Bio-fuels and Skimming the Problem

Biofuels are a promising solution to the problem of dwindling oil reserves. Biofuels are made from biological waste which can potentially replace crude oil for the production of gasoline or other limited resources for energy production. Biofuels are created by reducing complex biological chains to the simpler ones that make gasoline, and other fuels. This could potentially knock off our dependency on oil, and reduce a ton of societal problems that our dependence on that resource forces. However, we are neglecting the fact that gasolines, or anything that follows a combustion reaction will emit, carbon dioxides into the air. The video never addressed this problem and that worried me, especially considering the effects these gases have had on climate change throughout the years.
