You are correct Bramabill. Even though they declare themselves green, there are other ramifications just as you mentioned. As a Mississippian, I can tell you that it will be extremely difficult to get more land into farming when the major industries in this state are tree farming, catfish farming, and deer hunting (although the latter doesn't make money - it sure does absorb a lot).

Good post.

just my two cents...

Buffer zones between crop land and running water can help with runoff pollution. Irrigation techniques can reduce runoff as well by only giving the plants what they need and where they need it. Feeding the land or the soil - that is building up the soil with carbon first of all so that leaching nutrients are bound up in the carbon molecule. It is the cation exchange capacity of the soil or CEC.

Now lets skip ahead a bit and suppose that plants could be planted on polluted land and take up and or break down the pollution in the soil. Wonder if that biomass can then be converted into fuel and energy.
