Ethanol plants bring pollution

To the editor:There are several things that make this area a very attractive place to live: beautiful scenery, clean air and lots of fresh water. Why, then, would anyone allow ethanol plants to be built on Nash Road and ruin the whole of Cape Girardeau County plus Scott County? I am amazed and appalled that such is even being considered. The impact on the water supply alone is very frightening.

If you think the housing market around here is bad now, wait until the plants are up and running. Who would want to live in an area that smells awful and has a polluted water supply?

Please stop this insanity before it becomes a reality.
