approximately 40% will be processed into ethanol to meet subsidized mandates in Americans’ fuel blends.

I suggest:

Put two nozzles at the ‘gas station’.

One with gasoline and
The other with ethanol.

I’ll bet the users pump some ethanol, take it home for consumption, and do not drive much more at all, thus decreasing ‘gasoline pollution’.

I buy strictly ethanol free fuel in southeast Idaho. The hygroscopic nature of ethanol draws water into the fuel. That water freezes into ice in the winter damaging fuel components (lines, pumps, filters). The ethanol is corrosive as well. In small engines, ethanol burns hotter causing damage to the valves. It has no place in a gasoline engine.
