Bioethanol is a type of biofuel produced using plants such as sugarcane and corn
Renewable source of energy since sugarcane and corn can be grown and replaced within a short period of time
More environmentally sustainable
Combustion of bioethanol releases CO2 into the atmosphere. CO2 traps heat leading to global warming
CO2 absorbed by plants which are grown as feedstock for production of bioethanol, offsets CO2 released, reduce environmental impact
Process may still require fossil fuels and generate CO2
