With alcohol fuel, you can become energy independent, reverse global warming, and survive Peak Oil in style. Alcohol fuel is "liquid sunshine" and can't be controlled by transnational corporations. You can produce alcohol for less than $1 a gallon, using a wide variety of plants and waste products, from algae to stale donuts. It's a much better fuel than gasoline, and you can use it in your car, right now. You can even use alcohol to generate electricity. Alcohol fuel production is ecologically sustainable, revitalizes farms and communities, and creates huge new opportunities for small-scale businesses. Its byproducts are clean and valuable. Alcohol has a proud history and a vital future.  To learn more, watch the five-minute "Alcohol Fuel Overview" video below, read the Two-Minute Summary, and check out our Alcohol Can Be a Gas! book and DVD

IIEA to Present E85 Emissions Test Results on March 24, 2010

**LIVE NEAR SACRAMENTO, CA? PLEASE JOIN US! **

What: Alcohol Fuel for Jobs and Clean Air News Event!

A public briefing and call to action to encourage the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to rule in favor of the increased use of alcohol fuel blends. The EPA has failed to issue a ruling allowing states to mandate an increase in the maximum alcohol fuel blend from 10 to 15% (E-15) nationwide citing a lack of sufficient understanding of the fuel’s potential benefits as a gas additive. 

The International Institute for Ecological Agriculture (IIEA) briefing will present the emissions test results from a study conducted at a California certified smog station using Daryl Hannah’s 1979 Pontiac Trans-Am of “Kill Bill” movie fame.

The car was converted to run on ethanol last fall and refutes the EPA’s concerns about higher blends of ethanol not being appropriate for older vehicles.

The testing compares the exhaust emissions of unleaded gas with E-10, E-15, and E-85 fuel blends, demonstrating that there is no reason to delay increasing the use of alcohol as a blended additive to reduce toxic emissions currently generated by burning gasoline.

Where: “Flyers” E-85 fuel station located at 4250 Madison Avenue, North Highlands, CA. Go west on Madison Avenue just off I-80.

When: Wednesday March 24, 2010. The briefing and video uplink runs from 2:30 - 3:30pm PT
