That can be renewable, i mean after all it does rain? Doesnt it.<br /><br />It takes Nitrogen fertilizer to grow corn, which is made from Natural Gas, which is not a renewable source of energy. There is just lots of it. (In areas the government has off limits to exploration)<br /><br />Phosphorous is mined if iam not mistaken. Mines dont produce forever. Isnt Mining considered detrimental to the environment by the enviro nut jobs? <br /><br />So in a nutshell, the clean, green energy needs fossil fuels to be produced.<br />I think some folks are putting the cart before the horse without thinkin this stuff through,Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15898206.post-86181509995559461652009-05-02T00:53:00.000-04:002009-05-02T00:53:00.000-04:00No kidding...
