"More than 3 billion people in the world are being condemned to a premature death from hunger and thirst,” Fidel Castro
It is nearly axiomatic that anything Cuban "President" Fidel Castro says will be false, incorrect, misleading, and downright pernicious... recently, el Presidente's grumblings have been worth hearing, not because they are precisely right, but because they are at least on the right track...The article is called Ethanol Versus the Poor, and it's worth reading.
interference by politicians in the market for fuel (added to the massive existing interference) has real-world impact, and Fidel Castro, of all people, understands...
Food for thought, from the Green Party of Canada website (emphasis mine: put them together to form one sentence):
We believe that to achieve sustainability, and in order to provide for the needs of present and future generations within the finite resources of the earth, continuing growth in global consumption, population and material inequity must be halted and reversed.
