Thats interesting about the switchgrass.Burning to offset the energy costs.How about burning the switchgrass to make corn ethanol after they extract ethanol from the switchgrass?Since they would be burning it at one place,rather than a field like they do sugar cane,less pollution.They might even be able to put a scrubber or something on the smoke stack to lower pollution.I have read about,and seen on TV that they make a gas by burning trash,then put it in a tank and use it to run a big engine to make electricity.Maybe thats an option?Even if switchgrass wont work,lots of things will.The switchgrass just burning it might be worth growing it for that. I found that sugar cane was a lot better than corn.Maybe use sugar cane waste in the south and burn switchgrass to power the still and make electricity too?Burning switchgrass sounds better than burning oil to make ethanol or am I all wrong?
