..when you idiots listen to Al Gore paranoia and all his hippie friends?

"Without the increase in biofuels, global wheat and maize stocks would not have declined appreciably and price increases due to other factors would have been moderate," the report said.

It added that the drive for biofuels has distorted food markets by diverting grain away from food for fuel, encouraging farmers to set aside land for its production, and sparked financial speculation on grains."

And the reason more biofuel is being grown is because the price of Oil is rising, we're all fucked either way.

No. This started WAY before the price of oil shot up.

How is this so terrible?

If you can prove global warming doesn't exist, then perhaps.

taking food away from peoples mouths and forcing people to suffer and die is not terrible?

Oh, please. If we distributed food to prevent starvation it wouldn't exist. A rise in prices just means some pork-pie rich kid won't get an extra hotdog.

He doesn't understand.
It's less about caring than it is about understanding and mudslinging.

It's true. People were starving in Africa before the bio-fuels push, but you didn't care because it wasn't useful for you to care.

Damn straight. Of course, it's easy to blame Al Gore for just about anything (just like blaming Muslims).

Whatever the case, producing ethanol from sugar cane is better than producing it from corn. We should take the route that Brazil has.

Hey, I agree as well. I don't like it when people toss blame around just because they're easy targets.

If you think TONS of people, especially college and high school kids, were not influenced by his movie, then I think you are terribly mistaken.

Plenty? Less than the UN suggested 0.7%, and there were still plenty of Starvin' Marvins.

Of course they were influenced. Facts should be very influential in this discussion, and that movie was highly factual. Of course, Gore has an agenda just like your oil financed "scientist" buddies on the other side of the global warming debate.

There are facts to support either side, but cross-referencing should be the focus in researching this topic, not trusting any one source as gospel.

Oh pleez my ass. I don't think you get it. Farmers can't raise poultry and cattle if the grain they fed them is being used for bio fuels and the hunt for manbearpig. That means your basic grains, meats and vegetables will raise in price as well as the cost of the fuel neded to put in trucks gas tanks to DISTRIBUTE it. Besides, food is distributed already to grocery stores.

Very true. They also seem to admonish the working class, telling us we have to go green and conserve, yet I do not hear a fucking word out of gore's mouth when celebs like tiger woods and celine neon have their water bills made public, and they use more water themselves then most small cities ffs.

Which results in higher food costs.

you have the right to say what you want about the movie, if you thought it was bullshit, put it in the essay

As far as my understanding goes, the only that the movie F'ed up on was one of the charts they presented didn't show the entire timeline or something. But can you give more examples of how the movie was wrong?
