Food and Fuel: Brazil Breaks New Records

Talk about digging up some facts - the cane industry in Brazil is expanding in terms of production - but not at the expense of the rain forest. This country has found a way to do what we're still kicking around as an idea..."making ourselves less dependent on foreign oil". If our inept politicians will start working on this [cane based ethanol] who knows - maybe we can catch up to Brazil in 10 years or so...afterall they have been promoting and building infrastructure for
ethanol for 30 years...

ps. just look at the decrease in total energy [and water] required t make ethanol from cane vs corn...the next big move will be to sorgum
using even less water...
