I have ideas of buying an older VW bug or bus and converting it to CNG. The trick is finding the high pressure low volume compressor to put in your garage so you can store it on-board a vehicle efficiently. It's a project for a later date.

If they start using it as a major fuel and I have to pay tax on it I won't be nearly as enthusiastic though.
 
Its very very clean. It's cheap to get. We have enough of it here in the US to last for the next century.

Get off foreign oil, stop messing with middle east, stop having to fight stupid wars.

hundreds of billions of new tax revenues.

Infrastructure would nrabroad
be that hard to install.


People keep about how we need to get off foreign oil. We could be off of middle east oil in a few years, and completely energy self-sufficent in 5 years.

With all of the TRILLIONS of dollars we don't send overseas, we could invest in renewable energy and slowly ween ourselves off fossil fuels all together.

Just thought you'd all like to know.
 
"We have enough of it here in the US to last for the next century."

Is that based off of our current usage, or is that taking into account the huge increase in usage that would occur if we could somehow eliminate all foreign oil and switch to using NG (all cars, ships, planes, etc...)?
 
The people that run this country (corporations) wont let that happen.

But hey, free market & capitalism.. fuck ya!
 
Hey, guess which company is one of the leading natural gas suppliers and will end up getting big kickbacks with Obama's cap n trade bill?


BP
