This nonsense only sells in Europe, in major decline due its terrible energy policies abandoning fossil fuels in favor of expensive, unreliable solar and wind farms. Using food to make fuel (ethanol, biodiesel, SAF) is nearly criminal, especially in light of grain shortages created by Putin’s war on Liberty.
