Biofuels

Biofuels made from plants grown on American prairies and farms are a renewable, cleaner-burning alternative to gasoline and far cleaner than fuels derived from dirty coal. Together with efficiency, biofuels can significantly reduce America's dependence on oil, while also creating jobs and opportunities for our nation's farmers. Coal-based fuels, on the other hand, could double the emissions of greenhouses gases that cause global warming. America should embrace clean, renewable fuels that perform better than gasoline.
