| This is not the first time I've posted on food shortages , and judging from this video it won't be my last either. In fact I've been ranting about this for a few years now and some agree, but some of my more affluent fellow Americans think it's not a big deal, or that I'm not shopping in the right place.Think back a couple of years - how much has your favorite pizza gone up in price?

If you're like me and are griping about how expensive living has gotten in the US, then you too are complaining about diesel prices.

But at what costs? Gas grows ever more expensive and yet over the last decade you see more of these behemoths on

| The tyres are made of potatoes and the brake pads from ground cashew shells. The body was created from hemp and rapeseed oil, and it runs on fuel made from fermented wheat and sugar beet. Yet despite the greenest of credentials, this mean machine is capable of a highly-impressive 150mph. Eco One was designed by Dr Kerry Kirwan, a researcher at Warwick Manufacturing Group (WMG), the university's academic department which provides solutions to industry, and built by student Ben Wood over two months at a cost of £20,000. Powered by the engine from a Triumph Daytona motor-cycle, Eco One does
