Biofuel = Death

By: GARKO

Biofuel = Worldwide Hunger And Death
I had so many different titles for this article but none were sufficient to capture its importance
Of the earth's 6.66 billion residents, 4 billion live in poverty, and those at the bottom of that group are already very skinny and without sufficient food to be able to function normally. Many of these poorest people are to be sacrificed in the name of highly questionable alternative energy sources which don’t even help improve the environment. Just a total loss across the boards for everyone but a few politicians and a few corporations The estimates are 10 to 20 million dead in 2008 alone! This is urgent, folks, and all but invisible!
Most of these people will die due to weakend immune systems which are depleted by a lack of nutrition. That is the main, indirect way that a lack of sufficient food kills people, but many will die of direct, emaciating starvation as well.
The impact on the US directly is that the wheat supplies are hitting lowest ever points, lower than any time since 1948 because so many wheat farmers switched to growing corn for biofuel. And the pendulum does not swing back in this case. US farmers ARE planting more wheat this year but because of the demand for corn for food and energy this will result in dramatic increases in food prices across the globe next year.
Biofuels are a dead end technology that can only lead to more human misery, hunger, and environmental destruction no matter what biofuel crops we grow. Two years ago the price of corn was only $2 bushel, but expanding ethanol production has pushed corn prices up to over $6 a bushel today and since the main thing that we feed poultry and animals is corn… the prices of chicken, eggs, beef and dairy have all gone up as a consequence. Last year, America’s farms sold enough corn, soy and rapeseed for use as biofuel that could have fed 250 million people for an entire year with sufficient caloric intake for them to survive. According to the World Bank the price of staple foods has soared an astonishing and highly alarming 80% in the last three years since 2005 and 33 nations now face political instability as a result. In even some wealthier countries like Italy there have been food riots. In Haiti, some of the poor have resorted to eating cookies made of mud! The food riots in Haiti have looked more like revolution than just demand for food.
Biofuel is a bad idea that sounds like a good idea and there is no way to make it match up with the realities of the real world so it becomes something positive for either the environment or the economy. Many independent studies from agencies, universities, etc show that ethanol from cellulose (switchgrass, wood chips, crops waste, etc.) will never be cost effective. Affordable biodiesel fuel from algae is a pipe dream that has wasted research money since the 1970s. Making ethanol from corn takes so much natural gas, coal, and oil to produce that it is not energy efficient, and certainly not worth the disastrous environmental and human life destruction it causes.
Respected scientific studies have shown that biofuel production is torture for wildlife and the biosphere, and speeds global warming faster than using ordinary gasoline.
There is so much evidence that biofuel is a disastrous "solution" to the Earth and its inhabitants, that one wonders who promotes it still. Obviously, not anyone with humanity's best interests at heart.
Meanwhile the real solutions are occurring at the grassroots level. Water4Gas is one of the best.
WATER4GAS is providing information at a low price which consumers can use in their garage or wherever to create a small gizmo which infuses hydrogen into the gas/air mixture that their vehicle runs on.
The process makes smaller particles out of the particles that the system burns as fuel. So it gets to use considerably more of it.
By doing this you can minimumly expect to increase your MPG by thirty to fifty percent or even more. With W4G gasoline is made usable so you can increase your MPG.
It also helps reduce emissions significantly.
