Aargh! Where do people get the idea that any alternative to petroleum will help reduce global warming?

Any process that generates energy by burning a hydrocarbon procudes CO2. That most certainly includes biofuels.

(In other news, unless you can find a place to mine hydrogen fuel cells, "hydrogen-powered cars" will also not necessarily reduce total CO2 emissions. Those fuel cells have to be charged up somehow.)
