Gas Prices Are Out of Control. Can We Talk About Ethanol Now?

June 12, 2013

Gas here is well over $4 a gallon right now. I know Congress still can’t get a farm bill passed. I know there are scandals going on. But, seriously, we need to talk about the price of fuel.

Because, let’s be honest, it affects our economy pretty seriously

I snapped that picture on Sunday afternoon. E-85, which as you can see is made of at least 70% ethanol, is currently just under $1 less per gallon than Regular.

We obviously need to have the talk with people. But to have that conversation, we need to be armed with the facts.

I’m sure you know the mantra, but do you know how to respond?

Here are some excerpts pulled from a brochure produced by Growth Energy:
