As oil prices take another jump up, alternative fuels continue to usher in a new era of powering technology and automobiles. As much as the oil prices are outside of our control, finding other ways to reduce the use of harmful fuels or using alternative fuels is completely within our control.
There are many hydrogen fuel cells moving into the automotive industry, water-powered cell phones and even blood-powered batteries as combatants to the evil oil prices. So save some money and get around another way!
