Biofuels are one answer to the energy situation we have on this planet. Petroleum is still the cheapest and most abundant source on energy we have. I do believe we need to use it more efficiently, but it provides the most bang for the buck. The leadership of the UK is also asking questions about this rush to an unproven and expensive source of energy.

ReplyDeleteI've done an analysis of biofuel production:

If we really want $25 a bushel corn and even more suffering and poverty among the world's poor, then by all means let's increase biofuel production.
