There was a discussion in CBC radio where one of the anti ethanol told that the entire landmbutt of USA has to be cultivated with corn to get that much fuel. Here is what I get googling.
" Ethanol Fuel from Corn Faulted as 'Unsustainable Subsidized Food Burning' David Pimental, a leading Cornell University agricultural expert, has calculated that powering the average U.S. automobile for one year on ethanol (blended with gasoline) derived from corn would require 11 acres of farmland, the same space needed to grow a year's supply of food for seven people. Adding up the energy costs of corn production and its conversion into ethanol, 131,000 BTUs are needed to make one gallon of ethanol. One gallon of ethanol has an energy value of only 77,000 BTUS. Thus, 70 percent more energy is required to produce ethanol than the energy that actually is in it. Every time you make one gallon of ethanol, there is a net energy loss of 54,000 BTUs."
See I told you that you and other whites are just mediocre. You guys just shoot off whatever comes in your mind and that too in every topic under the sun. Why don't you leave Corn-Ethanol to experts. I am no expert but I am far more informed than you and other whites. Most of you guys don't even read newspapers. Drinking, f***ing and watching sports is your idea of spending time.
Consider yourself insulted.
