Harvard Study Warns Against Rolling Back Incentives for Biofuels
http://www.farmfutures.com/ME2/dirmod.asp?sid=CD26BEDECA4A4946A1283CC7786AEB5A&nm=News&type=news&mod=News&mid=9A02E3B96F2A415ABC72CB5F516B4C10&tier=3&nid=6FD1690250014BFC850522C4B38FF543
Finally! A more reasoned view! The Harvard report hits on the fact that we need to be working on biofuels, implementing them with the proper caution and care, and implementing policies that are diverse and tailored to the situation. The knee-jerk reactions that some policy making bodies have to media reports, public response, etc are not the type of policy actions that need taken to further our goals of energy independence.
