Introduction
As more concerns are being raised about the effects of greenhouse gases being produced and put into the atmosphere many different ideas are being looked at. These ideas are looking at reducing the amount of these gases that are put into the atmosphere. Not only is this an idea but researchers are looking for ways to produce a cheaper, but yet more effective alternative. One alternative that they have come up with to an alternative to regular gasoline that will be cheaper to produce as well as lower the amount of emissions that it will produce is Biofuels. Biofuels are, “All biofuels and bio-based products come from “biomass”, a term that covers all

A lot of them are very valid points and will be mentioned. If society were to switch to 100% ethanol gas companies would not be able to use the pipelines that already exist because of the chemical properties within the ethanol. This would mean companies would have to build a whole new pipeline system that would cost a ton of money. This would ultimately lead to higher prices of biofuels to help pay for the new way to transport the fuels. Another problem that is seen is that in order to meet the goal for President Bush 2017 goal all of the United States crop would have to be used in order to make it. If this was the case what would happen to America’s food supply of corn. The human population would not have any also dairies would not have the corn to feed the cows. This would lead to starvation, a major problem. Also to produce the corn would require a lot of chemical fertilizer as well as toxic herbicides which could ultimately risk the health of many people. As society can see for themselves these are just a few of the problems that exist with

It is going to take a combination of alternative fuels to help reduce greenhouse gases, and reduce price of production. As people can see not enough biofuels could be produced in order to sustain the needs of the people. It can however provide the world with some cushion to the problems the world is facing now. The national leaders cannot rely entirely on these or society could cause problems in other areas such as feeding everyone. There are many pros to biofuels and many negatives. The key is to just need to find the appropriate balance of production to satisfy the most needs. Once the balance has been found our energy resources will be a lot more efficient, and the emissions will be a lot lower causing less impact on the
