Biofuels are prime cause of food crisis, says leaked report
- Read my lips: To say that biofuels cause food prices to increase is either stupid, misleading or both. First-generation biofuels cause food prices to increase, because first-generation biofuels are made from food plants. Duh. Some companies thought it was opportune to make a quick buck selling first-generation biofuels without regard for impacts on the global food market, and there you have it.
- You’re parroting back at me that hogwash about second-generation biofuels not being marketable yet? Make biodiesel from non-food crops. You can do this in mass quantities or in your backyard. Voila! Second-generation biofuel.
