Incorrect. The jatropha plant does not contain sugar or starch in quantities to produce ethenol. Ethenol is best made from sugary or starchy plants such as corn, beets, sugarcane etc. It is actually distilled. Jatropha is harvested for it's oily content.

As far as green being the way to go. You will not see green anything making an impact in your lifetime. There is to much money in oil and they are just not going to give it up. What your seeing from oil companies and automotive industry is nothing more than appearance of perception. They show you what you want to see. Oil companies make anywhere between 5 and 10 billion per quarter. Show me a green company that makes 1 bil a year.
