| Will there be gasoline after 100 years |
| 12.05.04 (3:44 am) [edit] |
I am not going to live for next 100 years so why to bother. However, lets see if it will be there. With the rate, gas consumption is going on, I doubt there will be any gas left. With the gas eating SUV's and big gas-guzzler cars, the gas could easily vanish from the face of the earth.
If there will be no fresh air to breath after 100 years then why worry about gas. With the monsters (vehicles) eating gases and throwing harmful exhaust thus damaging environment, the pollution level could be easily achieved where the air present for breathing will be poisoned.
But why to worry, I love riding SUV's and I could afford it for next 20 years. What about speed? I am comfortable with my car so why to go for [b]hybrid cars[/b].
If you also think like me then think again about the generation who would follow us. What we will leave for them? Do think and go for [b]Hybrid cars [/b]as I have finally decided after looking at all the pros and cons. Lets give clean air to the generation next. Please :)

| Buy Hybrid cars and get a $5000 subsidy |
| 12.05.04 (3:19 am) [edit] |
Sorry, only if you are an employee of Hyperion Solutions Corp. The software firm wants its employees to go for [b]hybrid cars[/b] or say drive green vehicles and in return is offering them $5000 subsidy if they buy one.
The company is going to invest a million dollar per year in this program. But the employee has to buy [b]hybrid cars[/b] from only Honda or Toyota which is client of Hyperion.
The company has launched "Companies for Clean Air Consortium" and wants other company to join it and promote the use of [b]hybrid cars[/b] for clean and better future.
Godfrey Sullivan, president and chief executive officer of Hyperion said "One of the most important steps an individual can take to improve the quality of our air is to drive a vehicle that goes further on a gallon or litre of gas. One of the most important steps a company can take is to help them."
