Why Ethanol Would Lead To Environmental Disaster
As the myth around global warming begins to unravel and Operation Desperation sets in, it's important for the public to know why biofuels aren't the answer to solving global warming. For those that don't know, biofuels are alternative energy sources derived from living matter, as opposed to fossil fuels, such as oil, which are derived from nonliving matter. The most prevalent variety of biofuel is Ethanol made from corn and combined with gasoline into something called E85, which means it's 15% gasoline and 85% ethanol. But the actual ratio is subject to change due to the outside temperatrue and it might be better named E70-85. During the Winter months you need more gasoline in the mixture to ensure the fuel works properly, so E85 is at least 70% ethanol.
Why Ethanol Equals Catastrophe
As the myth around global warming begins to unravel and Operation Desperation sets in, it's important for the public to know why biofuels aren't the answer to solving global warming. For those that don't know, biofuels are alternative energy sources derived from living matter, as opposed to fossil fuels, such as oil, which are derived from nonliving matter. The most common biofuel is a blend of gasoline called E85, and this is a mixture in a ratio of 15:85 gasoline:ethanol. However, the gasoline and ethanol content changes depending on the season. During the Winter months you need more gasoline in the mixture to ensure the fuel works properly, so E85 is at least 70% ethanol.
How To Answer The Need For Alternative Fuels Without Worsening The Problem
The generation of energy sources beyond those derived from fossil fuels has attracted increasing attention and gone more mainstream in recent years. This is not a movement confined to any particular geographical zones, it is actually growing rapidly in a global trend. What has brought about this significant change?
Alternative Energy Sources – With Every Wish There Comes A Curse
More and more people are considering the alternatives to fossil fuel derived energy sources every day. This is not a geocentric phenomenon, it is actually growing rapidly in a global trend. What has brought about this significant change?

Hybrid Tech Advancing Into The Truck And SUV Market
Because the the technology is not quite up to snuff for an entirely electric run vehicle, car makers have devised the hybrid cars, a combination and integration of the conventional gasoline powered cars and the technology on electric cars that we have attained so far
Is An Electric Hybrid Car Right For You?
Ever since the automobile of the gas-powered cars were introduced to the market in 1880s, car makers from around the world have been constantly aiming to introduce revolutionary and new modifications of cars.
A Better World Brought To You By Water4Gas
WATER4GAS is providing information at a low price which folks can use at home to put together a small gizmo which infuses hydrogen into the gas/air mixture that their automobile runs on.
Advantages of Hybrid Automobiles
Gasoline prices are rising steadily. That is because conflicts in the Middle East never falter to affect the pricing of the volatile oil commodity in the world market.
Comparison of Some Hybrid Automobiles
To buy or not to buy hybrid automobiles. That no longer is the question. If Mr. Jim Press, president of Toyota Motor Sales USA is to be believed, everything will be a hybrid, eventually. Mr Press ays that it can be any of several varieties of hybrids including gas, diesel, electric, fuel cell and others. . Hmmmm. Looks like the world is going to be ruled by hybrids, interesting.
Brief Comparison of Hybrid Vehicles
The demand and availability for hybrid cars has been growing steadily over the years because of the increasing concerns of motorists regarding the price increases of gas. Major automobile manufacturers have come up with their respective versions of hybrid vehicles, and consumers have lots of considerations when purchasing these cars. Of course, price ranks among the most important of those concerns
The Messiah Is Here And IT Is Hydrogen!
Hydrogen, which has, as its source, simple tap water, might very well end up being the forever fuel of tomorrow, it could be the only needed power source for homes, industry, and automobiles.
Diesel Not Only Unhealthy But Can Cause Brain Damage
Diesel causes pollution and brain damage When you inhale diesel fumes it activates a stress response in the brain. This type of reaction could have harmful brain damage in the long term in people living in areas with high smog.
Atmospheric Pollutants, Diesel And Your Nervous System
Diesel in the environment has an undesired consequence When you inhale diesel fumes it activates a stress reaction in the brain. This response could have harmful long-term consequences for brain function for people that are located.
How Will Electric Hybrids Impact The Power Grid?
The answer depends on when people decide to recharge their automobiles, essentially. That is the wildcard. A new study from the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) indicates a move to plug-ins might necessitate a large number of new resources for more power or it might be a wash – it all depends on when the majority of the people are going to recharge their cars.
Will The Power Grids Stand Up To Additional Demand From Electric Hybrid Automobiles?
It is dependent upon when people are going to recharge their vehicles, essentially. That is the wildcard. Recent research from the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) indicates a switch over to plug-ins might require a bunch of new resources for more power or maybe none at all – the pivotal factor is when most people will decide to recharge their cars.
How Much Will Electric Hybrid Plug-In Vehicles Influence The Power Grid?
It is dependent upon what time of day people are going to recharge their cars, basically. That is the pivotal factor. Recent research from the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) says that a switch over to plug-ins could require a large number of new resources for more power or maybe none at all – it all depends on when the majority of the people will decide to recharge their cars.
Improving The Environment Through Alternative Vehicles
Taking into consideration the fact that most of the resources available across the globe are limited and that the consumption of those energy sources is incredibly high, it is that much more urgent for researchers to start discovering more and more automobiles which operate on 'alternative fuel'. Gas prices are growing more rapidlyever in history. If this pattern continues, a day will arrive when we would be left with no oil in the world.
Say Goodbye To The Fossil Fuel Age And Welcome In The Hydrogen Age
Hydrogen is broadly seen by in the environmental movement, and also, by many large companies, as atotal solution to smog, climate change and shrinking petroleum supplies. (Of course, the whole “peak oil” scare is just that… a scare with no substance. There are no diminishing petroleum supplies and the whole “peak oil” thing is a hoax) Even Bush has spoken glowingly about the future of hydrogen. In his 2003 State of the Union Address he rhapsodized, "The first vehicle driven by a child born today could be fueled by hydrogen and pollution free."
Using Water for Gas – A Brief History
There was a Swiss inventor named Isaac de Rivas 200 years ago and, was the first to create a car powered by an internal combustion engine. That was an amazing feat in and of itself, but what do you think that he used as fuel since gasoline wasn't invented for another seventy years? Amazingly, the very firstcar ran on extracting HYDROGEN from WATER!
Biofuel Stinks... Literally
A week or so ago, a deputy division director of environmental quality for the Missouri Natural Resources Dept, informed us that she was warned almost a year ago by colleagues in other states that biodiesel producers were illegally disposing of glycerin, the main emissions of biodiesel processing, contaminated with methanol, another disposable byproduct which is categorized as environmentally toxic.
Biofuel Gets An F On Their Report Card
When people living at the Riverbend Farms subdivision saw that a yucky black, foul smelling gelatinous goo had started to appear at the Black Warrior River, which runs through their backyards, Mark Storey, a former petroleum plant worker, jumped into his boat to follow it upstream to discover where it was coming from.
Biofuel Blows!
Something derived from corn or soy couldn't possibly pose an environmental risk, could it? I mean, if we can eat it what harm could it be? . And according to the National Biodiesel Board a trade group, biodiesel is biodegradable, nontoxic, and is suitable for sensitive environments.
Biofuel “Cuts The Cheese”
A renewable fuel source promoted to reduce greenhouse-gas emissions might be adding more to global warming than fossil fuels according to recent discoveries and events
Biofuel Makes Fossil Fuel Look Clean
The main idea behind converting energy usage from gasoline to ethanol is for environmental cleanup and conservation. Much of the push to rapidly build and fund the alternative energy industry has been for this reason.
