Corn Ethanol - Dead On Arrival?

  As you may have noticed, I installed the CommentLuv plugin recently.  This popular WordPress plugin displays your latest post in the body of your comment.  The plugin and indeed the rest of this site are dofollow, so enjoy the links!

As for the corn ethanol story, check out the links listed at the end of this post.  It is a bit frustrating that it is only now getting picked up by the "big" press. Myself and many others have written over and over, and long ago about the problems with corn-based biofuels.  Please read one of my articles on one problem caused by the increased production of corn for biofuel here:  Ethanol Kills Thousands of Crabs, Fish, and Shrimp.

 

Other articles from the press over the past few days:

U.S. eyes shift away from corn ethanol 
 
Food scientists say stop biofuels to fight world hunger
 
Food Crisis Largely Due to Biofuel Production
 
And, of course defending the gravy train: Ethanol is not to blame for higher food prices
