Answer 1

Most alternative fuels are impractical or replace one problem with another, or require us to modify all of our gas stations to accommodate. Best thing to do is redesign the internal combustion engine to get rid of inefficiencies, such as the power needed to operate the valves, timing, exhaust fumes, intake more fuel, and then compress it.

We defiantly need to use less oil.

Answer 2

Less oil for sure. These frickin oil companies better leave the Amazon alone!
