Goals and chemicals

Should we drive or eat?

I was driving fast through the countryside and suddenly felt hungry..turned on my radio and heard .."144 USD per oil barrel.."...I thought to myself ..nothing new as oil prices these days are going up...I wondered why so expensive? Maybe because someone is making a couple bucks (as Paul Krugman explains)..?.. or because now is time to get serious about oil-based economy and is time to shift for green sources.. then...what about corn..and ethanol...(check for this article "Six Ethanol Myths" at Wired).

Nowadays..we have more great news as food prices are up 3% (according to Edward Lazear - ethanol-only estimate) excuse me ..75% due to biofuels (according to The Guardian) well make your own conclusions..I think we need more studies...

Let's go and get something to eat...
