I am listening to the President press conference as he was talking about his" Clean Energy Bill "and how it will paid for by all the polluters.
I hope this includes the farmers in the Midwest that as a part of this will be producing much more ethanol with that high nitrogen based fertilizers.
You see the problem is much of that gets into the various rivers and eventually drains into the Gulf of Mexico off the Louisiana Coast. Producing a huge Dead Zone bigger than some states where nothing can live. Needless to say that is not good.
This year it is projected to be bigger than ever. See Gulf of Mexico 'dead zone' expanding and Gulf 'dead zone' to be size of New Jersey
I am curious when when when the media is going to start asking about this. I guess once it effects TEXAS maybe somebody will notice.
