Scientists have figured out how to produce a fuel that is cheap AND clean

Methanol was traditionally manufactured by converting methane into hydrogen and carbon monoxide at high temperatures, and then undergoing a second highly pressurized process to reassemble the chemicals in a different order. However, […]
