Unfortunately in the rush to switch from fossil fuels to something else, food stuffs have become a target. The solution is simple: cellulose to alcohol. This way the people and animals have food and the waste (cornstalks) becomes fuel.
Better would be to switch our effluent streams into the ConAgra Four Stage Polymerizer - all that human waste, trash, used tires, plastic bottles, even soft coal, etcetra could be literally cooked into C18; a laboratory grade of sweet-light crude. They claim this can be done for $7US a barrel!
C18 can be 100% cracked into iso-octane, the base fraction of gasoline. Blended with cellulosic alcohols and presto! Useful fuel, less waste into the landfills AND the price of tortillas still won't come down! Know why? Supply and Demand; An ever increasing population in Latin America means more buyers. Which means prices will always rise!
The Chinese have a solution..and are looking to stabilize their population before it reaches 2 billion, I wonder if Latin America would be willing to do the same?
Electric cars of the near future look to be an exciting ...
