The news media are now on board. Time to ramp up the awareness and education for the rest of the public. Alternative energy and going green are now not fringe elements anymore. They must be applied and improved if we are to go forward in our world without polluting ourselves further. Read this from the SF Gate Everything brown is …

Since last weekend's horrific explosion and freeway collapse caused by a gasoline tanker, most of the blame has fallen on the driver, but it's important to remember that that gasoline, which was headed toward a station on Hegenberger Road, had all of our names on it. The accident is a reminder that those of us who use gasoline -- virtually everyone -- play small parts in an enormous and largely invisible trade in toxic, flammable fuels.

It is very cool that the world is starting to sit up and notice that we need [tag-tec]alternative energy[/tag-tec] sources if we are to survive in this world. It is just shocking at times to see how quickly it is catching on. No really. I mean it. Maybe it is a California thing but I doubt that is entirely it …

Found an interesting post on a Oil and Gas industry blog today discussing the merits of [tag-tec]natural gas [/tag-tec]and whether it is “green” or not. Here is a quote from that blog: Natural gas has recently made it into the spotlight, and for good reason: it’s clean burning. And in this post-industrialist era, that’s more than important. Green energy is …

OK so maybe that headline is off, but they did find a new mineral that very much resembles the makeup of [tag-tec]Superman’s [/tag-tec]nemesis Kryptonite. Researchers working in Serbia unearthed a new mineral that comes very close to the chemical makeup of the glowing green crystal described in the Superman returns movie of years back. However the mineral is actually white …

[tag-tec]Solar energy [/tag-tec]contest to promote innovation in housing designs Often times our federal regulators and bureaucrats seem to be stifling innovation and growth in new technologies but not one agency seems to be promoting it and not a minute too soon. The DOE is sponsoring a contest to encourage new designs and innovations in solar energy production. Up till now …

The call has gone out from President Bush to kick our oil habit. For many people, the mention of biomass as a fuel source was a new concept. Little did they realize they have already been putting it into their cars. Nope, that isnt your dads gas anymore. There are Plants in My Gasoline? In his State of the Union …

We told you about the big deal between [tag-tec]BP[/tag-tec] and UCB and Univ of Illinois recently and how they are trying to build a research institute to develop [tag-tec]alternative fuels[/tag-tec]. The deal was announced with big fanfare at UCB. Well now the faculty and students at Berkeley have spoken up and demanded to be heard on this issue. The chancellor …

During the old hot rodding days,oil was king. It was also only about 25 cents a gallon, and everyone thought there was an endless supply. Then we were hit with the oil shock of the seventies, and we realized that there was not an endless supply of oil (only of lines at the gas tanks) and we had to change …

There was a buzz in the air as the state and university folks were clearly slathering over the prospect of such a large grant to fund research and BP was clearly trying to buy some valuable exposure that would make big oil look like sound corporate citizens interested in looking into and developing alternative fuels.

HARRISBURG, Pa., Feb. 1 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ — Citing the urgent need to cut energy costs, move toward energy independence and stimulate the economy, Governor Rendell today released his Energy Independence Strategy. The plan will push Pennsylvania into the top tier of states taking steps to cut consumer energy costs, and significantly expand the alternative fuel, clean energy and conservation sectors. ‘This …

BP today announced it has selected the University of California Berkeley and its partners the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign and the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory to join in a $500 million research program that will explore how bioscience can be used to increase energy production and reduce the impact of energy consumption on the environment.

With the crisis in oil and natural gas prices, the continued violence in the Middle East, and the environmental concerns brought front and center by hurricanes Katrina and Rita, alternative fuels have managed to become a topic of conversation in the mainstream media. Unfortunately, not all proposals make sense environmentally. The energy crisis has given the nuclear industry a major …

In his State of the union address President Bush included his new initiatives for reducing energy dependence on foreign oil. Now the row around the country is whether his plans can work. Democrats and environmentalists seem to think it will not.
