This is the movie that will change your attitude about fuel forever.
PUMP is an inspiring, eye-opening documentary that tells the story of America’s addiction to oil, from Standard Oil’s illegal tactics to the monopoly oil companies enjoy today. The film explains clearly and simply how we can end this monopoly — and finally win choice at the pump.
In Brazil the “feedstock” of choice to make ethanol is sugarcane, which is plentiful and doesn’t displace crops used for food. Now, across the country, all fueling stations sell ethanol as well as traditional gasoline, “which is very good for the consumer,” says Dr. Marcos Jank, a professor of economics at the University of Sao Paulo. Not only is ethanol cheaper than gasoline, it’s better for the environment, and it has a higher octane. The fueling station of the future would sell multiple fuels, not just gasoline.
