Biofuel Production Causes Food Shortages - News Report (May 08)
Biofuels are not all that they are cracked up to be. In fact, some estimate that more energy goes into their production than is released when they are burned. But there is another more troubling aspect: biofuels use up valuable land that could otherwise be used for growing food. In fact, in many places in the world, growing biofuel crops is becoming more lucrative than growing food crops, with the result of food shortages and therefore rising food prices around the world. Already, we have seen riots taking place in developing countries at the rising cost of basic foods. This situation will continue to deteriorate so long as we, our media and our governments see biofuels as the answer to oil-dependance.
