When i here about the growing use of bio-diesel and ethanol, I always ponder wether to be happy thinking that the energy crisis are lastly to be solved and finally the petrol prices would come down within limits that I could afford. With the latest irony ' Which is the costliest place you could take your girl friend to ??? The answer is 'Petrol Pump'!!! In such days when I find that solar energy is making its mark and so are other non conventional sources of energy like biofuel and ethanol. Countries like brazil are making big leaps in using this energy conserving sources and so called life saving sources of energy. No doubt that this energies would be more efficient but at what cost???
The question seems to be very irrelevant to one who would not consider farmers growing interest in growing crops to produce ethanol and stuff. How much are we compensating for manufacturing oil that is not a bare neccesity against food without which only some famous saints had lived before nd its already history?? With this shift of focus farmers would ultimately lead to produce more of fuel than food and we already are witnessing some good cues about it seeing the average increase in the global food prices. So fuel at the cost of food , luxury at the cost of life?? Seems to be a great topic of debate.. And this debate will heat on as days go by and they are surely going to take ugly forms and its not that we will witness wars for food... Hope we restrain ourselves from that and we start changing our livestyles... coz the doom day will be hard to live in........
