The Greener Diamond Foundation
The Greener Diamond Foundation = Inspire + educate consumers on the true cost of earth-mined diamonds: financially, environmentally and socially. I think it's a great idea + if it helps to raise awareness on African issues such as HIV/AIDS + provide assistance to desperate communities, then diamonds will truly retain its natural luster.

TMO Renewables
Here is what TMO Renewables's site says about ethanol:
TMO Renewables has developed a groundbreaking method for producing ethanol from almost any type of biomass or biowaste. This technology will allow the production of lignocellulosic ethanol at low cost with many economic, social and environmental advantages.

I think once the infrastructure for supplying the raw materials are worked out, we are going to see second generation technology in place, making ethanol from biomass. The fuel ethanol market is gigantic.

Random Thoughts
And you may find yourself behind the wheel of a large automobile
And you may find yourself in a beautiful house, with a beautiful wife
And you may ask yourself -Well...How did I get here?
And you may ask yourself
Where is that large automobile?
And you may tell yourself
This is not my beautiful house!
And you may tell yourself
This is not my beautiful wife!
