The M4 an ecologic fuel from Panama, what´s your opinion?

Question

The fuel M4 this fact-based "Ethanol" in combination with a patented formula called M4. Porfirio Ellis, manager of Fuel M4, has already conducted successful tests in some taxis and includes laboratory tests carried out by the English Intertek Caleb Brett

Is a fuel whose ingredients are organic: 87% ethanol, and 13% of an already patented formula itself at the international level, known as M4. This combination gives rise to a fuel ecological, economic, and adapted to the vehicle, which increases efficiency and performance of your car.

The novel, is that in any case can be used in any vehicle with a gasoline engine. So it does not require modifications to the engine and its composition would allow it to be cheaper than gasoline today. Another added value is the reduction in emissions, helping the environment.

Answer 1

Ethanol might be cleaner than gasoline, but don't you think that it is a little odd that as ethanol use becomes widespread, food prices seem to soar? A fuel that is 87% ethanol could have disastrous consequences for poorer countries. Hydrogen/ electric is the future.

Answer 2

Probably just another scam (if it is advertised as organic it is almost guaranteed to be a scam).

Synthetic hydrocarbons are probably the best solution to our current problems with hydrogen also being a possibility, ethanol is only making things worse (increasing fuel prices and producing more global warming than just getting oil out of the ground).
