“Sake”, the traditional rice wine and also the national drink of the Japanese, sounds like it could be used as an alternative or replacement for gasoline, to power your vehicles. Currently, this is still at the pretty early stage, which is a pilot project being carried out in the town of Shinanomachi, to produce a cheap ethanol brew from rice, which is giving hopes to cars in Japan to run on this kind of biofuel in the near future. Biofuel is definitely in high need in Japan, as Japan is the world’s second largest gasoline consumer after the United States.
