This is basically a enviromental-friendly replacement for gasoline, not an economic one. We won't be saving money, nor losing, because it costs around the same as it would to fill up your gas tank. |

Hmm... kill the planet or save the planet for the same price.
Rather have cleaner air. |

For those of you who weren`t around or driving during the '70`s all of this has happened before. The embargo caused developed nations to rethink their dependence on fossil fuels,the United States government responded to the new era of expensive energy by formulating an entirely new energy policy expressed in such legislation as the Energy Policy and Conservation Act of 1976, the Energy Conservation and Production Act of 1976, the Energy Reorganization Act of 1974, and the National Energy Act of 1978. Brazil went with
ethanol and never looked back. The real kick in the balls is they are using American cars/trucks along with VW,BMW,ect. People will jump in and say `but we don`t have the infrastructure to use more ethanol, but the fact is we do and with some work can have fuel stations with a ethanol tank. The insurance for a enthanol tank is pennies compared to a gas/diesel tank due to fact that if theres a leak it will not ruin the ground water. Ask anybody in Fla who runs a gas station how tough the laws are re. fuel tanks.
again from the links I posted.
* The U.S. sits on only 3 percent of known global oil reserves yet consumes 25 percent of the world's oil. Thus America cannot drill its way to energy independence.{USGS/American Petroleum Institute both somewhat agree to those numbers}
Fuel Economy
* The first fuel economy standards were passed in 1975 in response to the oil embargo--doubling the fuel economy of American vehicles within ten years and saving America nearly 3 million barrels of oil per day (or 14 percent of today's consumption.)
* The technology exists today to make all cars, trucks, and SUVs average 40 miles per gallon. Taking this step would save nearly 4 million barrels of oil per day.
There's a better way. Clearly we need greater energy independence, but we can't drill our way there. A responsible energy policy would cut our oil dependence by increasing fuel economy of cars, SUV, and other light trucks. |
