The above was posted from a Greens Media release I've not read through everything in the site yet (and possibly won't due to lack of time today), but I did click on one of the submissions, which at first glance did disgust me a little. Has anyone heard of these guys? Maybe Tony from West Oz - has Warfa come into contact with these guys at all? While I can agree with the argument that biofuels can compete with food and sustainable ecology, I really think he's playing on this far too much and ignoring possibilities like the growing of non-competitive non-food crops. He does very little on biodiesel, but just bangs on about ethanol. Did I miss something?
Also, here is a submission from the BAA.
If anyone else has any comments, please discuss them here.
There seem to be many voices out there and many organisations claiming to represent biofuels. Unfortunately, not many of them seem to bother to discuss what they do too publicly.
