let's not forget the by product of hemp farming that was intentionally
STOPPED in it's tracks because of the paper industry moguls who had great influence
in Hollywood (california) which have the perfect seeds containing a diesel oil substitute
that's much better than used fry oils.

The FACTS were distorted / reported by a dishonest president who had to RESIGN (or else be impeached)
and have never been corrected.
This is the equivalent of throwing someone in Prison for a MURDER they never committed
and leaving them there to rot.

Every time i'd hear about Switch grass from good ol George Bush
i'd cringe at the thought....

as ALGAE can produce more fuel than FRACKING in less time.
and SOLAR panels placed out on the salt flats don't make pollution.

Interesting enough, electric rates are soaring because of solar energy. Traditional power plants need to put out a certain amount to be economically feasible. Solar energy is cutting into that so prices are rising. I'm all for alternative energy supplies and have been looking at solar panels from my house for a while. It's never cheap to be green

the infrastructure for electrical fuel stations isn't in place (obviously)


what's needed and has just been invented are rechargeable car batteries
that take about an hour costs like $3.00 to recharge

we are years away.... from ... hydrogen squeezed thru graphene filters
with so infinitesimally small holes in sheets 100 times thinner than a human hair ...

can filter saltwater into fresh water just as easy

They just put in a charging station in the park and ride at the base of the sagamore bridge, behind the dunks.

I think the more significant reason is the shut down of about 150 coal plants since 2010. As Obama himself stated "electricity rates will skyrocket". Solar energy generates only about .3% of electricity used in the country.

I blame Obama for cheap gas ..

Perhaps not. But they don't produce a meaningful amount of electricity, either.

Contrary to what you hear on MSNBC, even conservatives are interested in clean air and clean water. We just want to be realistic about our approach, not responding to the lies of a fat turd like Al Gore, who amazingly lives in a way that spits in th eface of everything he claims to believe. So he and the rest of the swells can live in luxury, and the rest of us are supposed to live in mud huts and walk to work?
