From USA today:
U.S. and Brazilian officials are negotiating details of an ethanol partnership in advance of President Bush’s scheduled visit to Brazil next week.
“We are interested in forming a global ethanol market†with the United States, Brazilian Foreign Minister Celso Amorim said this week.
If completed, the planned deal would help increase both nations’ production of ethanol, creating significant economic as well as political implications.
Um, how is being dependent on foreign ethonol better than being dependent on foreign oil? Color me stupid, but I don’t get it.
