[QUOTE="Oldvatr, post: 2205130, member: 196898"] How do you stop the populace drinking their cars dry? Actually, Brazil is leading the way with ethanol producing crops as a government initiative, but the Amazon rainforest is suffering as a consequence. Officially according to environmentalists it is due to cow pasture and soya for feeding cows on but that is bunkum in Brazil. As said, cows die from eating soya, and most of the logging slash and burn is for biomass. Also for palm oil which is so essential in cosmetics. These two never get mentioned now do they? If you look at the proposals for the UK announced this year, a lot of the land currently used for livestock is to be reassigned to biomass. not food. This means trees shrubs and things that burn nicely in powerstations, I see Drax has been converted to biomass and now produces some 10% of what it did when it was coal fired. Thats progress. Produces the same amount of CO2 though but less sulphur. [/QUOTE]
