Ethanol: The Biomass Fuel Hero

Once upon a time, there was a little town where all the cars ran on biomass fuel. But one day, a wicked pollutant came and made the air dirty. The townspeople didn't know what to do until a clever scientist named Ethanol stepped in.

Ethanol had an idea to make a special kind of biomass fuel that would not pollute the air. He used a process called fermentation to turn plants into a clean-burning fuel.

The cars in the town were so happy because they could run smoothly again. And best of all, Ethanol made such a strong bond with the townspeople that they named the new fuel after him.

But as time went on, people started exploring alternative fuels like hydrogen. Ethanol wasn't upset though, he was just grateful for the time he spent helping the town and knew that one day someone else would come up with an even better solution.

And from that day on, the little town became known as the birthplace of clean energy and a shining example for the rest of the world to follow.
