I like this kind of thing for two reasons:
It shows people not looking for one single perfect solution that solves all problems, but instead choosing a route that works for their particular situation. Like I preach it, the answers lie in a patchwork of solutions.

Secondly, they are saving/making money from it, not being financially hurt as many would mistakenly assume.

I thought the same thing. especially this scene

Master: Me order! Me Master! Me run Bartertown!
Max: Sure, that's why you live in shit!
Master: Not shit! Energy!
Max: Call it what you like. It still smells like shit to me!

Aunty Entity: It's where Bartertown gets its energy.

Mad Max: Oil? Natural gas?

Entity: Pigs.

Mad Max: Pigs... like those?

Entity: That's right.

Mad Max: Bullshit!

Entity: No, pigshit.

Hhmmm we live to poo and poo can make energy that helps us live. Although it won't be a single source of energy it does put all the crap on the planet to good use aside from fertilizer.

Just to be safe, they should pass a law before it becomes a problem in the future: No writer (under pain of death) shall write an article about poo sourced energy entitled "The Sweet Smell of Success" or any other such pun.
