There have been people who shot themselves in the foot and wasn't deadly, but wouldn't advise it. Freedom is choosing what you want. If you want science and facts to decide your life, it would be different than what you have now. But you want to make your choices backed by science and facts I would hope those facts are accurate Sustainable is often used term that can be manipulated. A lot of hard choices would be need to be made and feelings would be hurt
Sustainable is currently the most over used and abused word in the English language.
Nothing is sustainable if it’s not economically sustainable, period. Ethanol from corn is economically sustainable, environmentally sustainable and sustainable in conjunction with our food production. Distillers grains made it economical and practical to feed low value high tonnage corn stalks to cattle. Corn stalks still haven’t been made into financially sustainable ethanol no matter how many millions we dump in that hole.
The entire fuel vs food argument is idiotic when there’s 27 million acres in CRP that the US taxpayer is paying to remove from production.
If you’re worried about meat and ethanol being bad for the planet and the economy, you can always eat beans and rice like most poor people in the world do. Better yet, volunteer to trade places with someone from somewhere like Haiti. |
