There may be relief in sight. We need to track this legislation and make sure the American people are protected as it moves through congress. This could open up the conversion market if we hold our representatives and senators feet to the fire.

Here is a piece of legislation that proposes to deal with the natural gas regulations on the federal level.

Senator James M. Inhofe of Oklahoma Introduces Drive America on Natural Gas Act and we need to show our support. This is a first step on the road to energy independence.

Below is the contact page.

Here is Senator James M. Inhofes website

The regulations of certification are addressed in a way to open up the market. Finally!!!!!!!!!

We have to drown out the foreign oil Lobbyists in Washington. Collectively We have to become the VOICE for changing our reliance on foreign oil, by Vocalizing our Support for the wide scale use of Alternative Energy Producing Systems.

The ACTION we can take Today is to influence our LEGISLATURE. We must change the thinking in Washington. This is accomplished by CONTACTING your Senator, Representative, Governors.

The following links to Websites are one way of Contacting Congress. I find these links to be the quickest at getting to the "contact web form" used by most of Washington.

SENATORS:
http://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/senators_cfm.cfm
and look for the link to their web form

Representatives:

To Contact Your Governor:

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi

Vacant Buildings - Holyoke

Download the pdf (4 MB) and get a sense of where we have to start.

Then watch us grow and implement a plan to install grid tied solar pv systems on all rooftops, and most importantly, bring an entire City back to life as Carbon Free as possible.

It had zero emissions, great pick up, ran like a top and never had to fill it up. If you produce your own solar energy with PVC panels, then you are both off the grid at home AND on the road. Why doesn't Pickens back that? Sure makes me wonder.

At 12:59pm on July 8, 2008, David Smith said…: Both the liberal and conservative approaches has shown themselves to be bankrupt and determined to destroy the American economy. I am a centrist and see both approaches as completely unethical. We have to use a mixed bag approach to gain energy independence. The liberals sell economic pain while the conservatives sell dependence on oil. At least this approach gets outside of the proverbial box and addresses the issue in a truthful manner. As for PVC and electric automobiles, I simply see them as a part of the mix of energy systems that will slowly remove our dependence on oil.

I would think an environmentalist would support CNG since it is a bridge to hydrogen fuel. Below is a link to a site where the blending of hydrogen and CNG was tested with great success.
