All Bio fuel is not bad?

As you will know from my posts about Bio fuels I am against the idea of replacing agricultural land with land used to grow crops for use in the bio fuel arena. I did however come across and article published on Media 24 which would seem to hold so merit.I have taken some extracts from…

How we can all help fight crime
