Comments on: Corn Ethanol - Dead On Arrival? http://willtaft.com/contemporary-issues/corn-ethanol-dead-on-arrival/ For People and Planet Earth Sun, 20 Jul 2008 18:32:09 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.3.3 By: Biofuel blog http://willtaft.com/contemporary-issues/corn-ethanol-dead-on-arrival/#comment-10419 Biofuel blog Fri, 27 Jun 2008 04:54:18 +0000 http://willtaft.com/contemporary-issues/corn-ethanol-dead-on-arrival/#comment-10419 In my opinion, corn ethanol has always been a dumb idea. Algae based biofuels are the highest yielding "crop" (if you can call algae a crop) solution out there right now. I cover many related biofuel issues on my blog listed below and at my forum, www.biofueldebate.com where I hope to see you visit. Great blog Will, keep up the informative content!

Ours comes from filtered veggie oil from restaurants currently, it is filtered/cleaned and made then in our plant. metta sky Namaste’ Will, excellent post and article!!!! thanks so much, as someone who is making their own bio-fuel up here at our ranch,I am always on the alert as to other sources to make this with.

I read recently about bio-fuel made from algae grown in man-made ponds. That would be better also. It seems like every day now I see and article on how bad corn ethanol is for the environment, the economy, and the food supply. The real problem is that we did nothing after the last energy "crisis" years ago. Now that it finally seems urgent to policy makers, we are stuck waiting for the technology.

I remember reading your post a while back on this topic, very informative, I read some of your links and one phrase that sums it up nicely.
