Without the farm subsidies ethanol would be very expensive.


Right, let's do...nothing.

Doing nothing is better than doing the wrong thing. Ethanol still has

Ethanol is a ruse. We should be investing in switchgrass or algae

Why not CNG, it is cheap, clean and we have plenty of it?


Fracking... that's not a great solution. There are all kinds of
environmental problems.

There was a great article in The Atlantic about coal.
