Default Re: New Tires Made of Oil from Orange Peels

Great idea, but I see the same flaw in this that I do with bio-diesel. You have to start producing more crops to supply the demand for the new product.

That's why hundreds of thousands of acres of rain forest are stripped bare each year, to grow soybeans for bio fuels. Though at least oranges grow on trees.
