The Auto Channel's Marc Rauch to Present THE FACTS ABOUT ETHANOL at Australian National Biofuels Symposium Monday August 22,2016

TACH co-founder to deliver feature-length exposé to help stimulate the Australian biofuel industry

AUTO CENTRAL - August 20, 2016: With support from Australia's Queensland Government, the Biofuels Association of Australia (BAA) is proud to present the National Biofuels Symposium 2016 in Brisbane on August 22nd and 23rd.

The worldwide biofuels sector is on a cusp of fantastic growth, and no where is the potential greater than in Australia, particularly following major policy changes in Queensland and New South Wales, along with the release of a detailed plan for its bioenergy sector.

These developments make this conference, to be held at Brisbane’s premier conference centre, a landmark gathering as the industry develops rapidly. About 300 people are expected to attend the event with a rare mix of speakers, including international experts.

Marc J. Rauch, The Auto Cannel

Among the international guest speakers is Marc J. Rauch, executive vice president of The Auto Channel. Marc is an outspoken advocate of all biofuels and alternative energy. His numerous published reports and media appearances have taken on the oil industry's highest paid and most ferocious anti-alternative hit men. Marc's blend of historical facts, humor, incisive industry analysis, and common sense reasoning has leveled all opponents. He has been a frequent participating speaker at industry and media events. Recently, Marc travelled to Taiwan to speak at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum on behalf of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, and he presented testimony for the second time before a Congressional debriefing on ethanol in Washington, DC.

“It has been a David and Goliath battle against Big Oil, but the good guys keep gaining ground and acceptance because we have the ultimate indomitable weapon on our side: truth," said Marc. He then added, "Ethanol is good for car engines, good for the environment, good for the economy, and good for our health. Australia, because of it's available land, climate, growing population, lack of domestic crude oil resources and complete dependence upon foreign oil is a perfect place to develop a huge domestic ethanol industry. Other than the puerile myths and ignorant rumors about ethanol there is no reason why Australia and New Zealand shouldn't be model societies for biofuel production and use. Their success will help all nations chained to petroleum oil fuels understand how they too can break free. This is the message I intend to share with the conference attendees."

Other featured speakers and notable guests to appear at the symposium include:

• Anna Palaszczuk, Premier of Queensland
• Dr. Gerard J Ostheimer, Global Lead for the United Nations SE4ALL Program
• Robert Wood, Head of Sustainability, Virgin Australia
