Talk:Demand for biofuel irrigation worsens global water crisis

There is nothing about this article that justifies the title. The cited articles indicate that it is a combination of food and biofuel production that worsens the crisis. And most of the articles including this one indicate that the mismanagement by governments are the primary cause of the crisis not the choice of grains and biofuel production.

You are right. Indeed, as I hacked away at it the story ended up being more about water management than biofuels. Thats what I get when comipling an article after the headline has been written! At least there's this from the article: "...Record oil prices and concerns about rapid onset climate change are driving more countries to produce biofuels - from sugarcane, corn or wood - as an alternative to fossil fuel. "If people are growing biofuels and food it will put another new stress..." Perhaps a title change? To - "Water mis-management adds to global water crisis" Or something... --elliot_k 15:51, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
