The potential for production of ethanol in Latin America and the Caribbean is high, and much of it could be delivered to US coastal regions at a lower cost than shipping corn-based ethanol from the US Midwest. Therefore, we do not recommend renewing blenders’ credits when they expire at the end of 2009.

Oil, the second greatest contributor to atmospheric carbon dioxide, is already substantially depleted, and it is impractical to capture carbon dioxide emitted by vehicles. You see, you start out with a little bit of oil. Yes, it is a great challenge, but one with enormous side benefits. Then you fry some garlic.
