Weaning our country off its dependence on petroleum will reduce both global warming and America's balance of trade deficit.

Did you also know that America imports approximately 8 million barrels a day at $90-$100 per barrel, costing us roughly $720 million per day?  Cars and trucks are among the biggest culprits, so President Obama has mandated that automobiles get 50.5 miles per gallon by the year 2025.

There's something you can do right now, to even more dramatically decrease the use of gasoline.  Buy a flex fuel vehicle and start using E-85 gasoline.  E-85 is made of 85% renewable fuel and only 58% petroleum.  It's simple and easy to use because you don't have to do anything different from what you do right now when you gas up.

2025 is a long way off.  Start reducing global warming and dependence on foreign oil now by purchasing a flex fuel vehicle and using E-85 in your car.
