Biodiesel Smarter magazine and designer David Huyck. The map is 34 inches wide by 22 inches tall and costs $20.

Biodiesel Smarter bills itself as "the magazine for biodiesel enthusiasts," and is rooted in the home-brewers mentality (a good thing). With articles like "Algae: The New Snake Oil" and "Dumping Glycerine for Fun and for Profit," it's not your standard biodiesel publication. Worth a read.

As for the new rules, known as the Renewable Fuels Standard (RFS2), these are expected to be released by the EPA sometime today after being pushed back late last year. The most controversial part of these rules are that:
The standard could include a requirement that corn-based ethanol produce less carbon dioxide over its life cycle than gasoline. The ethanol industry opposes the life-cycle emissions requirement, which would include emissions from land cleared abroad resulting from growth of biofuel crops in the U.S. -- the so-called "indirect land use" effect. The ethanol industry says any rule like this would be unfair.
