I was planning of staying out of this alternative fuel discussion and I will, I just want to correct this statement because its not true. They are already various ways of making ethanol without harming the food production and they are used already as well. Examples are ethanol out of farm-waste (for example the remains of corn, grain and sugercane after the 'food' part has been taken out) and from alges (is that the correct english word? I mean the green stuff in the water).
