OPEC has a bizarre story to tell you. The reason for the high oil prices is because the United States is developing competing fuels that lower our dependency on foreign oil.
Yeah, I’m not buying it either.
Reaction is fast and furious. The World BioFuels Industry has published an open letter to answer these ridiculous claims in the Financial Times last week.
You can get some background on this, as well as a link to a copy of the letter here: www.goodfuels.org/opec.

Declare Your Energy Independence!
Happy 4th of July. Today we celebrate our Independence from England, but unfortunately, not our independence from the Middle East.
As we all know, we are completely tied to Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Iran, Iraq, etc because we need oil. Yeah, that black stuff that costs $146 per barrel last I saw.
We can start to get off of the Oil Dependence by developing our Ethanol industry. You can get involved by signing this petition: http://www.thepetitionsite.com/1/declare-july-4th-energy-independence-day
If you want more information on why Ethanol is good (despite what you probably see on TV), you can get more info at http://www.drivingethanol.com/.
Oh, and have a cold one for me!
