Making Biodiesel and Bioethanol

            During our trip to the lab in Mercer's Law School we touched on what bioethanol and biodiesel were and the effects and benefits of using it. We learned that ethanol was an alcohol product that could be produced from switch grass and it can even be produced from corn through the process of fermentation. Biodiesel is a renewable fuel derived from oils such as vegetable oils. Both biofuels have proven to be better for the environment than petroleum based gasoline. The problem with using biofuels as with implementing some other techniques to help keep our planet safe is that buying cars that take these certain fuels are really expensive so most people will stick to the norm.
