Because the full Agenda is several pages long, please present the Agenda Priorities (PDF) to Legislators and make sure they know there is a full 16 page Agenda with many other important issues available.

There are two kinds of alternate fuels that are readily available that lower your carbon foot print and use AMERICAN resources and create AMERICAN jobs rather than supporting big oil companies and oil nations like Saudi Arabia, Iran and Venezuela.

Here are some biodiesel stations in Tennessee. Biodiesel is less polluting and has a smaller carbon footprint than regular diesel, and is produced right here in the USA. Why support Saudi Arabia, Iran and Venezuela when you can support American jobs? Biodiesel can be used in almost any diesel engine.

ETHANOL: Cars labeled FlexFuel (now becoming common in some states) can use up to E85 (85% ethanol/15% gasoline). E85 burns cleaner than gasoline and is usually cheaper. I have used E85 in California and found it to be 10-40 cents cheaper than the cheapest gasoline at the same station. CLICK HERE TO FIND STATIONS IN TENNESSEE OFFERING E85. This can be a really good way to help the American economy, help the environment, AND save money.

ETHANOL: Cars labeled FlexFuel (now becoming common in some states) can use up to E85 (85% ethanol/15% gasoline). E85 burns cleaner than gasoline and is usually cheaper. I have used E85 in California and found it to be 10-40 cents cheaper than the cheapest gasoline at the same station. CLICK HERE TO FIND STATIONS IN TENNESSEE OFFERING E85. This can be a really good way to help the American economy, help the environment, AND save money.
