#1 Hard to believe this much sense could come from these wackos.

Not sense. Remember, the green agenda is more about forcing the unwashed masses to live like 16th century serfs of the plantations of their elect, green masters. The biofuels issue was only a club to beat up "big oil" with. It was never intended to be implemented.

reflects a growing concern by the general public in the last six months that agrofuels are causing significantly more harm than good

See Den Beste for the ultimate takedown of the alternative energy scam. He expresses it better than I ever could. With the relevant equations, yet!

As many have noted before, the whole green movement is simply a holdout for the marxist survivors of the cold war. Think of it as one of those bypassed japaneese island fortresses. These loosers know the war is over, and their side lost. But if they admit it, it will destroy them psychologicaly and politicaly.

Then they will have to get real jobs, and working at Qizno's, Starbux, etc. leaves much to be desired. Heh.

#2 I wasn't overly impressed with DenBeste's takedown of alternate fuels as it relates to biofuels. But it does seem that the greens are oppossed to nuclear and windfarms and now biofuels. It seems that if a solution is 100% perfect it's the devil.

#3 Flipping channels I watch a few seconds of an Animal Channel show. One dippy lady came on with a bat in her hand. I had the sound turned off but her title was flashed on the screen:
Director of Bat Protection

At that point I turned on the sound.. Seemed that her job with (I assume) some NGO was to save individual bats and work for saving their genome too.

I mean, like..... How many thousands $ for a disabled bat that lives a year or 2?

Talk about misguided and strange jobs with no real world value.....

This is the sort of stuff people used to do on their own and shut up about! Not have a paid job with a fancy title like Bat Savior!

#5 Actually, biofuels was the Greenies solution, cos it sounds, well soooo Green, but energy like pretty much all human problems is a scale problem (which DenBester explains very well). What sort of works for a few hippies in the woods, doesn't work for 7 bilion, and the trying causes massive ecological and other problems.

The Greens are realizing they have created a massive real problem in trying to solve a small and probably imaginary problem.

Every day solar cycle is delayed makes the next colder (so many think).

A factoid for you. A decade around 1600 when the Little Ice Age started, temperatures fell about 100 times faster than they have risen in the twentieth century.

#6 That should have read,

Every day the next solar cycle is delayed makes the next few years colder (so many think).
