EPA proposes raising biofuel blending in 2023 and beyond in win for corn lobby
The Environmental Protection Agency proposed raising the volumes of ethanol and biodiesel in the nation's fuel supply to new highs in 2023 and subsequent years, reflecting President Joe Biden's support for renewable transportation fuels.
I don't think people realize just how bad this is going to be.
All your small engine equipment needs a delicate balance of Ethanol in fuel. If they push this beyond the 10%, up to 15%+, this will destroy engines on lawn mowers and all other lawn equipment, your generators, etc...
This is going to wreck some major industries which will include lawn and land maintenance, construction companies, and any others that rely on small engine equipment that does not run on diesel.
This is probably the DS's goal. It's an easy way to get rid of gas engines and force people to use electric.
Goes hand in hand with their electric push. SHTF coming in 2023.
Processing ethanol consumes much more energy and produces much more greenhouse gases than it saves.
On the upside, this is great for the Chinese manufacturers of fuel injectors and small engine components!
