Brazil is in a very different situation than most other places in the world. Brazil's equatorial position, it's abundant rain and it's very few miles of highway and the cars per acre of arable land, cars percapita make it an ideal place to use pure ethanol. Sugar cane, if grown under those perfect conditions, make it ideal for biofuel production.
You have to remember that except for nuclear, tidal and geothermal all other fuels come from the sun.: Oil and coal are sunshine from a million years ago Ethanol, Biodiesel, Hydro, and stover are sunshine from recent time.
There must be a reason why ancient Egyptians worshiped Ra, for without his influence our globe would be but a frozen ball.
The Sun has been on an upswing as of late, which explains why the ice caps on Mars have been melting. But we will go extinct as a species from this world and the Earth will still have millions of years of life that will evolve through cycles of ice ages and warm periods. It is just the rhythm of the universe, I guess.
