughing? That would encourage us to take life less seriously, tell more jokes and watch more comedies 😉

  That’s a great question, it really made me think!
  What about burning cow poo!? It’s often a waste product (although sometimes used for fertilizer) and there’s plenty of it to go round!

  It would probably be generating electricity from ocean water since there is so much of it.

  I think it would be from movement – like being able to go for a run and charging your phone at the same time!
