Taken from Patrick Dixon @ You Tube Biofuels scandal and food price rises: Woerld Bank report this week in depth study. Findings: 15% food price rise relates to energy costs / fertiliser price rises. 75% is linked to demand from biofuel industry. "Rapid growth in incomes in emerging economies has not led to large increases in global grain consumption and was not a major factor responsible for large price increases." Biofuels industry can expect major changes in government policy, regulations and taxation / subsidies. While we can not stop the rise of the fuel (petroleum, diesel, gases, biofuel, ethanol etc etc), why should we sacrifice the needs of other for food? Ask yourself......discuss it.... |
