GM Says Half Of Vehicles Will Run On Ethanol By 2012
By Mr Ethanol | February 8, 2008
WLNS:
General Motors says it’s going greener. GM says half its US vehicles will run on ethanol by the year 2012.
This comes as its partner Coskata Incorporated is expected to increase ethanol production.
The auto giant says they will have 11 ethanol-capable vehicles on the market this year and fifteen by next. Coskata says it will be able to mass produce ethanol for less than a dollar a gallon. It plans on using a process that converts feedstock and agricultural waste into ethanol.

I think it’s great that GM is stepping up and doing what they could have done years ago.
However, I read a story in the New York Times last Thursday, wherein, the author reported “Almost all biofuels used today cause more greenhouse gas emissions than conventional fuels if the full emissions costs of producing these ‘green’ fuels are taken into account, two studies being published Thursday have concluded.”
So where does that leave us now?
