another lie pitched by the Greens

Interesting comment on the BBR

"Mr. Brownlow, who has a Ph.D. in geochemistry, says it takes 407 million gallons to irrigate 640 acres and grow about $200,000 worth of corn on the arid land. The same amount of water, he says, could be used to frack enough wells to generate $2.5 billion worth of oil."

So, we basically are using 10,000 times more water to produce ethanol, versus producing the same amount of gasoline from fracking, and the greens are complaining that fracking wastes precious water. This is beyond insane.
