When Corn Kills Revisited Posted by Ilan Goldenberg

A year ago I wrote this post which was inspired by an excellent article in Foreign Affairs by C. Ford Runge and Benjamin Senauer.  The article is the single best piece I've read about how corn ethanol is wreaking havoc on world food markets. 

Filling the 25-gallon tank of an SUV with pure ethanol requires over 450 pounds of corn -- which contains enough calories to feed one person for a year. By putting pressure on global supplies of edible crops, the surge in ethanol production will translate into higher prices for both processed and staple foods around the world. Biofuels have tied oil and food prices together in ways that could profoundly upset the relationships between food producers, consumers, and nations in the years ahead, with potentially devastating implications for both global poverty and food security.

Read the whole thing.  It's a great piece.  They clearly saw this coming a year ago.

Hmm it appears like your blog ate my first comment (it was super long) so I guess I’ll just sum it up what I submitted and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog. I as well am an aspiring blog blogger but I’m still new to everything. Do you have any points for first-time blog writers? I’d certainly appreciate it.
