Neil Young and 100 MPG

When Neil Young comes to mind, I can only think of one word to describe him…legend! The guy has been rocking for decades, has made hit after hit, dedicated a whole CD to taking on the Bush Administration, an environmentalist, the list simply does not end.

As you may or may not know, for some time now Neil has been working on a way to convert his old 1959 Lincoln into a green machine. Neil has set out to achieve the aggressive target of 100 MPG and win the Automotive X-Prize. Not bad, but can it be achieved?

A lot of information is on the LincVolt website and on the LincVolt youtube channel and he has proclaimed that any progress and knowledge that is learned during his conversion, will be publicly shared to better the automotive industry. What a guy! You can click here to learn more about what Neil has to say.

Stick This in Your Pipe and…

This is a very interesting idea! So right now, with the current economic situation, funds might be tight and budgets may be in place that require a cut back in spending. You may be putting off that Tesla Roadster for awhile, but you still may be looking to reduce you car emissions and keeping spending at a minimum. All the talk in the car industry is redesigning the car, and thats right to a cetain extent. However, what if you could just alter parts of it to run more efficiently? How about an attachment to you tailpipe?Hmm……

This is a great, outside the box idea to reducing car emissions. It’s not the be all end all, but a great idea. The gadget can reduce vehicle air pollution up to 57 percent and greenhouse gases up to 34 percent while increasing fuel economy up to five miles per gallon in lab testing. Click here to learn more.

Keep it Green,
