ethanol from sugar cane
#15
If I understand the logic correctly, the CO2 advantage of using biodiesel and ethanol is that you are not adding new CO2 to the environment. The fuels are producing CO2 that was just recently taken out of the atmosphere by the plants used to produce the fuel. That is a good theory and should produce no net gain in CO2. Fossil fuels are releasing CO2 that was taken up long ago. The only flaw in the theory is when fossil fuels are used to produce the fertilizers used in the agriculture.
