United States Secretary of Energy Steven Chu is by far my favorite member of the Obama Administration; I am even one of his many facebook fans.

To me, the Nobel Laueate Chu comes across as a no nonsense incredibly competent visionary, and his practical genius shines though every time he speaks. This is a short clip of him explaining the tremendous potential to make ethanol from agricultural wastes, yeast and drought tolerant miscanthus grass.
