This has been posted before. I will say the same thing I did that time.
If you try hard enough you cam make anything look bad and bad gets headlines. For every study like this that says it is bad there are 1,000 that dispute it. This was a study that wanted a certain result and they worked hard to massage the data to get it.

Solar and wind can't hope to fuel even America's energy needs in an effort to replace fossil fuels being used in vehicles, is more what I meant Unless they want to give everyone free solar panels with the purchase of an electric vehicle

Not news. Takes way more energy to grow and process than just pumping/burning oil.
I didn't read the article. Did I get it right?

No. It assumes it's not made using surplus crop and instead needs to clear all new land... As mentioned, it looks for a way to say what they want to say.

Funny how old capped off oil wells are suddenly full again. Earth makes more. Go figure.
