Indian association wants UP to boost use of ethanol in public transport

In India, the ASSOCHAM industry association has asked the chief minister of Uttar Pradesh to push for use of ethanol in all public transport buses in the state in an effort to reduce pollution, especially in cities. By upgrading the quality of public transport, it would reduce people’s desire to use private transport and therefore reduce emissions even more. With UP producing the most ethanol of any state nationally, the association sees using ethanol as an opportunity to better the local environment.
