 All blogs containing the word: use of corn for ethanol (12 results) Aug. 11, 2008Get a Grip - Part TwoNow for the second part of this little rant. As if the poor reporting about ethanol by NPR was not enough to keep me lit up all day another report about our friends at Monsanto comes out as well.
Monsanto is in the courts again. This time they are after the dairy industry..» Read blog Aug. 05, 2008Get a Grip - Part OneIn the past I have been chided for some of my blogs being “divisive” or “too political”. Well hold on to your hats folks because today I am just flat
pissed off!!!!
I will start with an NPR report I heard earlier this week. The report referenced the state of Texas requesting a waiver from the federal government on the requirement to use ethanol in their fuel..» Read blog Jul. 27, 2008Sarah Steelman's Misleading AdsMore on: ethanol, Sarah Steelman, Missouri, low gas prices I used to really respect Sarah Steelman.
I thought her stand against the insurance company hornswoggle known as "tort reform" was a tremendous, courageous stand.
But unfortunately, her latest (and silliest) ad in her grab to be Missouri's next governor has unmasked her as another politician willing to trade sides for no reason at all, other than supporting the sentiment of the moment..» Read blog May. 26, 2008Corn-fusedMore on: corn, use of corn for ethanol, causes of rise in food prices For the past few weeks news sources have talked about the dangerous influence alternative fuels have on our cost of food.
"The recent rise in corn prices -- almost 70 percent in the past six months --caused by the increased demand for ethanol biofuel has come much sooner than many agriculture economists had expected..» Read blog May. 22, 2008DisfunctionalMore on: Big Oil, biodiesel, The Hold Steady It will be interesting to see how history views this period of rising energy prices during an era of near-stagnant economic growth.
As I see it, such an event could show people not yet touched by the environmental debate of the huge pull that energy has over our lives, and how we have backed ourselves into the proverbial corner with Big Oil..» Read blog May. 18, 2008AcresOver the past year there have been some fascinating conversations about the promise of ethanol. Within that same twelve-month period we have seen many organizations start crying out against the production of ethanol from corn.
Corn-based ethanol in the US has been labeled as a crime against humanity by some..» Read blog May. 06, 2008Take ActionMore on: Renewable Fuel Standard, biodiesel, ethanol As you have read in recent days, we don't think much of ethanol and biodiesel being blamed for the world food crisis. Unfortunately, lots of Members of Congress, with short attention spans and long needs for attention, are now asking for the Renewable Fuel Standard to be curbed..» Read blog Apr. 28, 2008Boneheads on paradeJean Ziegler of the United Nation’s Right to Food Program has claimed that biofuels are a crime against humanity. Ziegler has called for a global five year moratorium on the production of biofuels to avert what he is calling a growing "catastrophe" for the poor..» Read blog Apr. 27, 2008Biodiesel is Not The ProblemMore on: biodiesel, food crisis, ethanol Biodiesel is NOT adding to any food crisis.
Let me repeat that: Biodiesel is NOT adding to any food crisis.
Biodiesel is very different from ethanol, yet both are often lumped together as "biofuels". Their impact is drastically different..» Read blog Dec. 26, 2007Food vs. FuelLets start with the obvious: There are people starving all
over the world. They are not starving because the earth cannot produce
enough food to feed everyone, at least not yet. They are not starving because corn is being used to make ethanol
or soy oil going into biodiesel..» Read blog Nov. 12, 2007Get It StraightThe word energy has been thrown bandied about so extensively over the last several years, it’s hard even to understand what people are really talking about.
When we discuss energy and the dependence of the United States on foreign countries for energy we are, almost exclusively, discussing oil..» Read blog |   |
