Survey: Overwhelming Support for Renewable Fuel Options

Nine in 10 U.S. adults agree that the U.S. should pursue renewable energy sources, according to a Harris Interactive Poll.

The poll, commissioned by the Clean Fuels Development Coalition, concludes that 72 percent of adults believe that higher oil prices have had a substantial impact on the rising cost of food in recent months, compared to only 35 percent who believe ethanol production has had a significant impact on rising food prices.

Other results indicate that 78 percent believe usage of ethanol would lessen the country’s dependence on foreign oil.
