Still one important point that hasn't been given enough weight in the current debate I feel. Fossil fuel is Carbon that has been locked up for Eons and doesn't need to be re-released into a world of increasing carbon emmissions. Biofuel rehashes carbon that is in a free form in the environment at present and as such has very little effect on current atmospheric carbon ratios provided the efficiencies are as similar as they appear to be.
I'm all for leaving the old carbon where it is and trusting the current swamp ecosystems are still doing the job they did to lock up the carbon reserves back when the atmosphere was even less breathable than today. and then just maybe someone can come up with a turbo or burn that leaves a little more of the atmospheric nitrogen out of the current power stroke and nox emmissions will also fall. Along with most of the group though I agree that what we need is a power plant running now a little cleaner and not a daydream of power from some undiscoverered source that will stop emmissions, cancer, long working hours, missed short golf putts, and political parties of all persuasions!
