From your article:



"Though running cars on diesel fuel would still generate CO2 emissions, that CO2 could effectively be reabsorbed from the atmosphere by growing more biomass - essentially creating a balanced CO2 cycle. "


It sounds like they are talking about teraforming the earth and only allowing an amount of CO2 to be produced that could effectively be scrubbed out of the atmosphere by the biomass.  And where are they going to grow this additional biomass?


It sounds like pie in the sky to me saggyjones.  A lovely thought, but not practical in any way at all.


One of the most serious questions with biofuels saggyjones, is where do we clear enough land to grow the raw materials?  You are going to have to choose to either reduce food crops or clear forest land.  Which is more acceptable to you?
