America's growing dependence on foreign sources of oil carries with it some very real consequences. Domestic renewable fuels like ethanol offer our nation a good first step in lessening that dependence and providing for a more secure future for generations to come. Just last year, the use of nearly five billion gallons of domestically-produced ethanol reduced oil imports by 206 million barrels. That is more oil than we are on pace to import this year from Iraq alone. Renewable fuels are not the silver bullet to all our energy and national security concerns - but they are a good place to start. Join us to learn how renewable fuels like ethanol can help make America more secure. |
