ok, i just had to put this down.. just now, i was watching CNA and they showed about this UN guy who visited Brazil to see their Methanol Plant that basically uses methanol fuel to generate power. ok its all great and all cos its considered a renewable environmentally friendly source of energy for all of us.. compared to fossil fuels and such..
but sad to say, the source of the methanol is from sugar rich plants, such as sugar cane and they have to grow a pretty large amount of these plants to convert it to methanol for usage.. ok now, with this in mind, just imagine, how much food can actually be grown and used for FOOD.. now just imagine those people in africa who are like having food shortages and stuff..
isnt it ironic? well i seem to think so.. its like a crime against humanity itself.. growing tonnes and tonnes of food for fuel and yet, we ourself cant feed those needy with food..
smoke on the water.
