Der Spiegel Exposes the Brazilian Ethanol Madness
Why the Promise of Biofuels is a Lie
By Robert Bryce
For years, the US has been inundated with claims that it should follow Brazil's lead on biofuels. These arguments have largely been made by a small, but influential group of neoconservatives who claim that the US should quit using oil altogether. They claim that using more ethanol - produced from sugar cane, or corn, or some other substance - will impoverish OPEC and America will once again be returned to prosperity.
