Question:
I know it seems like a real good idea but then I am begining to think it may not be. In the part of the world where I live companies are buying or renting huge tracts of land and clearing them of every thing to grow oil nuts and plants for making bio fuel. Much of this land used to grow food to feed people and a lot was forest that should be left there.

Has anyone given driving license test in Aurora IL or atleast in IL?
I have my own apprehensions about this subject. I read an article in a newspaper, I think it was The Wall Street Journal, that made me wonder. I have since checked a few Internet sites and they seem to agree with the paper. According to the article, in order to supply the needs of the United States at 100% it would require 150% of the land area of the US be planted in corn. If you use that ratio and extrapolate or interpolate as necessary you will soon see that even supplying as little as a few percent would require a tremendous farming effort. !0% of our needs would require 15% of our land. 15% of the land area of the US is lot of acres. So if that article is even approaching an accurate figure I can't see any possibility of total success.
I personally think it is going to require technologies from several disciplines be applied to this problem. Wind and tidal action can produce electricity, hydrogen can fuel vehicles, solar can help with heating as well as electricity, there is geothermal, nuclear, methane from cow patties, perhaps cold fusion in the future and of course bio fuels. But, even with that list we must add "and so forth" because there are certainly things left to be discovered.
What cities have the BEST public transportation system?
It just seems to me that a "one size fits all" attitude is bound to fail.
In short, I think you have a very valid point. It illustrates a situation that every resident of planet Earth should be concerned about.
Do you need a residents sticker to park in savin hill MA?
I fully agree with you. I am not a supporter of bio-fuel. What happens in area's with drought? What happens when there is crop infestation or a storm of some kind wipes out the crop? then the cost will skyrocket and we will have to return to oil. And of course as you mention they will stop feeding the people so they can make fuel and tear down the forests for the same reason.I would like to see them work more with the hydrogen fuel system or continue to work on solar power. Although I imagine the big boys will squelch any idea of solar power..what? something for free? Well, we can't have that now can we? I'm just waiting for the day when they can figure out how to charge us for breathing.
