Gas Is Going Up and Nobody Seems To Notice

Has anyone, besides me, noticed that gas prices are creeping back up again? Just three weeks ago I was paying $2.18 per gallon, locally. Today it’s up to $2.45 for regular. While we’re at it, I seem to remember that mid-grade was always $.10 more than regular and premium $.10 more that mid-grade. Not anymore! Now they are $.12 and $.14 more, respectively.

Anyway, the reason I’m pointing this out,  is that all the talk about domestic drilling seems to have gone away. When we were over $4.00 a gallon, everybody was talking about ways of making us less dependent on foreign oil.  Then the economy tanked and the price of oil dropped because people couldn’t afford it, and the price of gas plummeted. So we stopped talking about drilling at home, new nuclear plants, bio-fuels and all that other stuff.

So, while we’ve been busy getting mad about the economy, health-care, taxes, job loss and a multitude of other problems, the price of gas has started to rise yet again. We are good at  doing that and I think our government counts on our lack of focus. They do it because they talk big about how they are going to solve a particular problem before doing the research to verify it can be done. When they realize that their plan sucks, they have to make sure that they get us to focus on something new.

Frankly it will probably take years to get to the point where we can import a lot less oil, but we need to keep the ideas afloat. We have to develop ways to reduce our dependence on foreign governments, especially those that don’t like us. So take a couple of minutes and let your representatives know that you are still concerned about the price of gas and where it may be headed.

Bio-Diesel – Go Green and Clean

You can’t turn on the TV or radio (do people still listen to that) without hearing something about the environment. Whether it’s the price of gas, the cost of a barrel of oil, alternative energy, electric cars or carbon dioxide emissions, you will hear something about it daily. There is even a way to get water to supplement the gas and save energy in the process.

One popular term you hear often is Bio-diesel Fuel. Bio-diesel fuel can be made from a lot of the stuff that we would normally throw away at the end of the day anyway. Things like vegetable oil and recycled restaurant grease as well as animal fats. Let’s face it with all the restaurants, fast food and otherwise, that we have in the United States, we have plenty of left over restaurant grease and vegetable oil. It can also be produced from soybeans which can be regrown over and over to produce the required quantities.

People like it because it not only burns much cleaner that petroleum based products, but it can also help reduce our dependence on foreign oil. Which is something else that is being pounded into our heads day after day.

If the United States were to focus more on bio-diesel fuel it could create an estimated 36,100 job in several areas of the economy as well as keeping about $13 billion in America that is now spent overseas.

It works by combining 20% bio-diesel fuel with 80% petroleum based diesel that can be used in current diesel engines without modification. However, it can also be used in pure 100% bio-diesel, but in most cases that will require some type of engine modification. Many car manufacturers think that the bio-diesel alternative is a good one. For one thing it produces less wear and tear on the vehicles engine which will help extend the life of the engine.

We have the resources in the U.S. to handle the increase in production and incentives are available to companies willing to participate. Many states have legislation in place which would make it economically feasible to produce the needed alternative.

Water to Gas

Oh yeah!! It can be done. There are many advantages to converting your car to run on water. The most obvious is the savings you will realize, in time. Yes, “in time”.  Obviously, it will cost money to convert a vehicle to run on water, so it will also take some time to realize a true savings.

Just to make sure we are clear, your car will still need some gasoline. The water conversion process is a supplement that makes it 40-60% more fuel efficient to run your vehicle, while lowering emissions.

However, as with most things there are disadvantages as well as advantages. First of all, it is not possible to convert some car models. Some articles indicate that it is possible 99.9% of the time but many experts disagree. Second, depending on your knowledge of car mechanics it may take a couple of hours or a couple of days. Of course you could always find a mechanic in your area who knows how to do it. Or can you??

As far as advantages go, the obvious one is the gas savings. In addition, you may be eligible for a tax rebate of up to $2,000 from the IRS, if you have the conversion done. It is safe, legal and in most cases will not affect the warranty on your vehicle.

Now you have to decide if you want to tinker with your brand new car to save some money. Well fortunately you can find all of the information you need to make that decision right at my Water to Gas site. So take some time and do the research. Come back as often as you have to. Tell your friends about it and let them see for themselves.

Don’t wait too long, gas isn’t getting any cheaper. Do it now!!
