Has anyone heard of making energy from Tequila?  See  <a href="http://www.theactionblog.com/green-consumer/fuel-from-tequila-new-green-energy-source-found.php">Fuel from Tequila: New Green Energy Source Found</a>.

Is this a real possible solution to the world's energy problems?  Does the production of said energy = a zeo carbon footprint?

Let's assume for a moment you have not just spammed us with a link...

Interesting. Especially taking into account date it was published.

but, ethanol can be zero foot print when made from vegetable matter.

The date of that particular article is April 1st.    Granted, ethanol from corn is produced in the US as a gasoline additive, and fuel ethanol has been produced in Brazil from sugarcane waste.  These processes have pros and cons economically and environmentally, and politically, and ... oh, sort it out on your own.  Point is, the agave is a slow growing plant, and pretty endangered, outside of what's grown for consumption.  So mentioning tequila as a motor fuel is very likely squarely in the joke arena.
