While we are in dyer need of energy efficiency, it seems the auto industry isn't all that ready to make the switch. Although they have known for years that ethanol was going to be making its way into the gasoline we use, they still insisted on pitching pennies and using cheap parts that would not perform well with more ethanol. And if ethanol made from corn is the problem, then why couldnt sugar cane based fuel be used?

Fate of the Polar Bear
Polar Scientists Discuss Polar Bear’s Fate
I wonder what more than the rapid decline of polar bear habitat, increased numbers of polar bear fatality due to starvation does it take for the species to be labeled as more than "threatened." Its not always easy to distinguish fact from propaganda, especially when both the right and left always seem to have their bases loaded with answers. But to me the fate of a species which plays such a important part in the chain of life needs to moved past politics, and is something an undivided human race should be aware of.
