National and state level ethanol promotions launch this week, with the debut of a campaign to promote ethanol use in North Dakota, backed by the American Lung Association and the North Dakota Ethanol Producers Association. Nationally, the The Renewable Fuels Association will launch two commercials filmed in Texas on the benefits of ethanol fuel. In the ad “Places,” Hereford Texas, the “beef capital of the world”, is introduced as “the ethanol capital of Texas”. The RFA ads can be viewed here.
