Bloomberg heads to Iowa to promote biofuels ahead of potential presidential bid

December 6, 2018 |

In Iowa, the New York Post reports that the former New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg was touring the state as part of a potential plan to launch a presidential bid as a Democrat. Bloomberg had previously criticized the use of corn for ethanol as bad energy policy but has since changed his tune, saying that there is a role for both biodiesel and corn-based ethanol, the latter of which he said was carbon neutral. He emphasized the need for policy to be science-driven rather than reject science as has been the trend in the current White House.
