Turn to Smaller Car! Is that Your Solution?

brought to you by How Can We Save Energy


Its obvious that the gas prices are out of our control! We can not wait the traditional theory of supply and demand will fix the problem any longer, it doesn't seem to be the solution we need. So what can we do about gas prices?

There are some options people response to this situation:

  1. Turn to smaller, more fuel-efficient cars.
  2. Boycott buying gas from big companies, such as Exxon and Mobil. By doing this perhaps these two big guys will be inclined to reduce their prices and the other companies will have to follow suit.
  3. Urge the government to drill more oil domestically.
  4. Push the government to build more refineries.
  5. Pressure the government to the taxes.
  6. Keep on maintaining the lifestyle by paying more money every time they fill up the fuel. We can se on the road large vehicles, including luxury SUVs, remain as popular as ever.
  7. Lock the car in the garage for good.
Which option will you take? Lets analyze them one by one.
If you choose to move to a smaller car, the question is how small can you take since the gas prices tend to go higher and higher. Your car will getting smaller and smaller and you'll realize its not a car you need for your activities anymore!

And if you choose to boycott the two biggest oil companies, the problem with this idea is, it only works if millions of people do it. It doesn't work if only a few people do it. So the question remains, what can we do?

Waiting for the government to push oil companies drill more oil domestically? Now gas prices are so high that we simply can't afford to wait for big oil companies to get off their duff and drill for domestic oil.

And seriously, can we afford to wait for more refineries to be built? How will that lower the costs?

A few people seem to think that lowering the taxes will do the trick. Well, politicians will embrace these remedies, but the only thing that is happening is, we are deeper and deeper in this big mess. We know that lowering taxes won't work, because retailers will pick up the slack rather than pass the savings on to consumers.So, what can we do about gas prices, other than pay the tyrant oil companies anything they want for gas? Why not convert the water into gas? Is that possible?

Why Are Gas Prices So High?

brought to you by How Can We Save Energy


For a couple of weeks I have been questioning why oil prices is soaring to the sky? And to tell you the truth, I am getting tired of this crazy high gas prices!! If you have the same question as mine, perhaps this article below can help you clear the clouds....and solve our problem!

Remember the internet bubble boom and bust? Or is your head still reeling from the housing bubble burst? With oil prices doubling in only a year, you might be asking "bubble bubble, or is oil in trouble?"

Retail gas prices surged to almost $4 a gallon, and in some parts of the country, they are surging close to $5. Gas prices keep setting new records every day.

The real question is, why are gas prices so high? There are many factors to calculate when determining how much higher gas prices will go. We must consider supply, demand, the strength of the dollar, politics and of course speculation.

Still, while looking at the gas pricing formula, things don't seem to add up. For example, it was only a few months ago when we were trading oil for only $86 a barrel. The supply really hasn't changed that much since then. There is no oil shortage. In fact, inventories actually rose a bit. As for demand, we see that our sluggish economy has managed to put a dent in demand. Our weak dollar which has been slipping into a deep coma, is now starting to show signs of life, and that typically dictates lower prices for gas. These conditions alone might suggest that we're in an oil bubble which is about to burst.

However, the situation of why are gas prices so high is much more complicated than that, and the really bad news is, things will only get much worse.

Right now, the out of control oil prices are hitting many parts of our economy harder than others, and it is especially hurting those companies who use a lot of oil.

Airlines are going bankrupt. And the ones who are struggling to survive are tightening their seatbelts for a very long and bumpy ride ahead. Just this month they announced that they are cutting jobs and chagrining new fees for baggage.

Carmakers are also cutting back, reducing vehicle production and laying off workers. If gas prices go much higher, the damage to the United States economy will be much more serious than a mild recession.

Consumers are now driving less, which has sent oil investors in a panic about falling demand, which has helped to send oil prices sharply lower. Normally a drop means lower prices at the pump. But in this case, the drop looks like the perfect buying opportunity to some investors in the oil speculation arena, which pushes gas prices even higher.

But will the price of gas go down? It's hard to say. We do know that as prices continue to go up and up, consumers will use less and less. That will devastate our economy because the price of food and other necessities will be driven up. The trucking industry will slowly diminish. Jobs will be lost and wages will be flat. It will become a death spiral which will be hard to escape, unless the price of gas does drop sharply and remain manageable.

Obviously that means consumers have tremendous power in this equation. And a simple solution within their grasp is simply to change from using gasoline in their cars to burning water. Thousands of people have made the switch, with many more on course to do so.
