How corn is quickly becoming the new crude

Scores of ethanol plants are under construction and as a result, Mr. Klein predicts that the United States will produce 52 billion litres of the fuel in 2008. When all the plants are running, the United States could produce twice as much corn for ethanol as Canada's total crop production -- wheat, barley, canola? everything.

This has huge implications for global food supplies. The amount of corn it takes to produce 75 litres of ethanol-- roughly a tank of fuel-- is enough corn to feed one person on a 2,000-calorie-a-day diet for a year, Mr. Klein said.
