Scripture teaches us that God made the earth to inhabited. It also calls for responsible oversight of land and animals. But just like the Prius is actually more enviro-disastrous than the Hummer (see our blog
here), so we now learn that ethanol ain't the answer to our greenhouse gas blues.
An international group of researchers has concluded that ethanol and rapeseed (the most widely used biofuel in Europe), produce far more greenhouse gases than oil and petroleum. Check out the
London Times article on the study
here. Though one study scientific fact does not make, the most widely used biofuels continue to fall short of fossil fuels.
As our brilliant readers should know, many folks with a stake in the alternative fuels/environmental fight are more than willing to fudge the facts in order to pocket cash or prestige (see Al Gore). As honest scientists keep digging, look beyond the hysteria over supposed man-made global warming and the hype over the next panacea for greenhouse gas emissions and keep reducing your use.
