Brazil and Alternative Fuels

[sheilabelohorizonte]

The petroleum crisis started 35 years ago. In that time in Brasil we started a program named PRO-ALCOOL. Today 80% of our cars use fuel from sugarcane, besides sugarcane we have other alternative fuels. This was our answer for those who are owner the oil.

[oPickful]

We have this in Iran already. Also in Malaysia

[bluemoondiadochi]

whoa, that's a pre-1993. Lada Niva! if driving THAT spends only 8 dollars a week, imagine how little a more economical car would spend! lada guzzles like 12 litres of gasoline! good conversion!

Brazil, Guatemala, africa . England , Canada and others European countries are even charging a tax on oxigen. The NWO is here and is time to fight back. We need a worldwide revolution of all humans. We need the help of Arnold Schwarzenegger to help us to destroy evil. Just want thing Arnold, "Stay away from my wife Rosita". Arnold is the new Sexminator of 2011.

Poor countries are the real source of technology, USA either steal or force the to sell it for their own gains. Until the US government stop kissing the big oil boy"s asses like Chenney, The Bush and king of Saudi we are still hostage to these terrorists. Wonder no more who the real terrorist are in the world. Like the Bush family buying huge amounts of land in Paraguay, which sit on fresh water beds. They are planning to privatize every drop of water everywhere. It has happened in India

[MrDANIELDMARTINRIOS]

maybe cheaper than ethanol

$2.97/gallon feb/2011 in florida

[egn83b]

poor countries are the real source of technology america just makes the idea and ships them away no benefit.

[djape1977]

@egn83b

lol

CNG or LPG is not american idea.

[wiigamer136]

@djape1977

We run cars in India on CNG and LPG.

[varigdc10]

I think Brazil is quietly trying to take over the world, except in a peaceful way.

[tresloukadu]

They launched here a 100% brazilian eletric car.. find on google "Palio Weekend Elétrico"

[tresloukadu]

actually in brazil we have Tetra Fuel cars. with alchool, gasoline, natural gas and power energy.

[megatwingo]

Very interesting Video! Thumbs up!

[deltaalpha21074]

What about Alcohol?? Hear Brazil runs on that big time!

[rsmith1027]

@deltaalpha21074

Flex power cars in Brazil can burn either gasoline OR alcohol. Most people if not burning Nat. Gas are burning alcohol. I've never seen a car that can flex between alcohol & Nat. Gas, but it's a good idea! USA is way behind on rolling out Nat. Gas stations & vehicles!!! My fellow Americans! Let's wake UP! TWO WORDS "PICKENS PLAN" ,....contact your state leaders TODAY!!!

@rsmith1027 in brasil we have cars who runs in nat gas, ethanol and gasoline.

[rsmith1027]

I've lived off & on in Rio de Janeiro since 2004. Brazil is ahead of USA when it comes to powering their vehicles with clean energy. Most cars now-a-days are "FLEX" power cars,....meaning you can use alcohol OR gasoline. But alcohol is cheaper, so most people burn alcohol. Seeing more & more Nat. Gas vehicles in Brazil & most refueling stations support them. What's up with USA? Why are we still stuck on crude oil?

[deltaalpha21074]

@rsmith1027@rsmith1027 What is up with USA? Well ever read BIBLE states about Sodom and Gamorah? USA is about 10,000 x worse Wash and NYC! OIL CREEPS in HOUSTON and other locations make trillions like huh BP who has totally damaged Gulf OF Mexico.GOVERNMENT of USA get billions of dollars from BIG OIL to stay in office and JUDGES like Supreme court have millions in stock with BIG Oil that is truly 1 million percent WHY they keep OIL which as you know is refined into gasoline Jet fuel DIESEL.

[rsmith1027]

test

[deltaalpha21074]

@rsmith1027 OH hell I don't have to test there are thousands of Chevy HRR or Chevrolet Trucks Ford Taurus runs on E-85 so does just about any vehicle with converters but but but USA Government is most Devil crooked system since CEASER of Rome( They don't allow it all over)....JUst look at BP and shit they have done...Like I said; NUKE WASH DC and WALL STREET and our problems are solved over night Top Lobbyists OIL COMPANIES all of them Houston, Texas

[varigdc10]

@rsmith1027 I am Brazilian living in Chicago and see whats going on here. Its very simple, the Brazilian experiment will never work in USA until the good old boys oil club is destroyed. People like Busch, Chenney and countless others and similar folks will never let that happen.

[MsAlexUSA]

acho q a planta q o brasil emvestiga e a maconha kkk

[00rodrigofaria00]

kkkkkkkk

os meninos ficaram sem entender

[atgmam]

Decisions are driven by consumers and if you want a natural gas car, convert it.

We live in a free country and the govenment shoundn't make that decision for us, we should make the decision and the market will provide what we want. Economics 101

[btrflyjens]

The corn-based ethanol was a money making scam from the start. Don't be fooled by ethanol either, its the same gimmick.

Brazil had FOUR options at the pump TEN years ago (including ethanol and methanol). I learned this from a brazilian couple I met. They also told me about a plant that Brazil was investigating that was really amazing- I wish I remembered the name of it.

[ehartjr]

It´s Mamona, isn't it?

[btrflyjens]

@ehartjr hahaha, yes, that was it!

[btrflyjens]

by the way- the big energy and oil companies don't want you to know about the real solutions- just the ones that can keep their status quo. algae biofuel for example gets no press, but is absolutely incredible as an energy alternative.

[BigGixxerUSA]

My dad is a customer service guy for a natural gas company and he has this flex fuel thing in his work truck. It isnt hard to convert. you dont need a fuel pump, just run a line straight to the injectors cuz its pressurized. so they do have it in the states, not just brazil and it doesnt realy save money cuz natural gas is still a finite resource from the same people who drill for oil

[marcelojiu]

the etanol (alcool) is much more effcient and more cheap actually, check for know, with alcool you got ur car faster and save ur money, etanol rulez

[cfellow]

Natural gas is not a long term solution. When gas prices become so unbearable so that everybody moves to natural gas... guess what? its gonna go up.

We need technology so that we can make the fuel in our backyard.

Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.

[jesslessthemess]

it's called magnegas. Look it up. Look up gasification, hydropyrolysis. There's 1000s of people making their own gas. So long as you don't wait for Ford or Walmart to sell it, you can do it.

[jlong232]

I have a Ford F250 that run on natural gas(CNG), but I can not find any station.

[hummer4x4guy]

jlong start emailing the fuel stations you have near you and tell them you want CNG. I keep doing the same myself

[concerned00citizen]

Thank u, thank u for the video! Great job. Come on young folks it's up to you guys to DEMAND a difference. College folks... ah where are u????

[acerd1]

Search Google people they are kits out there like this. I've seen them available for diesels but not for gas cars. Try also electrolysis fuel cells if anyone gets curious.

[edwinbau]

were can i do the convercion on my Tundra(Toyota) here In Miami,Florida please let me know..gas is too high!!!!! I expense $70.00 dollars every 3 days

[rocker12347]

where can i get the natural gas tanks, or is their a kit you can get to convert a vehicle to make it a flexi car

[myko]

this video has been posted on the alternative fuels portal on WiserEarth (dot) org!

[kennethcmdk]

Cool, I want a flexi car too, gasoline prices are way too high :-( Nice video guys
