TPO 22
The passage provides critics of the ethanol fuel and argues it is not a good replacement for gasoline. However, the lecturer thinks theses critics are unconvincing and directly rejected them in the following reasons.
First, the lecturer tells that the use of ethanol fuel won’t cause global warming. It’s true that the burning of ethanol fuel will release carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. However, in lecturer opinion, these fuels are produced by plants, and the during the growth of plants, they absorb carbon dioxide from the environment. Therefore, the lecturer thinks by growing more plants can help to ease global warming.
Second, the production of ethanol doesn’t cause the reduction of the available food amount for the animals. The part of the plant used to make these fuel is usually not being eaten by the animals. Therefore, the amount for plants for the other usage will not decrease as the reading passage mentions.
Last, the lecturer argues that with the development of technology, the ethanol fuel will be able to compete with gasoline on price. He agrees the support from government keeps ethanol’s price being low. However, he believes that ethanol has great potential to be more effective than nowadays. Furthermore, more people use ethanol fuel; more profits will generate. Thus, the price of ethanol fuel will be lower in the future. So the lecturer concludes that critic from the passage is wrong.
