  • Ethanol may not be very cost effective or efficient to produce YET, but I have a feeling it will be. Gasoline wasn’t very efficient at one point either, and look how that turned around. Now it’s time for another revolution. But every miracle takes time. This isn’t going to be an instant gratification cure-all.

    I strongly believe that when the government stops paying farmers NOT to plant fields and those fields start producing more than fallow ground, then we’ll have a better supply for ethanol, and not just corn…sugar beets and cane have higher concentrations of sugars than corn. And there are organic ways to farm. Not every farmer dumps chemicals on the soil and lets it wash into the streams. Crops feed cows, cows make manure, manure feeds crops. And I think we can get more crops than the cows can eat. We just have to go back to the old ways of farming…using crop rotation, natural fertilizers, and our brains.

  • Ethanol is good.

  • U can’t make anybody talk about Ethanol if it is a boring conversation

    go to a chat room called www.tagged.com

  • Well, ethanol is the most evironmentally destructive alternative energy source of all.

    To produce ethanol you must clear grassland or forested land, (wildlife be damned!). The field is then plowed, fertilized (chemical pollution), irrigated (water must be diverted), sprayed with insecticide and herbacides (more chemical pollution) and then the product must be processed which generates more pollution and waste.

    If you want to see our remaining grasslands and forests cleared to produce alcohol then you must be a big fan of ethanol.

  • Lots of information out there regarding ethanol and other fuel products. It appears that it takes more BTU’s and government subsidies ($) to produce a gallon of ethanol than a gallon of gasoline. I don’t think there’s an economic breakeven point at which ehonal is cheaper. Part of problem are food products (corn/soy beans) are also feed for cattle and hogs and for us humans too and even some chickens and some cows that provide dairy products. I hate to suggest it but atomic power might be an answer to reduce our oil dependence. This may not be a popular topic on the left coast. Good luck

  • When I drink too much ethanol, I start indeed to talk a lot

    And generally, the next day, I don´t want to talk about how much ethanol I had the previous day.

    I share ethanol with friends.

    I would somehow state that I nevertheless consume less gallons of ethanol than my car. Well anyway, I do not mix ethanol and car driving for my own safety and I generally prefear walking home when I had ethanol.

  • Ethanol at this stage of technology for the usa is a dead subject, it takes more energy to produce a gallon of ethanol than you get out of it. It is doing more to hurt the environment by sucking up money that might go to other renewable rescources

  • Forget it you keep insulting me

  • Well, ethanol, yes. I have a lot of it at home. Vodka is best because people cannot smell it out of your mouth.

    The more I drink the more I talk. A booth at a Green Fair would take me about 16 ounces of the regular 80-proof….

  • In addition to raising the cost of food for poor people (because the corn is being used to make ethanol), it does not produce the energy of petroleum, so it is very inefficient. As was mentioned above, Nuclear Energy is the real, safe, effecient answer to energy production. It has been used safely for over 45 years with only minor problems and those where with the antiquated design of the facilities. Ethanol will probably never be a viable fuel since there are over 5 years of petroleum reserves just in North America alone.

  • I do not live in the said areas, but my answer is still yes.

  • I am willing to use Ethanol although I’d sooner us make more use of solar power instead or a natural resorce that in available without mining of any form.

  • I honestly don’t think ethanol is the way to go…I’m a biodiesel person myself:) I see most of the posters have listed many of the downsides of ethanol…well with the exception of specifics on how all food prices will skyrocket since corn products (sweetners, oil, etc) are used in their preparation. Tortilla riots in Mexico are just the tip of the iceberg.
    Still if you want a speaker, why not try the people at Ethanol Producer’s Magazine and ask them to put you into contact with someone with expertise.

  • I’d go electric, more eco friendly. Since u live on the coast, help get wave generators built, solar too, and wind. Then drive an electric car. It’s still cheaper than both ethanol and gas.

  • So you are just asking someone to do a booth. I think you need to find some place that sales these cars and get one of them to volunteer for the booth and allow them to set up displays. And maybe you can find someone through them that owns a car and can talk about it.

  • How can you say it’s boring if you are on a page about making australia a more enviromentally friendly place, ethanol is made from sugar cane this is a plant this is a healthy and natural resourse. It’s a cleaner burning fuel compared to regular fuels because it burns cleaner and is cleaner to refine and it’s a renewable source. It would also make running your car cheaper to run. I dont live in california i live in australia though.

    What are some of the things you do to lead a more sustainable lifestyle?

    Many years ago, Kate and I developed a Stewardship Model for Tom’s of Maine in order to codify all of the natural, sustainable practices we were already following—such as only using natural ingredients and never testing on animals. The Stewardship Model sets out very specific standards for natural, sustainable, and responsible practices, and guides all of us every day in our decision making. Kate and I also feel that a commitment to sustainability should be incorporated into all areas of the company—not just the product formulations. Let me share just two examples: our packaging designer, Jack, purchases only post-consumer-waste recycled and recyclable materials and soy-based inks; and my Director of Product Supply, Mark, had some great ideas about using renewable energy sources, so in 26, we began purchasing wind energy credits to offset 1% of our factory’s electricity needs.275 ✅ Answers?

    Where do you find the most helpful information about natural products?

    240 ✅ Answers? Favorite AnswerMy grandmother's lap and company information, ingredients lists, store cupboard.The problem with so called 'natural products' is that they often are not natural at all. I have one motto when it comes to putting things on my body 'If I won't happily eat it, then I won't ever put it on my skin' When commercial 'natural products' live up to my standards, I will reconsider them. In the mean time, the items that I have in my food cupboard are about the best I can do. Better for me, much better for the environment and better for people who are exploited in the production of commercial 'natural products'. Tell a sweatshop worker in a developing country that natural organic cotton is good for his/her health, wealth, community and well being. Natural store cupboard ingredients are not perfect, but they are the best I can do for myself, others and the natural world.

    Is there a difference between wind and a crosswind?

    My bf asked me to post this. He works construction and they said there was a 33 mph crosswind, he was wondering what the term means. I thought maybe it means winds are coming from different directions? If anyone knows the answer - we would appreciate it. Thanks in advance!5 ✅ Answers? Favorite AnswerYes there is a difference.Wind is the flow of air or other gases that compose an atmosphere (including that of the planet Earth). A crosswind is any wind that is blowing perpendicular to a line of travel, or perpendicular to a direction. In aviation, a crosswind is the component of wind that is blowing across the runway making a landing more difficult than if the wind were blowing straight down the runway.Wind can be flatulence. Crosswind could be a real angry smelling one!Wind is wind movement of air headwind ,tailwind,crosswind are all directions of air travel for them to announce a crosswind they should have been speaking of a specific spot or location .

    To what extent are recycling industries sustainable?

    Im working on my extended essay and I would like to know to what extent are recycling industries (such as the paper industry, lead-acid car battery industries, etc) authentically sustainable. What are your arguments ¨for and against¨? thank you✅ Answers ? Best Answer All of them involve some new materials. Only a certain percentage of the paper can be made from recycled paper and the recycled paper is of degraded quality so it isn't sustainable as it always needs new mulch. Lead Acid batteries involve grinding down the plates and putting them in new plastic enclosures, some plates can't be ground down any more and are replaced with new plates and the old plates sent to a metal recycling shop. It still takes new material to recycle batteries so they aren't sustainable. What recycling does is stretch out the material, they aren't truly sustainable but they make the industry more sustainable or rather less un-sustainable. - Chosen by Asker They are sustainable because without them, the stuff would pollute the environment and ruin the ecosystems. like sea animals will die trying to eat plastic stuff. people can cut their feet on sharp cans and etc etc, and the chemical leached Read more
