Just an awesome post olebrookmiss, thanks for sharing.

One of the highlights:

# Under current law, fuel blenders must use 7.5 billion gallons of renewable fuels in 2012.
# Under the President's proposal, the fuel standard will be set at 35 billion gallons of renewable and alternative fuels in 2017 (almost 5 times increase). This will displace 15 percent of projected annual gasoline use in 2017. The President's proposal will also increase the scope of the current Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS), expanding it to an Alternative Fuel Standard (AFS).

* The Alternative Fuel Standard will include sources such as corn ethanol, cellulosic ethanol, biodiesel, methanol, butanol, hydrogen, and alternative fuels.
