Sorry Mr Zubrin. Whenever I think Monckton’s got it wrong, I’m usually missing something.

Back in 2007 the greenies were confusing all well meaning environmentalist on bio-fuels:-

and they link directly to no less a commentator than that prominent environmentalist himself, Moonbat of the Guardian:-

That’s where talk of foodprices doubling and food riots due to biofuels came from.

Of course, we wouldn’t expect food prices to keep doubling (necessarily) every year, but it has indeed happened.

Now in the midst of a heated exchange with aggitators I think Lord Monckton might be excused for not specificying every detail of his argument.
