Instead, Ethanol, made from corn, helps reverse the global warming that currently threatens our environment. Ethanol blends dramatically reduce hydrocarbon emissions, a major contributor to the depletion of the ozone layer. Ethanol's performance has been proven by years of use. The Nebraska State Highway Patrol has successfully used Ethanol-blended fuel for the past fourteen years. The Ohio State Highway Patrol has introduced Ethanol into their fleets, and it has provided excellent results.
