Ethanol and methanol have been available for more
than 70 years. If they carried the same capital and same subsidies then
oil would shrink as a global competitor. Bet on Shell and BP to lead the
way into alternatives because we have already hit the peak of the oil reserves
on this planet and they are going to switch over their infrastructure
first. Hemp is also becoming a cash crop again in Europe and Canada and
will provide a catalyst toward ethanol efficiency and cost. Corn is a good
start, but it requires more water and is abundant and cheap. Ethanol can
only be mass produced with an efficient source and oil is fading into the
history books where history will not treat her lightly.
Any thoughts on the many subjects I have brought
up?
