Why does it have to be called green? Nobody ever says, "Oh! Look at the pretty green flowers!" Blue is a much prettier color.

Yeah, so how much does it cost per gallon? My diesel is going for $2.60 a gallon.
How much land does it use? How fast do the plants grow? What's the yield per acre?
Renewables are great so long as they don't increase costs of food, etc.

"sustainable biomass" ... There's no such thing. You can't grow biomass fast enough to fuel us.
