There is no doubt that plastic has been getting some bad press recently, in fact it probably goes back around ten or twelve years when plastic was first named as an eco badguy. It’s been deemed an eco badguy with good reason, too. After all, plastic hangs around the planet for hundreds of years after initial use, and sadly, the plastic pile just keeps growing.

I just found a great poll question on The Green Motorist blog, which is listed below:
Which alternative fuel do you think will have the greatest impact on reducing emissions?
The answers to choose from are:
Solar
Electric
Hyrdogen
Natural Gas
BioFuels
Weigh in below, and speak your piece, on which alternative fuel you think will create the lowest emissions, and why?

In this world where the worsening oil prices are headlining the newspapers, the search for alternative fuel to help resolve the problem continues. Apparently, Greensynthetic, a carrier of the highest quality and eco-friendly Amsoil synthetic oil products in the world today.
So most would say it is similar to the biofuels that are continuously being developed in most regions today. But as far as tests and adhering towards the needs of most machi

Apparently, oil has become increasingly expensive and based on expert predictions, the current trends we experience today are only the tip of the iceberg. By 2008, we can expect them to rise all the more and perhaps see the last quarter as the only relieving site to which everything will stabilize.
Alternative fuel has been doing its part these days to provide people assistance. But apparently, there is still lack of trust and confidence on the

We are all aware that the rising cost of crude oil in the market is nearing the $100 mark. Ideally, we would all say that this would not matter since alternative fuel sources are here to save the day. Apparently that was what we thought.
While we are all focused on the alternative fuel towards ever increasing oil prices in the world today, we have forgotten to take note that even the raw materials needed to produce biofuels have also been affec

The turn towards the use of biofuels by most of the world today has been something evident and with Brazil agreeing to work in hand with the Filipino government, amassing a larger part of green fuel efficiency may yet be another significant achievement in the world’s drive for lesser greenhouse gases and more alternative green fuels to adhere to the transportation needs.
This drive of the Philippines is a clear symbol of the Republic Act 9367

Biofuels have been pretty much praised for their advent since it has provided people to drive their cars using plants and other natural resources to produce them in lieu of oil and standard gasoline. While this phenomenon has indeed addressed the fuel efficiency and greenhouse gas issue, look a little bit further.
Food and crops are still essential towards providing the basic necessities as illustrated by Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs. Thus, wh

The possibility of using bio fuels in the airline industry will make the industry more eco friendly as carbon emissions that are according to the UK Petroleum Industry Association. Biofuels are produced from biomass normally from vegetable matter, such as oils etc. The use of such biofuels could dramatically reduce the overall emissions from the airlines, however there is no viable biofuel suitable for the airline industry yet.

Climatecars is London’s new eco-taxi program. By combining using hybrid cars, like the Toyota Prius, with a carbon-off-setting program, Climatecars is looking to be the greenest option for travelers in the city centre.
Climatecars received five Toyota Priuses at the beginning of June and are expecting three more in July. “We’re aiming to serve the corporate market in central London who care about their carbon footprints, and by operati

Ecorazzi posted this interview they had with Martin Walsh, the General Manager of Hummer, they had recently in New York. They talk about H3, biofuels, and Arnold Schwarzenegger, among other eco-issues! It’s an interesting and candid look at the guy in charge of the vehicle environmental activists love to hate!
Check out the article that goes with it — and the interviewees new opinions on Hummer — here!

Over $8 million was paid out to eleven projects this week, the projects are to study ways of producing biofuels from rice and switch grass, and how to get better yields from corn etc.
The awards are managed by the Office of Biological and Environmental Research (OBER), and the Cooperative State Research, Education and Extension Service (CSREES) and the recipients are as follows:
The funded projects are:
