Re: [RC] (RC] Commute - Hybrid Vehicles - Sky Ranch

I agree.  But being more efficient is important, also.

I read that Brazil has been independent of oil imports, for some time -- 
because they have sugar cane-producing ethanol.  I read that sugar cane is
much more efficient, and does not produce as much CO2, as corn-based ethanol
does.  So, instead of promoting corn ethanol, we need to promote sugar cane.
Any ethanol scientists out there to comment on that?

I think the MOST important thing about hybrid cars is that they have lower
emissions than straight gasoline cars, putting less C02 into our already
seriously handicapped ozone. (causing global warming) This is our reason

for

having a Toyota Hybrid Highlander SUV (35-40 mpg) which we love. As well

we

run bio-diesel in the truck, again putting out 10 - 15% of the emissions

of

gas and regular diesel.  Saving money on Mileage is great, but just a perk
when it comes to the BIG picture. We DO need a planet to ride on ;)...Just

2

cents from the proverbial lurkers corner.
