"If you believe that today’s 'climate change' is caused by too much carbon, you have been fooled. We live on a spinning planet that rotates around a much bigger sun along with other planets and heavenly bodies rotating around the sun that all create gravitational pull on one another while our galaxy rotates and travels through the universe. Considering all of that, yes our climate will change, and it’s totally normal!"

If you own a flex-fuel car and have access to E85 fuel, it is currently selling for more than a dollar/gallon less than the cheapest gasoline mix, which more than makes up for its lower MPG. In the last week, I have purchased E85 in Sacramento for $3.199 in Sacramento and $2.959 in El Cajon.
Ethanol is not a low carbon fuel. It is effectively made from natural gas:

Use natural gas to make fertilizer. Use fertilizer to grow crops. Ferment the crops into ethanol.

It's cheaper because it is subsidized, not because it is any more efficient.
