Media Release
Jun. 26, 2006

 

New sources of ethanol are required to meet the U.S. demand for energy - Corn is not the answer says Chevron CEO. He continues "Fifteen percent of the corn crop today goes into fuel, but it's only 2 percent of the fuel. Do the math on how practical that is for the long term. You''ve got to go to some other means of making ethanol, from something that's a waste product. That's where we''ve got to go for the long term."
