Green lobbies are also turning against biodiesel. They now say that growing crops for biodiesel puts too much pressure on land and food prices...

As with ethanol in the U.S., though, Europe now has a glut of biodiesel.
I don’t think we have a glut of ethanol in the US but am willing to be corrected.

Using crops and waste to make biodiesel doesn’t seem to make sense. Wouldn’t it be better to make it with algae? All it would need is water, sunlight, and waste CO2.

Amazing ignorance in Europe and here. The alternate fuel crowd think you can replace gasoline with another carbon-based fuel (vegetable oil or ethanol) and reduce C02 emissions.
