It is undeniable that in this day and age, gasoline has become as important as food and water. Americans on average use 2.58 gallons of gasoline per day! Which is nearly 1,000 gallons per year…and that is just an average. Many people use much more than that. In 2007 alone the United States went through 142,421,076,000 gallons of gasoline, which is an increase of 579,768,000 gallons from the year before (2006). Something must be done to decrease our dependence on oil and the oil producing countries that hate us. But what can we do? The first and most important thing we can do is to elect the right president. By electing the president who wants to drill on our soil, and who wants to look to alternative fuel options as a way out of this mess (pssst…John McCain). But the second thing we can do is to take control of our own consumption and see what we can change.
What can I do to reduce my dependence on foreign oil? One BIG way to do this is to convert your car from a gasoline guzzler, into a water hybrid. Did you know that the car you are driving is a water hybrid? Many people out there have no idea that their car can use water instead of gasoline to operate. Converting your car to a water hybrid will allow you to:
a.) Save money
b.) Reduce smog
c.) Improve mileage on average of 30%-70%
d.) Accelerate more quickly
d.) Reduce your personal dependence on foreign oil
Remarkably using several common, everyday, cheap products will allow you to operate your vehicle even more efficiently than you are now. Those products include:
Distilled water
Baking soda
Tap water
Hydrogen peroxide
Small aquarium pump
Cell phone charger
Another way to reduce your dependence on oil is to heat your home with solar and wind power. And once again it is cheap and easy to do…just requires a little time and patience. Celebrities are always so quick to tell us to ride our bikes to work, while they fly around in their private jets…but this is a way you can actually help improve the environment and save your family thousands of dollars a year.
