[QUOTE="Campground Cattle, post: 96774, member: 195"] First cutting off OPEC would leave the country about 7 million barels a day short that can not be replace by ethanol. Secondly producing ethanol to fuel is kinda like hydrogen to produce enough h2 to rplace 15 gals in gasoline would cost you about 600 dollars to produce for the same amount of energy. One of the myths about ethanol is yes it burns cleaner but it takes a lot more energy to produce a useable fuel so more pollution. You couldn't grow enough grain in the entire world to produce 7 million barrels a day in fuel. One anwser that seems viable in the near future 20 years is placing a naturel gas reformer under the hood that converts natural gas to hydrogen. Only problem is you will still have to convert organic hydrocarbons to natural gas to meet demand. [/QUOTE]
