I’m not a big believer in the man-made global warming debate so I love to get involved in this “political” discussion (I believe this is a political issue rather than a science one I’m afraid).

Anyway, this bio-fuels idea. All good in that the fuel would come from a sustainable source whilst oil is a finite resource. However, the amount of fertile land to generate bio-fuel crops is apparently huge, such that if bio-fuels become a mass-market product, there is talk of us using land to grow fuel instead of land to grow food. All interesting….

P.S. I work in the oil industry and I’m now getting told than Saudi’s reserves are 250 years and a new field in Iraq could potentially have another 250 years worth of reserves. That’s 500 years. I was always told at school there would be no oil by 2010! Don’t believe everything you read or hear.

Sorry if this is partly a thread hijack….
