Too good to be true?

Found this in an article last summer....

'Green' Energy Source a Major Polluter
"Ethanol has been dramatically oversold as a green energy source"

Most ethanol plants are built in rural areas and are sold as major job-producing engines, but Becker said the tons of pollution the plants churn out will have a major impact on the heartland's air quality and, consequently, the area's quality of life.
Surprisingly the story received very little coverage from mainstream media sources. Go figure.
