Hello to the millions of people not reading my blog, and thank the Fraking Gods for the handful of people who are. I can no longer sit idly by and do nothing in the face of overwhelming misinformation. Bad studies and half truths stop here. This is the place for the truth on ethanol. I make you two promises.
1) I make zero money from ethanol as a fuel. I have no personal gain from ethanol (other than the personal satisfaction of lowering my carbon footprint and saving money on fuel)
2) If at anytime I see real, science based, conclusive data the shows that ethanol is bad, I will immediately start speaking out against it.
But as of right now, I have seen enough scientific data that leads me to believe that ethanol can save our plant, our lifestyle(as lame as it may be), and our economy.
A little back ground information.
Ethanol is in the group of chemicals called alcohols.
Ethanol is the active chemical in alcoholic beverages.
Ethanol, in its pure form can be burned as a fuel in internal combustion engine (ie your car). Most gas bought at the pump in the US contains 5-10% ethanol.
Any gasoline powered vehicle can be converted to run on pure alcohol, some don't even need conversion.
You can buy ethanol at some gas stations as E85, which is 15% gas, 85% ethanol.

There is a lot of negative information out there about ethanol as a fuel. I will address these all.
I have a plan.
