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. Unfortunately most of the examples consist of horrible people doing destructive things, and of late the fashion parade of favorites seems to be fanatically anti-American terrorists, although this week, a tiny group of Christian fanatic

Filipinos E-jeepneys, BigChanges, Noblesse Oblige, Biofuels Co in the Black
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

Green Movies, Argentine Algae Fuel, Picken Plan Latest Move
Doing It Right In Argentina
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

Bacteria Eat Oil Spill- no DeadZone, Telemedicine Nepal, Cheap Nat. Gas a Sucker Punch? Air Africa ReRoots
Good News Will Have to Wait
I read some good news that I want to share with you about OIL EATING BACTERIA being DISCOVERED, but today I have something more important that I want to share with you first.

Birth and Death Outside Khatmandu
I have received a couple of communications recently from Khatmandu, Nepal, that “kingdom above the clouds” in the Himalayan Mountains, North and East of India. One was a young gentleman wanting to provide power

DryAlgae Jetfuel, Dumb & Running, Nigger News, RFID, Algae Fiber, & Solid State Drive
If James Bond Made an ALGAE Martini …
The legendary James Bond vodka martini was well known to be VERY dry, and shaken, not stirred, so one could postulate that the dry algae jet fuel from AlgaeAviationFuel.com folks could be the James Bond algae jet fuel martini. It too, would be VERY dry, and since the microalgae from which it is produced are already micro-fine in size, it does not need to be ground up by some mechanical process. However, it might also be a good idea to “stir the tank

Amendment Nightmare, East Beats West, Student Retention
Was it a Nightmare?
I must have been mistaken when last night I thought I heard the sounds of noise-makers and celebratory shouts coming from New Orleans. After all the full on ruckus of Mardi Gras doesn’t make it all the way from Louisiana to Arizona without being broadcast, and yet … it sounded like Senator Mary Landrieu’s voice that could be heard above the rest. Ah, wait, I remember now, it was a nightmare I has just as I was falling asleep that Carol Browner, the former head of

David Lewis “Free at Last” but Wrong, WorldBank Food vs Fuel Just a Myth, Senate Back on Track
Democratic Senate, Back on Track
Unlike a comprehensive reform of Immigration Policy that appears to need to be done as one piece, it is perfectly legitimate to cobble together pieces of Energy Policy as a patchwork of "doable" bits of legislation and various regulations from EPA, reforms in and by Mineral Management Service, Department of the Interior and even Department of Transport and FAA in co-operation with the IATA and the airline industry.
