I was really bored out of town this week so I watched TV. The most interesting thing I could find was a Rep from Maryland was speaking about Alternative fuels on C-Span. He made an interesting argument for alternatives. I was sorely disappointed that he did not mention or even list Biodiesel as an alternative fuel. There were 25 Million gallons of Biodiesel in US commercial production not counting private in 2004. I am currently reading Greg Pahls book "_BIODIESEL - growing a new energy economy"_ which contains some very forward looking information. The bottom line here is a question - Why is this source so ignored when it produces over 3 gallons for every one expended?
What do you folks see as the top 10 replacement fuels and in what order. Currently hydrogen is right next to coal on my list as we must burn so much coal to use this "clean fuel" Ok one last question about wind farms. I told someone that wind farms have the _potential_ of changing the weather if there is enough energy extracted. I was laughed at and got that "look" _Now I did say potentia_l. The laws of thermodynamics say so. So can any one share some more insight to this potential possibility?? _______________________________________________ Biofuel mailing list Biofuel@sustainablelists.org http://sustainablelists.org/mailman/listinfo/biofuel_sustainablelists.org Biofuel at Journey to Forever: http://journeytoforever.org/biofuel.html Search the combined Biofuel and Biofuels-biz list archives (50,000 messages): http://www.mail-archive.com/biofuel@sustainablelists.org/
