Mexico NGOs celebrate the ban of E10
In March 2021, El Poder del Consumidor (The Power of the Consumer), an NGO that protects consumer rights in Mexico, and the Citizens Air Quality Observatory (OCCA) praised the decision of the Commission on Energy Regulation (CRE) to allow ethanol blending in gasoline only up to 5.8% instead of 10% and to ban the use of ethanol in three major metropolitan zones (Mexico City, Guadalajara, and Monterrey) due to air pollution.
