Biosprit - Preistreiber für Lebensmittel # 08.03.2011 09 uhr # Journal Englisch

Marcus SchlenchMarch 8, 2011

# The German government's meeting today with representatives from the oil and auto industry.. to find out WHY a new biofuel at gas pumps across the country is so unpopular. Berlin introduced the new Super E-10 last month, in an effort to implement a European Union directive from Brussels. But drivers aren't buying it. And neither are environmentalists, who say the crops used to make bio-fuels are taking away farmland, that could be used to grow food.
