I honestly believe that Biofuels are the way to go, however the industry is not being handled properly. The whole idea of a "carbon neutral" fuel source is contingent upon having active crops that can absorb the carbon emissions of the biofuel vehicles, which is not being done. If we were to start with crops that have a short production period, such as soybeans, we can really get the biofuel movement heading forward. Using existing corn crops etc... for biofuel production misses the whole point of this industry and the benefits of using this as a primary fuel source.
