Gas going Green?

The U.S has given a $650 million dollar loan to four different companies. The loan is to aid the companies in producing biofuels from waste. It is a known fact that alot of money goes into to fuel industry. It is also a fact that the current mix of gasoline and ethanol is harmful to our environment. I appreciate the U.S stepping in and taking a legitimate step to finding more sufficient and eco-friendly fuel.
This subject interest me because I drive a Ford Explorer, and gas mileage is very important to me. Being that my vechicle is going to have to last me for awhile, I am highly concerned with gas prices and fuel quality. If making gas out of orange peels, peanut oil, or trash will lower gas prices and save the economy then I'm in.
I hope that these biofuel companies make drastic changes and fast. My gas guzzler will not last forever. I may have to invest in an electric vehicle. Gas going green will definitely make the environment a better place for all of us.
