Pigs & Corn
Surprise surprise, an oil substitute made from pig waste smells like crap. Also, when it floods in the mid-west, corn commodities get hit hard. Corn gets more expensive and thus, ethanol prices jump accordingly. Then plants struggle with production and investors get needy. Can you say future bailouts for bad biofuels? Should have gone with Kudzu, ya’ll.
Now an NYC refugee, Curtiss P. Martin serves as a contributing editor of all things clean and green at ScribeMedia. When he isn't out on the road or in the field researching and reporting on controversial science and tech topics, Curtiss can be found communing with the creative kids at the Elsewhere artist collaborative in Greensboro, NC.
Thanks for your comments on Kudzu, ethanol draft. This draft has generated over 10,000 views and people are still checking out the draft everyday.
If the kudzu ethanol project shows merit, and can be produced at good pricing, then this project will be followed by chemically green. I have an interview with Doug Mizell next Tuesday and will see if the kudzanol has merit. More information will be posted at a later date.
