Over at Autoblog Green (which has a nice new design and favicon) they're saying that The Guardian ran a news item stating that The World Bank has come out and said that Biofuels are responsible for a 75% increase in food prices.
The previously mentioned group Food Before Fuel estimated a measly 30% increase and the US government reckons it was only 3%... but they also said they landed on the moon and nothing crashed at Roswell.
I think the worst part of the story is that the report was released in April but was withheld so as not to embarrass George W. Way to go!
