near-fossil-free rubber tires

Andrew Beckford, May 2023, page-11, MOTOR TREND, ' New Tire Made From Soybean Oil, Rice Husks, and Pine Resin,' reports on Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. R&D involving sustainable tire manufacture, which nearly takes petroleum completely out of the tire manufacturing process.
Seventeen sustainable ingredients are involved.
So lets stop burning petroleum as soon as possible so we can fill the Pacific with worn out tires, 'n I'll be able to make the drive from L.A. to Honolulu!
