Why is farming for corn to create ethanol taking off so fast when it takes more energy to make than it gives off when used?


Are you counting the sun? How are you quantifying "energy". I've often wondered about that myself. I saw a piece on some fuel conservation tv show about this group that has figured out how to process old plastic into a burnable 'diesel' fuel...but it took something like three specialty (and rather large by comparison) incineration processes to produce something like 3 liters of the juice. Had to be 100 times the energy required to make it.

wait...how in the hell did we get here again? Can I apologize again?


I'm sorry we're talking about this crap again.
