thing that we have to remember about all forms of bio fuels biomass fuels is its organic in some way or form. IT contains VITAL NUTRIENTS NEEDED TO KEEP PLANT CYCLE OF LIFE GOING.
Ecosystem has developed the perfect recycling program in regards to not letting things go to waste or that includes dead plants they all have a purpose from seed to decaying matter every last iota does not go to waste.
By using bio fuels and biomass fuels we disrupt the natural "PERFECT BALANCE" our ecosystem has established. WE ARE BREAKING THAT PERFECT BALANCE AND CIRCLE by BURNING BIO FUELS. Every day that we burn bio fuels is another day Accelerating closer to extinction. Once the nutrients are BURNED the nutrients are gone for good. It cannot be replaced for the energy is in another form which will not return. Example of this is look at the Australia interior its desert unable to grow food or a forest. Why? there use to be a civilization that burned the forest off to create farm land and to provide area for there farm animals. Only problem is they upset the Perfect ecosystem and they died off as a result extinct, Along with most of the big animals that were part of the perfect ecosystem EXTINCT..
Why in the name of your almighty would you want to contribute to the harm and destruction of the world around you directly or indirectly? By using bio fuels period you are further degrading the perfect ecosystem.
Only true solution is to consume less. Period. I am personally almost to reducing 90% of my own footprint of my own base line(which was less than national average). I am healthier now than I was in January. Less stress too for I don't have to figure out if I am going to have fuel or not to power a vehicle I do not own.
Byproduct out of our bodies needs to be used to replace nutrients in the soil to help restore the "perfect balance". First we need to get the toxins out of our foods so that our byproduct is not so contaminated.
Humans as a whole Is the only animal on the planet who destroys the perfect balance thus that maybe why we have a brain. Being at the top is great power thus COMES GREAT RESPONSABILITY. Which we suck at. We were given our brains to be the care takers to be sure the balance was kept. So lets do that and we need to plan long term and set our goals accordingly.
long term goal prevent man made extinction. Any actions that accelerates us towards extinction needs to stop any plans to keep an illusion of reality going needs to stop. Bio fuels/Biomass fuels keep the illusion of comfort going at the expense of accelerating extinction. This is completely irresponsible, Immoral, Unethical.
Only true answer is simplify and consume less.. (hey I am a tech junkie or I
was )
Next question need to ask yourself is hwy do you want bio fuels deep down??
1. My guess is you are terrified to give up your creature comforts.
2. Terrified of change.
3. Thinking, you will be less happy without what you have now.
4. If you have a big EGO you maybe thinking people like me are saying this
stuff to bring people like you down in the gutter with us and where do we
get off telling you what to do and how to do it.
5. thinking worlds going to end anyway, will live in luxury and gluten to the
end.
6. nobody else is changing why should I?
7. I was told bio fuels were safe. (LIE bio fuels are 10 times more pollutant
than
diesel when figuring in total cost.)
8. Carbon offsetting works will continue to burn energy. (LIE new study out
saying planting new trees does very little in terms of absorbing co2 and
storing it. Plants will only absorb for about 3 years then they mainly just
exchange co2 for oxygen. Other limiting factors in limited ground
nutrients to get plant to continue growing.) {trees and plants need
planting anyway to offset for what we use in-terms of sprawl and timber
use for building homes and such.} (carbon offsetting is termed GREEN
WASHING its nothing more than to wash away your guilty conscience of
what you know deep down to be wrong.)
9. list goes on.......
Here is another reason Why you should be worried is we are consuming at an accelerating rate to become green and in the process we are accelerating the whole global warming. To produce green energy and products for we are trying to replace all the energy inefficient things that currently work. This is a change of only replacing when broken so energy is being consumed at a greater rate(more co2+equivalent), speeding every thing bad that is happening. The faster the change takes place the LESS THE ECOSYSTEM CAN ADAPT (that includes us). This is one thing where our high technology is killing us.
So the only way to slow this down is to simplify and consume less across the board. We also need to stop thinking in terms that just because we can means we should do it.
There are things happening that are happening 50+ years ahead of schedule, like ice shelf melting away and such. Accelerating pollinator die off, Accelerating rate of extinction as we see our ecosystem fall apart for its perfect balance has been cut off by our stupidity and arrogance in regards to changing our world to suit on desires. Yes I do blame myself for this along with the rest of the human race. So now I am believing in myself and my ability to see how thing fit together and try to stear other people away from catastrophe.... No I am not perfect either, for when I had less info, I was using info provided by big business on how replacing energy inefficient items with efficient items, that we could solve all our problems. Wrong, for the current generation of energy efficient items only get an 10-18% improvement ouch the improvements need to be in excess of 60-80+% increase in efficiency to justify making new infrastructure to make these new items.
Bio fuels is prime example of the low energy efficiency improvements. We only gain 3-4 percent improvement and we are building infrastructure for this THIS IS WASTE AND UNSUSTAINABLE! BUILDING NEW INFRASTRUCTURE IS EXTREMLY RESOURSE DEPLETING. SO we need to have long term plans in place that will minimize new infrastructure to when efficiency which includes the total cost is weighed in is a huge increase in efficiency This is the only way to cut co2+equivalents in the long run in regards to new tech.
