The global warming from carbon fuel hoax was created with the specific intent of screwing us out of our money.

Follow the money trail and it runs all the way to our politicians pockets... Al Gore anyone?

Get it now? The entire world is controlled via oil. You don't overturn that power without conflict. Look at all the wars, money and lives being wasted. BUT people are getting rich. You won't end their gravy train without a fight.

Natural Gas is a good source of energy. The shift in the trend is due to the availability, less processing cost and it is highly portable. Used of natural gas in the automobiles can reduce emission. If distribution is done well it can reduce our dependency on oil imports. Thanks for the post.http://www.automobilecontacts.com/autoblog/bush-hog-atvs.html

Natural Gas is our best short term solution to reduce dependancy on foreign oil and create jobs locally and lower emissions. When combined with hybrid electic and the fact combustion engines can run on more than one type of fuel adds to the solution. Hands down I feel designing a vehicle that can run on gasoline and nat gas, and is an electric hybrid will be the next car of the future. Replaced only when fuel cell techology becomes competitive. Forget about all electric. Won’t happen.

I don’t know where hes getting his info from. We have plenty of natural gas and it won’t run out anytime soon. we have new transportation technology for LNG. And its not dirty. He should read how dirty it is to mine the rare earths for all the “clean” tech. Its cheap. we aren’t burning gasoline for electricity. also, if America does run out in the next 50 years of natural gas, there is always the mideast. Right now we have a lot of capped ng wells, just sitting around. We have too much to use ourselves.

I’d buy a honda Civic NGV vehicle in a heartbeat!! We drove them at a municipality and they perform like a “gasoline engine”. Clean emissions, powerful and we have enough natural gas to run this country for hundreds of years. What are we waiting for? World war 3?
Battery cars! They may be good for Intercity driving, but for long distances solely are batteries, forget it!

On what basis do you write "flagging Pickens Plan. The alternative energy scheme would seek to replace gasoline with compressed natural gas, which generates 30 percent less emissions and is readily abundant within the United States. Pickens spent what any non-billionaire would consider a fortune promoting and investing in this idea, with little or nothing to show for it as of yet."

While stalled, subsidies for natural gas in trucking has (sadly) massive support in the Congress.

I think you mean "very slightly reduced". A single startup car company is not going to suddenly replace the hundreds of millions of vehicles on the road today.

Building natural gas vehicles is a nice minor stop-gap measure until EVs take hold, but unless the major auto makers get behind it, it won't make the slightest dent in our dependence on foreign oil. And frankly, it's better if major auto makers just focus on getting EVs into mass production. We can always power EVs using NG, but we can't power CNG vehicles using solar/geothermal/nuclear/wind/hydro.

Hybrid Kinetic Motors will build CNG engine hybrid cars in Alabama with the helps from natural gas organizations. If this project gets through in a proper way, the dependence in foreign oil will be greatly reduced.
