Water shortages and rising fuel prices are directly related to Ethanol being shoved down our gas tanks.
The lunacy of using food and water to replace oil must come to an end.
Motto, “Yes I Can”. Not, the “Yes We Can”.
Yes I Can. Yes I Can. Yes I Can. Yes I Can!
They will loose the farmer vote. and big ethanol puts lots of money in the coffers of both parties.
It needs to be done, but it never will be.
Only to point this out....this is in a highly dry climate (L A, California) and they had to use a fair amount of city water to accomplish the 6,000 lbs. This would not be the best place to accomplish a goal like this.
We invested in a RO/DI system for our drinking water (I also use it in my aquarium).
Removes %99.99 of the nastiness in tap water. When I change the filters I just stop and wonder how can the allow that much crap to flow through the pipes?
Looks like one of those scam sites, like”get rich by working at home”. Are they trying to sell something?
LOL—what are they growing? Gravel?
A shame to see what started out as a mildly interesting article turn into liquid diarrhea so quickly. All mentally normal people should disregard this article. Others will need serious drugs to get back to reality.
Sounds like Gary North during the y2k hayday.
They are in LA County.
You shouldn't expect them to be normal.
Yes, they are a bunch of hippies trying to sell their “story” and a bunch of t-shirts.

“Are they trying to sell something?”
Maybe your survival.
My food bill has increased by about $40.00 a week, and I shop at a discount type of grocery store.
Yes, growing your own food always sounds good. However, not everyone lives in sunny California and has trillion dollar Federal water projects to provide their water.
Unfortunately, my backyard is the size of a postage stamp and I have really bad dirt, I forget what its called, its really hard and dry.
Looks like commerce. It is a threat to the Federal Farm support programs, which puts farm banks at risk, so it should be mandated illegal
/lefty think off
No problem for me. I live in The Rainiest City In The US
LOL. I can't stop things from growing.
