With the Climate Bill and Clean Water Act under discussion, the push for alternative fuels has never been greater. In this report, the Monitor’s Ryan Naquin shows how one biofuels company is educating farmers how they can produce biofuel in their own backyards.

Grow mass amounts of algae and produce 20000+ gallons of bio-fuel on one acre. With the amount of farm space of 1/10 the size of New Mexico we could produce enough fuel to fill the United States’ need for oil.

In the coming days and weeks, THH, Inc. will introduce the long-awaited breakthrough California, America, and the world have all been waiting for. Our looklocaltm solution will make petroleum replacement practical and achievable in as little as 10 years. The “looklocaltm Get The Lead Out” campaign will begin with an innovative biofuel flight. Starting from the Pacific Ocean, Len Johnson, our President and CEO, will fly a plane he personally built burning a biofuel to the Wright brothers monument at historic First Flight Airport in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina. It is appropriate that we publicize this fuel by replacing 100 octane Low Lead (100LL) with a green, unleaded alternative. Biobutanol has potentially broad application- it can be blended with or replace virtually any motor fuel, whether gasoline or diesel. Len has already solved biodiesel infrastructure hurdles with an invention that provides the capability of producing enormous quantities of vegetable oil, fresh water and salt while replacing jet fuel, diesel fuel, heating oil, and green petrochemical feedstocks by developing local resources within the United States and other countries. This will greatly diminish the influences of the world fuel economy politically, economically, socially, and environmentally while retaining the wealth and jobs our national economy has been sending overseas. Len is now turning his attention to developing an infrastructure solution to replace gasoline with a practical, green alternative, biobutanol. Neither of Lens solutions will have a negative impact on the world food supply, and will even increase agriculture by delivering water to dry areas. We are witnessing a watershed moment- an environmentally sound beginning to the future history of hydrocarbon fuels.

I’m sure you’ve notice that the price of diesel is steadly going up. We have a solution. Gary – 866-605-6431 Paul 360-815-5858

The Virgin Atlantic Boeing 747 flight was part of a joint initiative with planemaker Boeing and engine manufacturer GE Aviation to develop a “sustainable aircraft fuel.” No passengers were onboard. Virgin Atlantic President Richard Branson said the test flight would help the airline to use clean fuel sooner than expected. “The demonstration flight will give us crucial knowledge that we can use to dramatically reduce our carbon footprint,” Branson said in a statement. “Virgin Group pledged to invest all its profits from its transportation companies towards developing clean energy and with this breakthrough we are well down the path to achieving our goals.” Virgin said the fuel to be used for Sunday’s flight — a 20 percent biofuel mix of coconut and babassu oil in one of the plane’s four main fuel tanks — was of a type that wouldn’t compete with food and fresh water resources amid mounting concerns among green campaigners about the environmental impact of biofuels. Some studies suggest that converting land for crops such as palm oil used for biofuel can generate far more in carbon emissions than the savings delivered by the fuel. Increased use of biofuels could also prompt food shortages, campaigners warn, as greater areas of farmland are turned over to biofuel production. Kenneth Richter, Friends of the Earth aviation campaigner, said: “Biofuels are a major distraction in the fight against climate change. There is mounting evidence that the carbon savings from biofuels are negligible. “If Virgin was really serious about reducing the aviation industry’s impact on the environment it would support calls for aircraft emissions to be included in the (UK government’s) Climate Change Bill.”
