Clark attends WH jobs summit

The General said, - ethanol is the model for all successful renewable energy industries: driven by technological innovation and with enormous potential for growth and job creation. Clark reiterated, - ethanol is the only viable renewable, sustainable fuel we have in this country that is an alternative to gasoline refined from imported oil. It is being used today. And we can make it cleaner and greener every year – while creating jobs right here that can’t be outsourced.
Growth Energy has asked EPA to create jobs by approving a higher ethanol blend wall – making it possible for blenders to include up to 15 percent of ethanol in every gallon of gasoline. By raising the blend wall to E15, Growth Energy says, the ethanol industry could create 136-thousand new jobs and inject more than 24.4-billion dollars a year into the American economy.
