I don’t think it will ever be enough to make a dent in the oil or coal business

“public support”? If that means tax dollars, the answer is no

When Fuel is required to be made from whiskey byproducts, only drunks will be able to drive.

[Art.] A start-up company in Scotland is working to capitalize on the tons of waste produced by one of the country’s most valued industries and turn the dregs of whisky-making into fuel....

But what about the cows? They used to like to get drunk eating that mash.

Reminds me of “Big Daddy” Don Garlits’ quote, “Gasoline is for washing parts, alcohol is for drinking and nitro-methane is for racing!”

Biodiesel is pretty dang awesome* and that could, technically, be called a greenfuel scheme.
(* Granted, this is because the Diesel compression-ignition engine is both more efficient and more robust than a gasoline spark-ignition.)

Forget that, we need to figure out how to turn waste from fuel making into whiskey!

I think this is a good idea.

I don’t like it when they use waste to make whiskey.
