Berkeley University found that corn ethanol reduces greenhouse gas emissions by about 13%, whereas another form of ethanol called cellulosic ethanol would produce about 85% fewer greenhouse gases than gasoline.

I said that this government is meek in its understanding of making intelligent choices for the 21st century to drive our investments into the field of cellulosic ethanol as opposed to corn ethanol.

That is 13% for corn and 85% for cellulosic ethanol.

For cellulose ethanol, it's about 90% reduction over gasoline on a life cycle basis; for corn and wheat you're looking in the 40% to 50% range, depending on the particular plant; and for tallow this is rendered animal fat similar to cellulose you're looking in the range of 90% reduction.

42. Notes that the cost of processing bio-diesel in India is about one third of that in Europe and that India has recently decided to expand its bio-diesel refining programmes; notes that India is expanding its ethanol industry and the government has enacted several types of financial incentives, including sales tax reductions and reduced excise duties on ethanol and ethanol-blended fuels; considers non-edible Jatropha to present a viable bio-fuel option for India, as it can grow in semi arid and arid soils and entail minimal investment, and encourages EU-India co-operation to this end; considers that, in addition to creating approxim ...[+++]ately 17 million new jobs and bringing revenue to depressed rural communities, such programmes will help reduce India's dependence on foreign oil but only if they are carried out in a sustainable way;

The production of protein fodder crops as by-products of biofuels (oil cake in the case of vegetable oils and spent grain in the case of cereal-based ethanol) is a substantial benefit as the EU's shortfall, of 75% of its requirements, has been further exacerbated by the ban on meat and bone meal in animal feed.
