 UN expert, Jean Ziegler, has called the use of crops to produce biofuels as a replacement for common petrol "a crime against humanity" saying it would bring about starvation for millions. Mr Ziegler said the mad dash to convert foodstuff to fuel was a recipe for disaster and called for a five year ban on the practice. The IMF announced last week that it had grave concern on the issue, saying the rising grain prices seen in the world's markets of late would have disastrous effects for the poor.
