Handy biodiesel ammo
I'm feeling a little better since reading the handy fact-sheet that the folks at the National Biodiesel Board have just put out, debunking the various distorted information that has been circulating about biodiesel recently. I still think we need to drive our cars less, no matter what fuels them, and I still realize that we can't possibly produce enough domestic biodiesel to replace our current petroleum use. And the NBB fact-sheet sidesteps the fact that mono-cropping of any crop, soy or otherwise, tends to be hugely problematic from an environmental and social standpoint. Still, it's not all bad. There's no perfect single solution, but I'm comfortable promoting biodiesel as one small part of a general move in a more positive direction!
