The footprint for what they call green energy is staggering.

Once CA government officials learned that it’s made using a trans reaction, they knew they had to support it.

Ya'll have fun. I'm off to assess a chemical plant that Wall Street totally screwed up cost to complete and about to be torn down. It would have had a great ROI but for construction mismanagement and plug pulled after 3X budget.
Good emerging technology is usually screwed up by investment bankers. What's trenging technology usually fails but backed to the hilt by Wall Street investment bankers.

The largest percentage of feedstock for biodiesel is vegetable oils. Soybean oil makes up over half of it.

This is a great comment for those of us who passed organic chemistry the first time.

CA requires biodiesel , but won’t allow biodiesel plants to be built in state bc of emissions. They have no problem with the plants emissions in Louisiana.
Bet a dollar the CA politicians are involved in the attempt to block Formosa. Talk about a bunch of fricking hypocrites.

Go look at the transportation cost and how it is shipped. This whole green and sustainable BS is the biggest scam ever perpetrated on the world. A power and money grab of epic proportion.

It’s really just a way for politicians to pocket cash.
Carbon offsets are a good example of that.

Drives the price of soybeans up due to forced demand. Farm corporations makes bigger profit. Passed on to consumer.

With all that government protection and huge profits from farming, it makes one wonder why everyone isn’t trying to get a piece of the action and start up their own row crop farms.

Welfare for farmers. Same as ethanol.
Only to an extent. A lot of it comes from used cooking oil.

Corporate farming is squeezing out that ability.

The farms are getting bigger because very few want to continue the level of work required and the margins are smaller.
What do you consider “corporate” farming?

Corporate farming is 1000s of acres of farming with tractors self automated using GPS and AI tech.
If we are gonna subsidize the industry it should be for small local farmers to actually grow food for humans instead of crap for ethanol and feed. We are killing biodiversity by only growing a couple of strains of corn, wheat, and rice. F monsanto and all those like them

Don't have a number or anything that is what you are asking.
To me, a farmer is someone who has a representative in Washington DC, who he can call, that he elected. A corporate farmer is someone who has a representative in DC that they call to go talk to that other guys representative.
