Leading Critics

Ok, found a couple of guys who apparently are leading the critique against Ethanol.

Q&A on Ethanol Issues

Interesting points... I think his major issue is using only Corn to produce Ethanol, which I believe is not required.

This paper attempts to rebut the position that it takes less energy to make ethanol than one gets out of it. I hope that's not true, but I'm certainly not in a position to judge myself.

This is another pretty good summary article: UC scientist says ethanol uses more energy than it makes A lot of fossil fuels go into producing the gas substitute

Maybe I'm misunderstanding... does E85 Ethanol = the Ethanol that is described above?
