Hi elmat,do you have concerns about "arable land" for the production of ethanol or is this more foolishness?

"""...As to ethanol, how far can we run with that?It comes down to arable land and the use of land that the article suggests...there is a limited supply..and we are paving over it , eroding it and abusing it at an alarming rate..plus the ongoing stress of feeding ourselves. Jay put up this web site here..

cia.gov

have a look at the arable land percentages for countries of the world.. then have a look at the updated version in 5 or 10 years time...i can assure you it won't be increasing.

Getting ourselves as efficient as possible in everything we do first, and then solar wind and wave power along with the recapture of energy in the every day things we use ...dynamic braking of cars,locomotives,elevators,forklifts conveyors....falling sewer water and rain water from buildings and insulating everything to R 100..America is in position to lead the way as Bush suggested last night..end of rant<gg>""
