You know, for a couple brief months in late 2008 the people actually "got it". Gas prices climbed to over $4.00 per gallon in the U.S.A. and people were screaming for a change.
But, then the world economies crashed (mostly because of gas prices) and the oil companies reduced their prices... They had to afterall, people were BROKE! People became "blind sheep" again.
Even now after the collapse of the major auto manufacturers there are going to be more than 40 million new gas cars produced this year.
THAT'S 400 MILLION GAS CARS ON THE ROADS WORLDWIDE IN THE NEXT 10 YEARS!
Do the math...The world is still heading full speed toward higher gas prices and more severe recessions. It's going to get bad, real bad.
There have been no major discoveries of oil reserves since the 1970's and even though oil companies are better at extracting oil THE SUPPLY WILL NEVER KEEP UP WITH WORLDWIDE DEMAND.
As oil becomes more strained there will be more conflicts over supply, more shortages, higher gas prices, higher grocery prices, higher prices for everything, more bankruptcies, unemployment, more failing businesses... poverty and more wars.
In the past year we've received several serious offers from Chinese and Middle East companies. They want to either buy us out or invest in our diestribution. Sure with the USA companies would show a commitment!
This website involves a heck of a lot more than just "new cars"... or "cleaner air"... Our only hope in the future will be the complete phase out of gas burning vehicles.
We're asking for your support. Approximately 1 person in 10,000 will look for a true alternative. Out of that only a small percentage will actually support electric vehicle technologies.
Find an electric car and buy it... Even if it's just a little car to get you to the grocery store and back, this will add up.
Do something more than just complain about gas prices... eliminate them!
