Brazil’s 37-year-old ethanol fuel program is based on the most efficient agricultural technology for sugarcane cultivation in the world,[12] uses modern equipment and cheap sugar cane as feedstock, the residual cane-waste (bagasse) is used to produce heat and power, which results in a very competitive price and also in a high energy balance (output energy/input energy), which varies from 8.3 for average conditions to 10.2 for best practice production
Or we could simply take the gazillions of barrels of oil that sit right underneath our own country. Or better yet, begin converting over to natural gas, which we have an unlimited supply of and burns cleaner and more efficiently.
