The food group is suing because, as a result of EPA's E15 waiver, ethanol production will increase and demand for corn (a necessary raw
material for ethanol) will rise significantly.
In addition there are versions of corn that can be grown where the stalk and leaves have been modified to produce
the material for ethanol while the grain can be harvested for food.

materials derived from biological sources (a category that includes both biofuels like
ethanol and biomass like wood used to generate electricity)-- should be included in prospective carbon taxes.
This received a big boost in Brazil, when companies with cane - based
ethanol distilleries realized that burning bagasse, the fibrous
