Post 04/15

I know we are supposed to be writing a post about something we discussed or did in class, but we didn't have class today. I had my conference with Dr. Sullivan the other day and I thought that it was really helpful to have his input on our profiles. Now I am starting to write my position statement for the class. I am writing about the benefits of Ethanol production and I am having a hard time finding sources that are 100% in support of Ethanol. I suppose this is a good thing because a lot of this information is non biased, so I can arrive at my conclusion easier. Also, I noticed that some information pertaining to the production of Ethanol can also be found in DNGC. For example, I found an article that talked about how scientists at MIT are genetically engineering corn plants that have a higher yield for Ethanol production. The same type of information can be found in both books, which makes me trust my sources a little more.
