Gasoline Is Toxic Waste – Literally

June 10th, 2009

Oil companies like Chevron have pressured PBS, commercial TV networks and other news media to keep this basic information from the public for decades – and the censorship continues to this day.

We Don’t Need Gasoline, Never Did

Facts: Scientific and historical about gasoline and alcohol

1. The original automobiles ran on alcohol because when they were invented gasoline was not available.

2. Rockefeller spent $4 million (that we know of) to promote Prohibition, a ban on alcohol manufacturing in the US that started in 1919 just as the car industry was taking off.

3. When Prohibition was lifted in 1933, gasoline stations were ubiquitous and most engines ran on gasoline only.

4. Alcohol can be manufactured locally and on a community level from renewable plant material for $1 per gallon.

5. The growing of plant material for alcohol would have no effect on the price of food.

6. The growing of plants for fuel would more than neutralize the carbon created by burning alcohol for fuel.

7. In Brazil, over 50% of new cars sold can already run on 100% alcohol.

8. Producing alcohol from plant material is incredibly energy efficient.

9. The oil companies aggressively promote garbage science to deceive the public into believing that alcohol fuels: a) will cause starvation, b) are uneconomical, and c) are net polluters.

10. Gasoline is a high toxic material.

11. It is entirely unneeded to fuel our cars.

12. Oil companies like Chevron have pressured PBS, commercial TV networks and other news media to keep this basic information from the public for decades – and the censorship continues to this day.

    when cars were first available, a fair few were electric – the petrol / gas industry bought and buried improvements to electric motors that would have made electric cars more competitive. I didn’t know the first liquid fuel cars were running on alcohol, but I didn’t know that the first diesel engine ran on peanut oil (called a diesel engine after its inventor – Mr Diesel) – the oil companies did a major job of changing that

    And what about the water-steam cars, a fine American line of innovation; their patents all bought up by petroleum companies after being pilloried as dangerous?

    This doesn’t surprise me. If something seems evil, ruins the environment, enslaves, appears wrong, doesn’t make sense, shouldn’t be that way—all you have to do is trace it’s origin and lo and behold, the Rockefellers are standing their looking like the cat that ate the canary.

    It is no wonder that this world is so fucked when you realize the Rockefellers have had their hand in everything!

    Maybe not the solution to everything, but it would certainly go a long way if electric car technology were developed and all new powerplants were nuclear. Nuclear fusion when it’s been developed enough to produce net energy, but nuclear fission seems to me the best way to go at the moment.

    Anyone who thinks they can help the environment by driving one of the silly hybrid cars like a Prius is just wrong, their fuel consumption isn’t even comparable to perfectly normal cars like a Punto, or a 306.

    Whoohooo! Go Green!
    Is that the P.C. response needed?
    And, ALL the fatties can quit eating & the skinny too. Use all the farm lands to power cars!
    Sounds just swell!
