"[T]he authors make a fundamental error if they do not even estimate iLUC because they assume incorrectly that they can ignore the carbon emissions from the combustion of the ethanol itself," Searchinger said in an email. "That is very real carbon, and there is no justification for ignoring it."What is also not mentioned in many media accounts is that MSU has a joint project with the University of Wisconsin called the Great Lakes Bioenergy Research Center, created with a $125 million grant from the U.S. Department of Energy.
Hey, if we conduct a real scientific study we cant get the results the DOE wants.
If we conduct a real study it will show that Ethanol is a boondoggle for ADM.
If we conduct a real study we wont get any more grant money.
So shut up.

The only thing that is considered with any leftist policy is how it makes the supporters of that policy feel about themselves.

Ethanol is a sop to farmers and a tax on non-farmers. In a world where, daily and in large numbers, babies starve using food, even animal food, for fuel seems hard to justify.

Ethanol is not only bad for the environment it’s terrible for cars. It reeks havoc on everything in the fuel system and the engine. Especially bad for classic cars.
