Wisconsin
needs a renewable energy policy that provides ethanol as
a fuel choice to improve air quality, grow Wisconsin’s
economy, and reduce our dependency on foreign oil.
ETHANOL needs
to be a renewable fuel choice in Wisconsin.
The way to guarantee
market choice for renewable fuels is to make Ethanol
available. Consumers don't get to choose because
some oil companies won’t provide Ethanol unless required.
ETHANOL is good for the environment.
Ethanol made from corn is a clean burning fuel and reduces
greenhouse gas emission 12-19 percent compared with conventional
gas.
ETHANOL means economic development.
Ethanol plants in Wisconsin provide new jobs and an expanded
tax base.
ETHANOL means lower gas prices.
On average fuel blends using 10 percent ethanol
are 10 cents cheaper than fuels that don't use ethanol.
ETHANOL means energy independence.
Ethanol reduces the need to import 128,000 barrels of oil
per day. Wisconsin can have cleaner air while reducing
our dependence on foreign oil. |
