Answer 2

Reducing Gas Prices

We can reduce gas prices, and in many cases reduce our expenses in other areas, by reducing the demand for petroleum products. How do we reduce demand? Easy. Reduce consumption. Here are some suggestions on how to do that:

1. Make sure your tires are properly inflated. Improperly inflated tires reduce gas mileage. Most tires should be inflated to 32-35 psi, but look on your tires for specific numbers.

2. Make sure your engine is properly tuned. An out of tune engine wastes gas and money. Have it checked.

3. When you stop at a stop light, stay stopped until the light is green. Don’t try to ease up a little at a time – this not only wastes gas, but wears out your brakes sooner than normal.

4. Accelerate slowly. Rapid acceleration (“jack rabbit starts”) wastes gas.

5. Use synthetic oil whenever you change or have your oil changed. Since it’s synthetic, you are not using a petroleum product therefore you are reducing demand. Most cars actually get better gas mileage with synthetic oil, so it’s a win win.

6. Whenever possible, use alternative fuels such as biodiesel or E85. They not only reduce petroleum consumption, but they are cheaper and better for the environment. Unfortunately, they are not widely available yet in most places, but start asking about them when you buy gas and fuel distributors will begin to get the message; if they think there is a market, they will supply that market.

7. Don’t rush out to buy a new car… but if you are in the market for one anyway, consider buying a more fuel efficient car or even a hybrid car. Hybrid cars are more expensive but you can get a federal tax credit which will offset much of the extra expense and if you do a lot of driving, the money you save on gas will offset the rest.

8. Carpool.

Answer 3

I would be happy biking. If the world runs out of gas, I'll breathe a big sigh of relief and flip off all the SUV drivers I see stuck on the side of the road.

Answer 4

I already walk to work and sold my car for a motorcycle that gets 60mpg. There is a bigger threat that we will be running out of clean drinking water by 2010. That's why all the chemical companies are buying water rights all over the world. In our lifetime, we will pay more for a gallon of water than we ever had to pay for a gallon of gasoline.

Answer 5

Ride a bike. But then someone will invent this awesome fuel that'll save the day.

Answer 6

First of all there are massive oil reserves yet to be tapped into,but hypothetically if we ran out of petroleum our world would change dramatically because over 60% of our oil consumption is used to make all sorts of products such as plastic, so no bicycle tires, brakes, helmets, hand grips,etc,etc,etc, get the picture?

Answer 7

ride a bike

Answer 8

my boyfriend farts a lot, so we would probably be ok. if that didnt work, i would opt for the horse and buggy, and maybe we would get lucky and my horse would fart a lot..... you see where im going with this?

Answer 9

Use a Bicycle or a Fuel cell car or a car using Hydrogen.

Answer 10

Already have a horse so I would ride her.
