The Only Thing Worse Than Fossil Fuel Are Some Alternatives

By: GARKO

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, 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 cold weather, more gasoline needs to be added to the mixture to ensure the fuel works properly, so E85 is at least 70% ethanol.
The fact that E85 needs 15-30% gasoline in the mixture is not the major problem, that factor is really not such a big deal. If everyone was using E85 and the use of gasoline got cut by 70% that would be a tremendous advantage. .
The real problems with Ethanol follow… The shift to biofuels is causing a global food shortage beyond the usual. The problems are rather fascinating Corn is the primary food base from which ethanol is derived. Since corn is grown and harvested by farmers, there is a finite amount of land that can be used to produce corn. The demand for the corn crop has grown substantially due to the push for biofuels while the supply has struggled to keep up. Corn is more profitable to grow now due to the increased demand, so those in agriculture are growing more corn at the sacrifice of wheat and soy. Instead of a shortage in one staple crop, corn, there is now a shortage in two additional food staples: wheat and soy. This brings on three new sets of problems: lack of land on which to grow corn and other staples, soaring food prices and, yes, potential starvation of the poor.
Don’t think that this is just affecting poor people though. If you eat food then it affects YOU. Just as higher oil prices have caused the price of goods to increase due to higher transportation costs, what corn gets on the market has shot up unprecedentedly in the last few months - around 30% already this year – all because of the demand for biofuels. What is odd about all this is that the environmentalists, who are politically situated on the far left for the most part, have always been chastised as “bleeding hearts” because of their desire to help all the underprivileged at the expense of hard working middle class people and also the wealthy, like modern day Robin Hood.s Get ready to be gouged even more as Hatians are eating mud cookies because they can't afford corn and residents of Kenya are rioting over food.
While the price of food continues to skyrocket which makes it even harder for the poor people of the world to get any decent nutrition, the government will inevitably suck more out of our paychecks while anyone who complains about it will be hit as “unsensitive and selfish” . If I was inclined towards conspiracy theories I would think that perhaps this was all being done on purpose.
By 2030, the world population is projected to increase to such a degree that we would need to increase food production 50% between now and then just to keep up. In 70 years based on current projections, it would need to double. But the rush to biofuels - allegedly good for the environment - translates in reality to a reapportionment of farm land to growing food for energy purposes.
The rise in demand has been reflected by the substantial rise in the prices of basic crops, including wheat, over the past two years.
Biofuels have been heralded as a handling for lowering the toxic fuel emissions pumped out by fossil fuels but recent investigations have been skeptical of how much benefit that they might have when all aspects, for instance the use of pesticides and such on the crops, arefactored into the equation. Critics have been angered by the loss of tropical rainforests, which have been cleared to allow farmers to grow biofuel crops.
Laying waste to forest landDeforestation has been found to cause roughly 18 percent of world greenhouse gas emissions and many environmentalists view the idea of eliminating forest land in order to grow crops for biofuel to be ill considered.
There are basically three alternatives to us. One is to boycott ethanol. Another is to expose global warming as the hoax that it is and there is great progress on this front, even today. And the other is something else entirely.
So here is the real solution!
WATER4GAS is offering information at a low price which individuals can use in their garage or wherever to put together a small gizmo which instills hydrogen into the gas/air mixture that their car runs on.
What this does is make bite sized particles out of the particles that the system burns as fuel. Therefore it gets to use considerably more of it.
With WATER4GAS you can minimumly expect to improve your fuel economy by thirty to fifty percent or even more. Those particles must have been pretty darn big in some engines before. But with WATER4GAS they are made consumable so you can improve your fuel economy.
It also helps reduce emissions significantly.
This package of info has been purchased by over NINE THOUSAND people already and happy members number about 99%! So how about you?
