Proceeding contribution from Chris Huhne (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 12 June 2007. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Carbon Dioxide Reduction Target.
Carbon Dioxide Reduction Target
Is not the hon. Gentleman concerned about some of the international evidence on biofuels—for example, that they are beginning to displace land used for food crops? For example, in the US there has been a rise in the price of corn from about $2 to $4 a bushel, and one of the side effects has been riots about the price of tortillas in Mexico.
