[QUOTE=hypno-toad;40391428]I don't think you read my post. The problem with biofuel isn't that the ethanol makes poor fuel (it doesn't really) the problem is the fuel needs to be made with sugar. Sugar that comes from plants. Plants that need to be grown by people using petroleum-fueled farming equipment on huge landmasses that need to be watered from the already depleted aquifers. This is marginally more useful because it's identical to diesel, but there's still the massive logistical hurdles that any glucose to fuel conversion process has to deal with.[/QUOTE] 1. as mentioned before me, doesn't add to the carbon cycle 2. oil reserves won't last forever. We can use the time left before that happens to work out the logistics.
