Check it out, alternative fuels are now available in the DC area. The NEX gas station by the Pentagon us now carrying both biodiesel and E85 Ethanol. Prices are, as you might expect, a little higher than normal fuel, but if you want to be Green, go right for it.
Of course E85 may cost you 10 horsepower and could be a little less carbon friendly, there’s still something to be said for having the option, which has been lacking here in the Metro area.
Aside from the NEX, I understand that the Chevron on Georgetown is also carrying E85.

I live and work in the District of Columbia. I write at We Love DC, a blog I helped start, I work at Technolutionary, a company I helped start, and I’m happy doing both. I enjoy watching baseball, cooking, and gardening. I grow a mean pepper, keep a clean scorebook, and wash the dishes when I’m done. Read Why I Love DC.
