alternate fuels can help the environment, your wallet, and food shortage
Target:
to get automobile companies to stop using oil and start using alternate fuels
Sponsored by:
we have to get at least one big car company to invest in making cars that run off alternate fuels. if we get someone to take this challenge we can make a huge difference in global warming because to make alternate fuels such as ethanol we need to plant crops in this case corn but with the amounts of corn that in the U.S. alone would be able to grow we would not just not need oil anymore but with all the plants that will be planted and the amounts of CO2 that corn takes in to grow it would make a huge difference in the amounts of pollution in the air. another alternate fuel could be palm oil that although it is a 5 year investment until it starts producing the seed from where the oil is extracted when it starts giving off seeds you will be able to extract massive amounts of it at a time. ethanol pollutes a lot less than petroleum and this makes it ideal for today's needs. after the corn is treated the after products can be used as animal feed which would produce natural fertilizers and make this a self sufficient business. and the corn or wheat that is used for the ethanol can also be used for food if it is not processed.

The only problem is whenever you burn something for fuel, it pollutes! How about harnessing solar or wind energy? Let's find a renewable source of energy that minimises the damage to the environment!!

While individual scientists have voiced disagreement with some findings of the IPCC, the overwhelming majority of scientists working on climate change agree with the IPCC's main conclusions. Climate model projections summarized by the IPCC indicate that average global surface temperature will likely rise a further 1.1 to 6.4 °C (2.0 to 11.5 °F) during the twenty-first century.
