17. that went over your head.. it is immoral, it is not the efficient way to produce fuel, starvation is...
epidemic in africa and elsewhere.. 20 to 24% of children in the usa are malnourshed... it is raising the cost of all food when food producing land is taken off food production to grow corn..

the price here in nc of eggs has increased 50% already

ag hemp will produce fuel and fiber, plywood products, resigns, plastics, and seed oil and meal is a complete food also.. hemp grown on 20% of land logged annually will provide all the fiber the trees cut would.

hemp can be grown on marginal land, the roots are inoculated with fertilizer producing bacteria, corn is fuel/fertilizer intensive produce.. it isn't efficient as a fuel

climate changes Will eliminate corn as an alternative later anyway
