Always wanted to drive a buggy like that, never got around to it.

As for biofuels there is some thought that the present route isnt best, if they cut down forest or jungle to clear land then it may be worse than using fossil fuels.

I very much doubt that, biofuels are renewable and there are many fast growing speices of trees and grasses, fossil fuels are not renewable.One can use pine cones and scrap twigs etc. to make biofuels. Cutting down big forrests and jungles are stupid though when you can grow stuff that gives higher yield in a short time.

In this time of gloabal warming there is new research findings though
the global warming might have prevented a new isage !!!
but it is still good to lessen the use of fossil fuel to propel veichels as
we a running out of oil, might be better to use it to make plastic :)

They are cutting them down to make room to grow biofuels like palm oil. Even worse they are actually burning the stuff they cut down resulting in a huge emission of CO2 into the air.

Its as bonkers as cutting down natural vegetation so they can plant trees to count against CO2 generation  :?  Yes, they really do this as well :o

Hopefully the new agreement in Bali will change that.
