alternative fuels

Our wonderful rising star of the GOP recently illustrated just how much of an ass he is this Saturday when he voted against a Democratic Energy Conservation bill.

The old saying was a simple, “Need is the Mother of all Invention” In today’s world need is not enough because we have so few needs that haven’t been met in some way. The greatest need in today’s world is energy and we have solved this need by burning fossil fuels. Needless to say this was a bad choice, but the one available and the only one we had the technology to use for much of the past century. Now we are seeing the damage done to our planet by the use of these dirty carbon dioxide expelling fuels and our need is to find another source of fuels. This is especially true in a world hell bent on so-called advancement at any cost. The United States has been the biggest polluter up to this point, but today China and India are quickly catching up. Just at the time when the majority scientists have finally agreed that too much greenhouse gases are entering our atmosphere and destroying the shield protecting the earth from destructive ultraviolet rays from our Sun.
