World needs alternatives to biofuels from food crops

Share |

Time Mag coverTime Magazine takes on ethanol in this week’s cover story: The Clean Energy Scam. The article opens with a bird’s eye view over the Amazon rain forest as ranchers and farmers are doubling deforestation this year because biofuels have jacked up global crop prices. But, the Amazon is a storehouse for carbon and deforestation only accelerates global warming. Experts are calling it the ‘savannization’ of the Amazon. It’s sad, but in this environment–no pun intended–the case for biofuels from an arid desert crop, guayule, is only made more compelling and urgent. Check out this story here:

    Unquestionably believe that which you said. Your favorite reason seemed to be on the net the easiest thing to be aware of. I say to you, I certainly get annoyed while people think about worries that they plainly do not know about. You managed to hit the nail upon the top and also defined out the whole thing without having side-effects , people can take a signal. Will probably be back to get more. Thanks
