for crops to be grown specifically for it, can you imagine the ammount of farmable land required to produce enough bio deisels to replace the millions of barrels of oil per DAY the world is using? i think one of the only things more scarce than our oil supplys is our usable land.

have a read of this..and i mean all of it

That's always been my concern when someone mentions biodeisel. The land needed would be crazy. As an example, I work at a minesite and we use over 100K litres of diesel per day, every day. There are dozens and dozens of mines here is WA using diesel powered heavy machinery. I wonder what the total usage per days is alone. 10ML+ per DAY? Then add domestic and commercial usage on top of that.
You only have to look at the size of our wheatbelt farming area here in WA and that wouldn't produces a poofteeth of the tonnage needed to produce biodiesel ultimateley.
