The biodiesel tour starts on a note that Stanford has done a study that determined no great CO2 savings come from using ethanol or biodiesel. Ethanol actually may generate more than getting a the equivalent in oil out of the ground.
While "every little bit helps" biodiesel from wastes in a minute potential source. It sounds good when someone says they run their car on all the oil cooking oil 13 area restaurants throw away - but the "supply" isn't there if more want "biodiesel". All it does is divert the waste oil away from other industries using wastes with esters and triglycerides in them, which then results in China and Brazil suplying those needs by chopping down more forests.
Sheryl Crow is just getting slammed in good fun. Laurie David is, on the other hand, a smug Learjet liberal who thinks because she married a billionaire, that she has the power to demand access to lobby at dinner ceremonies. Which she doesn't....Just because John Edwards will hear her out for a nice fat Larry David check doesn't mean Rove will for nothing.
