and improve the environment. The cost of gas is expensive enough and car companies are employing new tactics to alleviate most of the pollution that cars cause‚ by the use of electric cars‚ cars that have higher gas mileage‚ smaller cars‚ smaller engines and inspection regulations for each automobile to be done every year. As far as raising gas prices‚ I think that will cause more damage than good. People rely too much on transportation nowadays to make gas expensive. It would potentially put the

Oil and gas conservation means their better and more efficient use with regard to economic‚ social or environment costs and benefits resulting minimization of wastage and protection of environment. A very high priority is attached by the government to conservation of petroleum products in view of the need to reduce increasing gap between demand for and supply of oil and petroleum products. Government has initiated various steps to promote conservation of petroleum products in the different sectors

energy of the exhaust gases of an engine. A turbocharger consists of a turbine and a compressor on a shared shaft. The turbine converts exhaust heat and pressure to rotational force‚ which is used to drive the compressor. The turbocharger‚ or "turbo"‚ is mounted directly to the exhaust manifold‚ here turbine impeller is attached to a short shaft where exhaust gases will pass. On the other side of this shaft is a compressor turbine‚ where through air filter the air is pulled out and blows it into the

energy. Wind energy comes from wind turbines‚ similar to windmills‚ which use the wind to make electricity. This renewable energy resource is very affordable‚ clean‚ and it can never run out because the wind comes from the sun. But according to Selling the Wind by Michelle Nijhuis‚ “It’s well known that wind turbines kill both birds and bats‚ though exactly how often and why these deaths occur is remains poorly understood” (Nijhuis 464). Although wind turbines can be resourceful for energy purposes

We also learn that campaigners want clearer rules governing the approval of building wind turbines in order to protect ‘much-loved views’ from being ruined.

27 years. (5) The 20th century brought with it the large scale production of electricity through wind farms. This is where wind mills become wind turbines. There was also use of smaller type turbines where the electrical grid could not reach. This was capitalised by Joe Jacobs and Marcellus Jacobs who set up a factory in Minneapolis that produce turbines to create electricity off the grid.(6) This brings us up to now where there is an emphasis on renewable energy and an active effort to reduce the
