Also, fermenting the corn to alcohol results in more meat than if you fed the corn directly to the cattle. We can actually increase the meat supply by first processing corn into alcohol, which only takes 28% of the starch, leaving all the protein and fat, creating a higher-quality animal feed than the original corn.
The real ecological nightmare is industrial agriculture. Switching to organic-style crop rotation will cut energy use on farms by a third or more: no more petroleum-based herbicides, pesticides, or chemical fertilizers. Fertilizer needs can be served either by applying the byproducts left over from the alcohol manufacturing process directly to the soil, or by first running the byproducts through animals as feed.
Hungry ?? have less kids...ethanol from sugarcane can produce up to 3000 gallons per square acre with rain water only. Corn ethanol, 600 galoons and you need 3 gallons of water to make 1 of corn ethanol. Learn from Brazil. The bagasse of the sugarcane u can use it as fertilizer, food for animals and synthetic plastic. We can grow in Puerto Rico, Florida,Lousiana, Texas, Hawaii and all US.Island in the Caribean. Simple.
This was awesome, dude. Watched the whole thing. I'm glad ethanol won. Even though it's less efficient than petroleum, it's a better source in the long run because it is renewable and cleaner. We need to downsize our economy and reduce global population, though, to make it viable. But...the industry had to go the wrong way and use evil, dirty petroleum...ech!
Nothing wrong with natural gas, but you are wrong about ethanol taking food from people. do some research, where does the corn go after fermentation. you people really don't know anything about whiskey do you, that is what ethanol is.

LOL, solar? driving a car on solar? Crazy? A solar panel the size of a 18 wheel truck is needed for a family car. its not practical.

you have to use a lot of water for all the plants to make ethanol + with a full tank of ethanol can eat 7 people. natural gas is the answer.

Thats because the USA is retarded, they use corn.
Use sugarcane like the rest of the world.
Subsidary corn prices "originally done for the creation of corn syrup" is why they use corn. stupid stupid stupid.

Ethanol is more efficient, tune your motor to burn it. your motor is tuned to but gas.
