The UN Renounces Biofuels
I had to check to be sure that it was not yet April Fools Day. Surely our friends in the UK would not be so unkind as to mislead their unrepentant ex-colonists over here, would they? The March 23, 2014 Telegraph carried this article stating that “Biofuels do more harm than good, UN warns.” The United Nations said that?
Of course a lot of other people have been saying that for years. In 2007, near-riots took place in Mexico over the increase in corn meal prices triggered by corn for automobile biofuel alcohol. Even Al Gore fessed-up in 2010 that his idea for corn ethanol was a “bad idea” prompted by his presidential ambitions.
What about the U.S. armed forces now committed to run on green biofuels? What about the U.S. Air Force? What to tell the Navy?
What to tell the EPA which has mandated the use of nonexistent stocks of biofuels, and fines consumers for not using the nonexistent fuel?
The day of reckoning seems to have come for all these acolytes of the green goddess. The U.N. IPCC, the self-declared expert on all things climate, has finally seen the light of reason and perhaps the multitudes of the food-starved. The new mantra seems to be easier to swallow…”biofuels bad.”
