“The negative impacts (of biofuels) were much greater than most had anticipated...the amount of crops needed to fill an SUV’s fuel tank with biofuel would feed a child for an entire year, and every gallon of biofuel wiped out forty meals… “A srong climate campaigner called the subsidies driving the biofuel industry’s growth ‘a crime against humanity.’ Yet, vested agricultural interests had made the bad policies almost impossible to overturn. It seems that we have learned little from recent history, as we plow headlong into new policies that will similarly hurt the world’s poor.” — Bjorn Lomborg
