If the conclusions of this study are generalizable it may be that we on the mission of providing inexpensive home-scale-urban-biogas solutions for developing countries and cold climates can find our psychrophiles without having to travel to extreme environments or core lake ice. It also could answer the German's concern about bringing "foreign bacteria" from Alaska to other regions and confirms Katey's suspicion that birds have been bringing the psychrophiles around the world for millenia.
