American Coalition of Ethanol responds to California’s gas car ban

California is aiming to halt the sales of new gas-powered cars by the year 2035 to transition to electric vehicles. The executive order, signed by Gov. Gavin Newsom, is creating concern for the nation’s biofuel sector.

Brian Jennings, the CEO of the American Coalition of Ethanol, spoke with RFD-TV News on the executive order and value of the combustible engine.

“Instead of putting a target on the back of internal combustion engines, what we would prefer the governor of California would do is focus on ways to power those engines with cleaner fuel, and that is where ethanol, of course, plays a pivotal role,” he said. “We need to push for higher blends of ethanol in California.”

Journey into lives of two hard-working farm families to see the risks, rewards, and funny shenanigans that take place every day. From cat-fishing and watermelon smashing and pig chasing and go-cart racing—there is never a dull moment on these family farms. We’ll also get a modern look at the newest cutting-edge farming techniques that are revolutionizing the industry and providing a greener and more sustainable way to grow.
RFD-TV has partnered with a handful of agricultural social media influencers whom we have dubbed The New Crop. These folks have taken to the internet to tell their stories and to raise awareness of where our food comes from and all that goes into feeding the world population.
The goal of “Where the Food Comes From” is as simple as its name implies — host Chip Carter takes you along on the journey of where our food comes from — and we don’t just mean to the supermarket (though that’s part of the big picture!). But beyond where it comes from, how it gets there, and all the links in the chain that make that happen.
