make their residency here the demand for fuel increases‚ thus‚ causing higher prices for fuel. Gas prices have been increasing at alarming rates over the last five years. There has also been a significant increase in the use of fossil fuels. This year alone‚ gas increased to a whopping $3.21 average in the state of Alabama alone (www.gasbuddy.com). California had the biggest increase going above the $5.00 mark (www.gasbuddy.com). As long as our fossil fuel supplies continue to vanish‚ the price

the environment at risk. Air pollution is currently one of the five leading causes of death worldwide and the usage of fossil fuels is a major factor contributing to this. (Future talk: clean renewable energy September 2013). Fossil fuels are finite sources of energy; while the demand for energy will continue to increase‚ there will still be a decrease in amount of fossil fuels available‚ which means humans will need to find other sources of energy. There are numerous sources of alternative energy;

When you smell food your stomach rumbles with hunger. Food is everywhere. It’s all around us‚ it’s our main resource to live. You can buy food from anywhere you want‚ but what about the World War Two soldiers‚ why couldn’t they get whatever they wanted. World War Two soldiers had limited protein on their canned food back then‚ in this day and age you can get protein from anywhere. Food is a very scarce resource and it was relied a lot by the soldiers‚ in which they got small portions of it.

the World Food Crisis. As US Subprime credit and mortgage problems crunch harder into global national economies‚ Inflation is on sky rocket high. There is a surge in commodity prices particularly for food staples thus pushing up consumer prices across the globe.

The paper will also try to point out the underlying causes for the historical food shortage

Hydrogen Fuel Cells There are many reasons to look for new cleaner forms of energy. Fossil fuels‚ being non-renewable‚ will eventually run out. Pollution from burning fossil fuels destroys our environment. Hydrogen fuel cells could be used many places where fossil fuels are currently being used. Using hydrogen as a form of energy can not only reduce our dependence on imported oil‚ but also benefit the environment by reducing emissions of greenhouse gases and pollutants that affect our air quality

DUAL-FUEL™ TECHNOLOGY Current Dual-Fuel™ Technology Dual-Fuel™ is fitted onto a standard diesel engine‚ which operates unchanged‚ except power is generated by mostly clean natural gas. A measured quantity of natural gas is mixed with the air just before it enters the cylinder and compressed to the same levels as the diesel engine to maintain efficiency. The natural gas mixture does not ignite spontaneously under compression‚ so the Dual-Fuel™ engine uses a small injection of diesel fuel‚ around

Article Diesel Fuel Injection One big difference between a diesel engine and a gas engine is in the injection process. Most car engines use port injection or a carburetor. A port injection system injects fuel just prior to the intake stroke (outside the cylinder). A carburetor mixes air and fuel long before the air enters the cylinder. In a car engine‚ therefore‚ all of the fuel is loaded into the cylinder during the intake stroke and then compressed. The compression of the fuel/air mixture limits
