Yeah, Ethanol is a "net energy loss." It's also a "net environmental loss." When more and more corn gets grown, top soil takes a huge hit. The good little underground critters are killed by the increased insecticides and fertilizer needed to grow corn vs other crops. When one crop is the favored over another, people start disregarding crop rotations and make the problems even worse.
