IMO Since the revolution of renewable fuel the midwest has been stripped of forestry to plant corn. Google earth and you will stripping of North American. All that run off flows south down ALL river tributaries to the gulf polluting gulf, rivers, ponds and wetlands along the way. Government subsidies to produce renewable energy so they can say we're saving the environment. Which IMO is bull ****. IMO tree will be rare site in the Midwest in few years. From 1965 to today IMO 60% forestry in the Midwest has be bulldozed for corn fields. I don't think the rest will survive another 50 years as demand for corn and soybeans increase.
