    We don't have anywhere near enough farm land to grow enough crops to produce enough biofuel to replace oil imports. Growing corn to make ethanol has much too low of a yield, and frankly, it's only done as a govt hand-out to Big Corn.
    A good biofuel strategy would instead focus on algae which can have a yield 10x as much fuel as corn. It also doesn't require as much fertilizer, farm equipment, or other energy inputs of corn. Finally, algae systems can be put anywhere--in the desert on top of roofs--not just on prime farm land.

      Until the naysayers sit down, your idea will not get the oxygen necessary for adoption. When will that be? When the big players are forced to change tack and divert mega resources into beneficial processes research development AND commercialisation. All the startups in the world with fantastic ideas worthy of implementation will get nowhere if they just end up being bought out and merged with the big boys and their ideas put to sleep.

    We waste a lot of energy from our sewage and organic trash like food scraps. We should have a third bin for trash, recycling then food scraps or have homes have a beefed up(more powerful) garbage disposal that will grind up organic trash and put in the sewer system to take advantage of existing infrastructure to transport it. Then either using bacteria or fungi to help digest into useful products like fertilizer instead of petro based fert and biofuels and if using fungi that produce edibile fruiting bodies use for livestock feed

    Absolute BS, it requires more energy to produce biofuels than the energy generated by biofuels.

      +CBreeze Good point. Arterran Renewables does just that: www.prlog.org/12498603-arterran-renewables-wins-startup-canada-award-for-sustainable-development.html
