I really wonder if it is environmentally friendly total picture. Made from corn which requires Roundup Ready seed which is manufactured by Monsanto or whoever, Roundup applied to fields so they aren't plowed but the tractors are out running same field spraying roundup (which sure smells bad and can't be that good for us), new factories being built to make the ethanol and as near as I can tell a whole lot of steam (and what else?) being released in the process) Farm news says that as long as the price of corn stays up farmers will be taking their land out of the "banks" whatever they're called where they lay idle. I just don't know. Barb Kate Syssoloff <rockannand@xxxxxxx> wrote: It burns faster than gas and costs more to produce So much for the environment!!
