		<description><![CDATA[Sad to see Obama may not represent real change by supporting corn ethanol. 

I&#039;ve done 7 or 8 articles on biofuels and  scientists/experts agree corn ethanol is no better than burning gasoline, and likely worse when it comes to carbon emissions. Ethanol is also heavily subsidized by taxpayers, a form of corporate welfare since most ethanol companies are very large and profitable corporations such as ADM. 

Offshore drilling would be worse. Oil companies are also subsidized by taxpayers - yes indeed - tax breaks for exploration etc, etc. We need to leave fossil fuels in the ground until we figure out a way to deal with climate change.]]></description>
