Ethanol became mandatory in fuel in the United States with the implementation of the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) in 2005, which aimed to increase the use of renewable fuels. The RFS was expanded in 2007 with the Energy Independence and Security Act, setting targets for the incorporation of renewable fuels like ethanol into the fuel supply. These regulations have led to a significant increase in the blending of ethanol, primarily in the form of E10, which contains 10% ethanol.
What else can I help you with?
Why did the ethanol become green?
Ethanol and other alcohols were the original fuel of choice for automobiles. The growth of petroleum companies in the late 1800's influences a change to fossil fuel. The present labeling of ethanol as a "green" fuel is fairly recent as a branding effort. Most studies indicate that it has severe drawbacks as far as energy content and overall carbon footprint.

Is there any fuel additive that will reduce ethanol effects?
Yes, adding gasoline without ethanol will reduce the affects of ethanol by diluting it. You do not say which effects of ethanol you wish to reduce. What follows is true but sarcastic and not actually recommended. If you add almost anything non fuel to your fuel tank such as water it will reduce the effects of ethanol. Specifically it will reduce the effect of powering your engine.
