growing the corn is one thing, his point was the energy involved in creating the ethanol from it. its the same as hydrogen fuel. sure the car running on hydrogen has 0 emissions, but factor in that it used way more energy/polution to create the hydrogen than gas refineries/a car running on gas. so the point is are you really coming out ahead overall?
