New Type of Fuel - Ethanol Fuel



New Type of Fuel  - Ethanol Fuel 

Image result for new fuel







This article analyses the proposal EPA, Environmental Protection Agency, made regarding gasoline. 

Over the years, there has been a discussion of "what is the next form of energy?" This question is constantly addressed since oil is limited and at a certain point, oil will cease to exist. Hence, why a new form of energy is needed. 

In previous discussions, there have been ideas with wind-power, solar-power, and even water-power devices. Yet today, we discuss the ethanol fuel: a fuel that has a concentration of corn within it. This type of fuel allows corn to be a major factor instead of the oil produced by energy corporations. In other words, this type of fuel puts a higher demand on farmers and decreases the demand for energy corporations. For this reason, the article compares the impact this has versus the campaign President Trump had when he was running for office. Overall, this proposal goes against what President Trump promised, and now he is attempting to lessen the impact energy corporations will receive. 

This article is related to this class because it shows how the "target" is always moving. This will require constant adaptation from individuals/corporations. 

I selected this article because it talks about gasoline and oil both of which impact our community here in Houston, as well as the United States. I also selected this article because I see a correlation between higher gasoline prices and higher demand for electric cars.

  2. This is an interesting article! It is always good to find different sources of energy. I read an article similar to this topic of finding different sources of power. In the article I read, researchers were able to generate a connection between natural and artificial leaves to capture and convert wind energy into electricity.
