1-19-2008 How much can we do? So today I was thinking and thought, “How much can we do?” I mean there are so many things a person can do nowadays. There are so many opportunities that a person can take today. You can no longer say, ” It’s too hard or it’s too expensive.” Today going green is a lot easier and a lot cheaper then ever before. I have done to my best ability to become a less pollutive person, and I feel yet that I should do more. If every person would care about the environment just a bit it would change so much. We need to educate the importance of saving our environment. -Jacob R		1-14-2008 BioFuels May Do More Harm Than Good. According to the Royal Society and the European Union, unless strict rules are imposed on how biofuels are grown, biofuels have the potential to do more harm than good. Biofuels have the potential to reduce greenhouse gases, however, the devastation to forest lands to clear way for agricultural farming could do more harm to the environment. The problem lies with the battle for remaining arable land for crops and a growing demand for food as the worlds population continues to rise. Scientists that have studied the issue argue that more carbon dioxide emissions could be saved by protecting forest land rather than using biofuels. The argument for biofuels and its implications are clearly not over and only time will tell the outcome over this issue.
