Gas Junkie - Gasoline Prices Questions

Question: Do you think there is a better solution to fossil fuel for cars?........but?

( Back )

Answer #1:

I think we should use hydrogen instead of sugarcane.

Answer #2:

There are MANY better proven choices out there, Even the EV 1 was great, Tech has increased just like cell phones, but the few that control America and elsewhere call the shots.

If something comes out the oil comp buy the right, ie BP did this years ago, When the money isn't good enough ( drilling to deep) they will slowly let some out. for now they are buying up water companies, Exxon sold all of it'''s gas station and bought the new liquid gold "WATER"
Because Americans will bitch and moan and do nothing they will charge you top dollar for it, It's already being dome. min use charge is set in most towns.
The average family will be crushed, to keep them down because they have no more money to spend.
Russia is laughing with China, how could they do this to themselves...... GREED! Always gets ya.

Sorry for the children, but if they know nothing else they should survive, unless MS13 kills them.
It's so sad that men lost lives for America WWII..... but it gave them 40 years of a chance.

Answer #3:

There are no hidden technologies. There are unused technologies.

The water engines are a hoax, plain and simple. Some devices can extend the range of gas cars by nearly 50%, but car companies won't adopt them because they don't want to pay the licensing fees to install the equipment on millions of cars. Brazil has several fuel choices, as does Australia.

Oil is inherently an unstable commodity. The prices will go up and down based on environment issues and speculators.

Answer #4:

There was a brilliant engine invented by a fellow in Western Australia when I was a kid - some 40 odd years ago. It was reported that he was paid around 3 million bucks then met with a fatal accident. Can't for the life of me think of his name at the moment but will and will come back when do. A perpetual type motion engine that actually worked - and extremely well.
There undoubtedly have been many inventions - expecially in the last decade - but individuals could never afford to produce these machines. The oil companies either buy them off or destroy them in some other way. They cannot afford to lose their huge profits. Guaranteed that if tomorrow the world learned that there would be no more fossil fuel/oil/gas by the end of the following month, all of a sudden there would be one or two alternatives ready for manufacturing (as in cars etc.). And not the best options - just those that would continue to dominate and make the most money for these companies.
Think about this - just a couple of hundrred or so years ago we had steam trains. Their fuel was wood, later coal. Do you really believe that something as simple as a uranium type set-up (which is a modern version of the old steam train when it comes to producing power without the wood/coal) has not already been invented - tiny versions of power plants which could power vehicles etc. - comparison of sorts - a big gas cylinder at your servo that refills your bbq cylinders as compared to a Bic cigarette lighter - but on much exagerated/minimized size scales. Lots of different things. Think about them all. You will be astounded at what you and your friends can come up with!

Answer #5:

I heard that vegetable oil can be a substitute, Corn oil is a way,etc. I've heard of the sugarcane fuel but I heard that it would be used on the biggest jet *Forgot the name

Answer #6:

Fossil fuels are still the best. As long as we do the best that we can to keep the exhaust clean. Which means only producing safe carbon dioxide, CO2.We just need to drill more wells in the US and get off of foreign oil.
Fuel made from food is a stupid idea when there are people starving in the world.

Answer #7:

There is no fuel from water.
The Brazilian invention is cane alcohol, and most of Brazil's transport runs on it. It is not as efficient a fuel as gasoline, but Brazil has a lot of sugar-cane growing area. It is a renewable fuel. Ethanol production from corn in temperate countries is nowhere near as efficient and puts fuel and food in direct competition for cropland. Soy diesel also needs a lot of good land. With the most optimistic estimates of production from crop waste or sawgrass, there isn't enough land to replace present fossil fuel use with biofuel
For short-haul vehicles, the most efficient solution is electric. If the vehicle needs range, nothing is going to beat fossil fuel in the near future - it packages a lot of energy in a small, easily-transferred volume and we've solved most of the safety problems. Hybrids are the most efficient use of that fuel for passenger vehicles.

Answer #8:

Shtt yeah there's better choices, and nobody's keeping them hidden. They're not hidden, they're right there and they would work.

There is exactly one reason we still use fossil fuel today, no more, no less: Higher profit margin.

Not that there isn't good money to be made with alternatives, there is, just not as much.

Left up the giant, multinational, non thinking, non feeling corporations, they'd ruin everyone's lives to save a single dollar. That's how powerful the laws of economics are. That's why the free market needs some type of guidance and regulation.
