You know what else is disturbing about this.... I may have read wrong when I was in the San diago Aquarium's global warming exhibit... but I'm Quite sure I read that Ethanol based fuel (the corn fuel they are talking about in this article) causes more air pollution than gasoline! That the only benefit to E85 Ethanol is PRICE....... SO lame ... not only are we killing the skies but now our little wet friends!
Not to get into a political discussion here but I think we can all agree we need a change in our government (not talking about just the president) to take a stand and put a stop to some things that are being allowed to happen to our environment. You know it was my understanding that the problem with using oil based fuel wasn’t just a problem with the price.... at least in my book price isn’t the only issue I have with oil based fuel. I think it’s not even a step in the right direction to use E85 ethanol but more of a trading price for more pollutants. We need to move to something that is not only friendly on our wallets but our little friends as well.
Sorry about the ethanol rant but this is one of the main reasons corn farmers are planting so much corn!
