Can someone please explain to me how extracting bio fuel from a tree gives us any more energy than simply burning it in a wood powered power plant?
What's the yield of the process? Is it worth the effort?

“The seeds are also inedible, which makes the crop worry free when it comes to the controversial food-for-fuel debate.”
Well, actually, it’s also what resources are being diverted from food production - land, water, fertilizers, manpower, etc., etc., etc.
You’d think smart people would know that, but then it would interfere with their agenda and gov’t grants.
