Issue from Exploratory Paper

1. The three perspectives from my exploratory paper on E85 ethanol fuel vary. The first one is that E85 is bad for the environment overall and is not energy efficient. The second argument is that E85 is not produced effectively right now in the United States, but there is hope for it. The third argument is that E85 is very good for the environment and can help reduce our dependency on foreign oil. The second argument is dominant because it has great promise. Even though production in America isn't efficient today, there are many possibilities to help improve it.

2. I believe that the second perspective should be the dominant one because it has lots of possibilities to become a very efficient and cost-effective alternative fuel.

3. The perspective cannot be enforced as a policy but more as a proposal as to what can be done to help make the process better.
