Biofuel Efforts a Sham

A full and responsible description of the causes of euthanol, albeit just a little on the depressing side.

The Great Biofuel Famine

Your SUV Ate My Dinner!

Euthanol strikes again!!

Full Story Here.

This is no way to treat people:

biofuel policies will significantly contribute to the early, avoidable deaths of between 10 and 20 million people in the year 2008 alone.

P.S. For those that didn’t read my previous post, ‘euthanol’ is my own ‘mashed’ term combining ‘euthanasia’ and ‘ethanol’.

Meltdown of $US as China Sells

Full Story Here.

The continuing decline is taking global health with it. The dropping value of the US dollar is resulting in rapid price increase in global commodity prices, including wheat, gold, oil, rice and corn. All of these increases are creating global food shortages that are unprecedented.

My gut still remains in the same place: is there a way to bypass US dollar pricing for commodities, with the expectation that international pricing, as opposed to American pricing, will smooth the complex tsunami wave of changing prices?

Ethan-Ethics or Euthanol. Translation: “Eat My Fumes”

Full Story Here.

Is this the ultimate twist on the old dooming expression from Marie Antoinette? As we burn out our oil, are we prepared to starve the planet for our cars? Is this ethical?

If I were in the bumper sticker business, I’d probably have sayings like “My SUV ate your dinner” (of course, I don’t own an SUV), with big growling teeth stretched out over a little family with arms extended with empty bowls, like some modern version of Oliver Twist asking for some more of the rice or corn that they grew for themselves.

We need to start using a new term liberally so that people understand what’s happening to the world’s food supply: I’ll call it “Ethan-Ethics” for now. Maybe “Euthanol” (a combination of euthanasia and ethanol) might be a better term?
