The UN, in all its wisdom, has again launched a ridiculous claim against biofuels saying that biofuels are to blame for 75% of the rise in food costs. If this weren’t so depressingly false, it would be laughable.  The UN does not even consider oil to be a factor in food prices worth mentioning! 

From the AP:

The winner of the Stockholm Water Prize on Monday slammed the growing use of biofuels and urged people to eat less meat - to help cut the amount of water used in food production.

British professor John Anthony Allan said the effect of the growing use of biofuels “is too frightening to even begin to realize.”

Somebody should ask professor Allan about the water quality in Prince William Sound after the Exxon Valdez, or all the wonderful contributions fossil fuels have made to our environment.
