I think biofuels are being pushed in the US mainly because they're nervous about their oil supply in the light of Dubya's disasterous foreign policy. I doubt the environment comes into it.

The last thing we need is deforestation to grow fuel when we aren't even growing enough food globally.

I wouldn't normally bring up this up, because I know we all want to save money running our cars, but personally I wouldn't touch biofuels with a barge pole. Not for financial reasons but rather for moral reasons.

The greenie left-wing push for biofuels, based on this global warming racket, is wrecking the environment and pushing millions of the world's poor to the brink of starvation. I'm no crusader but I personally wouldn't want to add to the demand for these fuels at present.

Here's a good link to read more:

I'm not preaching, just stating a personal view.
I agree, but if there was less tax on fuel which would make it more affordable, I would buy it ;)
