Battle Back Against Negative Media Attention 

Over the past few years, there has been a fire storm of negative press claiming corn-based ethanol is the sole driver behind rising food prices. While many facts and figures are out there that prove otherwise, most reporters and Internet bloggers have chosen to ignore them. We have provided an example "Letter to the Editor" as well as links to key studies that prove our case. 

Help us battle back against the myths, and let's set the record straight. Use the resources on the "Food and Fuel Research" page to submit letters to your local newspapers, regional newspapers or broadcast media to bring attention to the facts of the "Food vs Fuel" issue.
