There's a reason G.G. is a Gov. Charlie Crist fan, he understands the meaning of green. The Florida Govenor's on a trade mission in Brazil this week. On Monday, he announced two new initiatives to make alternative energies (vs. fossil fuels) more accessible in Florida:
1. The capital city (that's Tallahassee) is getting a $182 million garbage-to-electricity plant. This will convert trash into ethanol and will reduce waste sent to landfills.
2. A pledge to encourage Congress to end the import tax on Brazilian Ethanol. While G.G. believes in buying American first, if the import tax was removed, it would be cheaper to import it from Brazil through Port Everglades vs. trucking it in from the Midwest.
