Corn fields have already killed biodiversity. Get rid of the ethanol mandate, replace gas cars with electric, replace corn fields with solar fields with an understory of native plants. The electrified car fleet will use no fossil fuels and about a third of the generated electricity. https://pv-magazine-usa.com/2025/04/25/ethanol-corn-uses-farmland-area-the-size-of-new-york-could-solar-do-it-better/ https://pv-magazine-usa.com/2025/04/25/ethanol-corn-uses-far... > U.S. corn growth for fuel – not food occupies 29.7 million acres. A study from Cornell University finds that corn grown for ethanol fuel requires 31 times as much land as solar per unit of energy. > Moreover, the researchers found that if 46% of the land currently used to farm corn for ethanol was converted to solar, the projects would generate enough electricity for the United States to decarbonize its electricity system by its 2050 goal.
