And the way the Greenius sees it, it’s a nano-thin intellectual line between choosing to believe black people or brown people are inferior and not equal to you and yours and believing that 100+ years of burning fossil fuels is not the cause of global warming and that climate scientists are lying and part of a cabal perpetrating a vast left wing conspiracy. It’s as obvious as water is wet. .

Evapotranspiration (ET) refers to the sum total of water lost while the plant is growing, either from evaporation through the plant stem itself (a process called “transpiration”), or from water evaporated off of the plant’s leaves or the ground. Land conversion to biofuel production is an example of a potential large-scale land cover change. Growing such crops on marginal lands could avoid competition with food, indirect land use change effects, and local carbon debt.
