If it uses petroleum-based fuel, the United States is accused of advancing global warming.

If it uses corn-based ethanol, it is accused of causing people to starve. (Also, environmentalists argue that increasing use of farmland decreases biodiversity).

What a lose-lose situation.

He said George W Bush's support for the use of food crops in fuel production would cause 3bn deaths from hunger.

Actually, Marxism causes death from hunger. Case in point: Zimbabwe, former breadbasket and current basket case of Southern Africa.
