Well, I wasn't going to throw any more fuel (get it? FUEL! HA!) on this
particular fire, but since you mention it, I did come across this article
today...

http://www.livescience.com/environment/060126_ethanol_better.html

(They also mention Brazil in passing.)

I'm not sure which studies to believe, mostly I think the point is that nobody
really knows exactly what the story is. There's too much speculation and wild
guesses being thrown around to say for sure one way or the other.
