Biofuels from nonfood chain feedstock sources are viable alternative fuels

November 4, 2009

Biofuels do harm, aren't they? | pellets-wood.com

The biofuels and alternative energy project models that were originally based on feedstock materials from the food chain commodities have been shown to a failure, something many already knew.Not only did they add to the upward pressures on food chain commodities, especially corn and soyoil, they brought added deforestation pressures in several developing economies.Additional fertilizers and pressures on already low water supplies in some areas were additional exacerbations to the equation.The new generation of feedstock for biofuel production will be from nonfood chain sources and will add new benefits into the biofuel equation.

Fort Irwin to build a 500 megawat solar farm | solar.coolerplanet.com

We know that GE's CEO has lunch 2X a week with the Brass in Washington... We know that GE has the most to gain or loose should they not get the contract to participate in this two billion dollar project. GE Infrastructure, GE Wind, GE... the list goes on and I am confident that all of the right people are talking to the right people. We think that understanding energy management and creating a system for open architecture prior to building the project is a must.

Why Biofuels are Good for the Us, the Environment and the Economy

November 4, 2009

GLG Expert Contributor

Biofuels do harm, aren't they? | pellets-wood.com

Food vs fuel proponents argue biofuels replace food crops, therefore causing food shortages For the following reasons this is a short sighted argument. 1. Most crops used for biofuels production in the US aren't for human consumption, their alternative use is as animal feed2. A co-product of the ethanol production process is a feed ingredient that replaces much of the nutrient value derived from the corn 3. Biofuels reduce the demand (and price) of oil which encourages further world trade
