Obama Challenges TeaParty, Japan offers Loans to Calif, Little Green Businesses?
Japan to Finance California Hi-Speed Rail
Americans are fond of “pulling themselves up by the bootstraps”, the quintessential Horatio Alger story, rags to riches, to rags again, back to riches and all that. Indeed, broke, strapped for cash, some $19 billion in the hole this past year (according to some reports at least), Californians nevertheless voted to okay borrowing US$10 billion to finance the beginnings of a high speed rail system for the state that is primarily a connector of the

Tony Blair Warns of Global Jihad
Whenever I get frustrated with my own lack of progress in trying to inform the world about how quick, easy and simple a transition to biofuels could be, something comes along that proves to me that a small group of people really can affect the fate of the world.

Filipinos get eJeepneys on Battery Power
A company called PhUV but also known at the retail level as the Electric Jeepney company has created a battery powered version of the ubiquitous “Jeepney” bus vehicles that fill the roads, highways and barely trodden paths to transport more people in the Philippines than virtually any other means of transport. They call it the “ejeepney”. Tackling the problems of fossil fuel dependency and of fossil carbon air pollution at this point in the

This week a new biofuel plant began operations in Argentina, which in itself is less than earth shattering news, but this one is a little different. You see this is the first biofuel plant to offer a commercially available, retail grade biodiesel made from algae oil. Okay, that’s only partly true, but I’m not trying to lie to you so here’s the rest of the story.
They are using soybean oil too. So far it is 100% biodiesel, but it is 90% soy oil, and ju
