All Cars Can Run on Ethanol
The food vs fuel debate has been a long term piece of propaganda from the mainstream media. A common misconception is that using corn as fuel will make the price of food skyrocket . After watching a Documentary called Pump it explains how this is simply not true. Currently the majority of corn that is Grown in the united states is used as bio mass feed for cows. In order to make biofeed , the corn has to be put through a distillation process that makes 2 products , Ethanol and biomass. The Cows are fed the biomass and the ethanol is used as a blend with fossil fuels. Currently not all cars in the U.S. are made for flex fuels. But Brazil has proven that any car can be converted to flex fuel as the majority of their cars run on ethanol fuel and they export the majority of their crude oil. All the details are explained in the following clip.
I tend to think that some of the pressure being put on the advancements of ethanol and cleaner energy is put on there by fuel companies such as Exxon Mobil and BP because they want to make money selling their fuels
That is true, here in Brazil almost every car runs on ethanol, that we make from sugar cane. It is a clean and renewable source of fuel.
It's always been weird to me how EVERY invention we can think of in the past 20 years has gotten exponentially better and more innovative as a result of new technologies. But we're expected to believe there's no better way to power our vehicles? We can send a cell phone video from one side of the globe to the other in 5 seconds but our cars cannot run on an alternate fuel source? This stuff is clearly being bought and sold by powers much higher than us with their own self interest in mind. Money > Environment
Yes anything is better than what we are forced to use.
But my personal belief is that we all need a personal fuel less power supply made to the size and requirements off each persons needs, with the ability of being taken to any destination at any time to satisfy any power requirements.
