Re: [RC] OT - MSN article on biofuels with link to UN report - Truman Prevattsteelsidedown@xxxxxxx wrote:Short term, I'd have to agree ... but long term ... wouldn't that make farm land more valuable? Stop the urban sprawl?It all depends on how well biofuels are accepted and on the price of petro. It seems that when the oil shale is available from Canada it might be less expensive than biofuels and contain more energy per gram. As far as I can see biofuels for mass use was a cop-out so this administration didn't have to wrestle with a long term energy policy. As many have said - many that should know what they are talking about - we can't drill or grow our way out of the mess we are in.
