...Week 1 Eco 365 Article Analysis The name of the article on this paper is OP-ED: Falling Gasoline Use Means U.S. Can Just Say No to New Pipelines and Food-to-Fuel. Through this paper, we have to analyze the basis for the trends in consumption patterns. Consider the utility derived from a product or service mentioned in the article. Describe what has occurred to change the demand for the product or service and its market and equilibrium prices. Describe what has occurred to change the supply of the product or service and its market and equilibrium prices. In your opinion, is demand for this product or service price elastic or inelastic? What does this imply about how consumers respond to changes in the price of this product or service? According to an article from the Inter Press Service, gasoline consumption trends have been declining (Larson, 2013). The declined gasoline consumption has an effect on the utility that is derived from the product. There are different reasons for the decrease that include individuals using different means of transportation, use of other fuels, and decreased sales. Although the price of gasoline has risen, and is still rising, the product is still to considerably inelastic. The inelastic price on gasoline affect the economy in all ways. The decline in gasoline consumption has an effect on the utility of the product including the decline of usefulness of the product among consumers, but still needing the product for exports in the United States...

...We will spend this week reading about how both geographical and demographic differences impact people's access to technology. Define the concept of the "Digital Divide" and discuss its implications. How do geographical and demographic differences among people influence their access to technology? Can you think of any other predictors of access to technology? Discuss these and how they might impact one's access to technology. Digital Divide is the space between those who have access to computing technology and those who don’t. For example, there’s people who choose not to use the Internet, while there’s others who use it everyday. I think geographical and demographic differences among people can influence their access to technology especially the Internet in many ways. The first way geographical differences among people can influences their access to technology is because not every country has enough resources to offer the Internet for everybody. There’s countries like Africa and Australia where it’s quite difficult to have access to any type of technology. For example, in El Salvador you have to travel like 15 miles to have access to a computer with Internet. On the other hand, demographic differences among people can influence their access to technology because sometimes people who are 65 and older don’t have a reason to get a computer with Internet. Younger people have plenty of reasons to have access to the Internet like the social networks and online classes...

...During these are economic times in the United States, inventors are trying to find ways to make everyday things that are used more efficient and cheaper for citizens to use. They focused on the car when fuel prices were sky high but when the prices dropped many of them lost their focus on developments of alternative fuel. The problem is they need to continue this focus because natural resources are growing more limited everyday. The thing is that other countries are already using an alternative fuel that is cheaper and found in things we throw out everyday. Methane is a fueling gas that other countries and ours have known for some time that can fuel a car and other operating systems. Methane is a natural combustible gas. There is two ways that it can be made. We can get it from the Earth’s crust like we do for other natural gases or we can get it from waste sludge and biological waste like chicken and pig manure or from landfills. Using methane to operate machinery or a car would reduce the greenhouse gases by 25 percent because it uses less carbon dioxide. Methane is a dry gas so it does not dilute the engine oil making the engine oil last almost for the life of the car. This is because the combustion of methane is around 97 percent compared to gasoline being 27 percent. The rest of the gasoline (73 percent) goes out the exhaust and pollutes the air and releases carbon dioxide. With methane the exhaust will contain a little of water and the rest carbon dioxide. ...

Although the product is not as useful for consumers, it is still a need amongst transportation. Many individuals need the gasoline as a way of transportation to work, school, doctor’s appointments etc. Aside from consumers, the product is a need for exports in the United States economy. There have been occurrences that have changed the demand of gasoline among consumers although the supply remained the same. Occurrences that have changed the demand of the product include the decline in car fleet, less driving among individuals, more fuel-efficient cars, the decline in registered vehicles, decline in new car sales, and the number of Americans living in urban areas (Larson, 2013). With less car fleets, there is less fuel to purchase for company transportation, and with more cars...

...is easy for them to walk outside and see a handful of inefficient gasoline burning cars or trucks. Seeing this raises the question: Why do they not produce more electric cars? The truth is, electric cars are not the key to saving the environment. Are Electric Cars Helping the Environment? Global warming has become a large concern in today’s world. Most uneducated people love to point fingers at the auto industries. There is so much banter about producing inefficient gasoline burning vehicles. These people feel that since some of these production cars are getting a few less miles per gallon, that they are the main pollutant. The factory still needs its energy from somewhere, like a power plant. Electric cars still need to be built in a factory. That factory will have to receive electricity from a power plant. Many of these factories and power plants are the main polluters. Mainly because they burn coal, which is an environmental disaster. However, coal is a very efficient fuel. By knowing the facts it is easy to tell that electric cars are still polluting, making a miniscule impact, and are basically not even that great of a car. Electric vehicles seem to be today’s key for cutting back on emissions. At first thought, it makes sense. But really getting into the nitty gritty , it is not the right way to go. There are even instance where electric cars have a greater impact than gasoline cars (Bomford). The impact begins with the raw materials needed and...

...el Tilapia Oreochromis niloticus Scales as a source of BIOFUEL Rsearcher: Jelyne Daryl F. Romero Background of the Study Fuels are substance that give off heat when they burn. Fuel provides our world energy use for heating, cooking, powering ships, cars, and machines and electricity. High prices of gasoline pose a problem to many people. Higher energy costs are flowing down into the costs of other products that we buy. And most people are affected especially the poor people. On the other hand, using the scales of Tilapia as a good source of BIOFUEL, in one way or another, will add to demand for said palm. The use and promotion of BIOFUEL in the country could be a “win-win solution” for both the people and the environment as the world is currently facing a phenomenon called global warming. The use of BIOFUEL will also unlock the country’s dependence on fossil fuels which price depends on the international market. Both Biodiesel and Ethanol are clean, grow-your-own fuels that can be made onsite in villages or local communities from renewable, locally available resources, for the most part using simple equipment that a local workshop can make and maintain. These fuels are among a wide range sustainable local energy options. Others are methane (biogas) digesters that run livestock, crop, and food wastes into cooking and heating gas, charcoal and fuel wood (good fuels unless over harvesting destroys...

...Paradigm Shifts Today’s cars technology are on the rises. For so many years, cars have been part of ours everyday lives. We uses cars to get from one place to another within the city and out of towns. Apparently, cars could save us lot of times through traveling. Cars had been upgraded and improved ever since. Like nowadays, we now have a driverless car which still waiting for approval from the government. What will happen in the next 20 years from now, if our cars technology are improving much more than what we actually have? I thinks that if we continue with the technology that we have now, we'll be in greater advance in the next 20 years or so. The futures cars will be flying in the air like in the movies called (“Back To The Future” and “The Fifth Element”). Ours future cars most likely be able to flow in midair by having magnet on the bottom of the cars and the roads should be made of magnet with the opposite side of magnetism, which will forces and lifts up the car in midair by the magnet from the car and the road. The Car should have a fan in the back which will be powered by electricity battery system motor. While the motor is being turn on, it will generate the power and move the car forward or backward in midair (kind of like the hovercraft designed by Christopher Cockerell back in 1955). The only different is that the car will be in midair but not in water or land. The first impact is on rules and regulations of traffic. The cars are no longer using the roads...

...fossil fuels for several reasons. Cellulosic ethanol is a completely renewable resource, unlike fossil fuels, and can be converted from plants, wood clippings and tree branches, even human waste in some cases (Khemani, 2008). The primary source of cellulosic ethanol is from tree harvesting and leftovers from paper mills. All of these resources can and are replaced or produced daily. The use of human waste and garbage would also alleviate some of the pollution problems of the world. There are other sources of energy that are more popular or have gotten more attention in the last few years such as wind and solar power. Wind power is feasible for farmland because it only requires a small portion of land and does not interfere with the everyday on goings of the farm; it is not feasible as a source of energy for the mass populous. There is also the fact that the wind isn’t constantly blowing to turn the wind turbine, which in itself creates a problem. Solar energy has the same drawbacks. It can be used to power a home but it cannot feasible be used on a large city or even a small town as the cost to the consumer would be too high for the average consumer to accept as 1 MW output would cost as much as 10 MW by way of coal. (Deodhar, 2011) While there are alternatives on a smaller...

...(Nebraska Corn Board). Corn growers rely upon dependable and cost-effective transportation. Even though major freeways surround Stockton, the distance between Nebraska and California is about 1,430 miles away from each other, which has a negative cost advantage for transportation of corn with trucks because their functions are primarily based on shorter distances. Instead, railroads have better cost advantages because they operate to move longer distances and more raw materials than trucks. An example of an ideal railroad to transport corn from Nebraska to Stockton, California is Union Pacific, which covers “23 states in the western two-thirds of the United States” (UP). Because ethanol reduces the need for high-octane, petroleum-based gasoline components, and expensive imports, it saves consumers money at the gas pump....

...ec5.4 Health & Safety The addition of electric drive and large battery packs introduces several new potential hazards to the transit bus workplace. These hazards include electric shock, chemical burn, and explosion due to hydrogen build-up. All three hazards can be managed through a variety of design, monitoring, operational and maintenance procedures. Standards have been developed through National Electric Code (NEC), Federal Transit Authority (FTA), National Highway Safety Transportation Administration (NHSTA), Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), and others. Committees are working on several areas where holes exist in the standards.2 5.4.1 Electrical Shock There is a danger of electrical shock with any motor vehicle should a mechanic or passenger come into contact with a live circuit under normal or fault conditions. With hybrid-electric buses, contact can come from electricity during battery charging (AC current) or discharging (DC current). If contact is made, the extent of injury will depend on the size, duration, frequency, and wave shape of the current. Conventional diesel buses make use of 12/24vDC and 220/240vAC. Hybrid drive buses operate at levels of power up to 400vDC and 600 amps. However, the risk of electrical shock can be mitigated through proper engineering, labelling, and safe maintenance practices. SAE standards have been developed to minimize electrical hazards associated with the design and manufacture of electric and hybrid-electric vehicles....

The further you are from the gulf area, the more likely you are to find yourself paying more at the pump. It is a common occurrence to be driving down the road and to see that gas prices vary significantly from station to station. Competition between gas stations is a source of price variance. Some stations are even sending employees to scout the competition each day. (Davis, 2007) As oil production ramps up and summer driving season ramps down, prices is already beginning to drop. Average gas prices dropped to around $2.62 a gallon this week after reaching $3.04 last month. As consumer pumps gasoline at a gas station in...

...Granular Bunge is a corporation involved with the world’s commodities market; which is comprised of many different elements including sugar, wheat, soybeans and grains. Although diverse, commodities in this day and age lead to feeding the public and uniquely becoming a source of energy. Commodities may be manufactured to create Ethanol and Biofuels hence this practice has never been done; yet this opportunity if done efficiently and effectively. At inception founded in 1818 within Amsterdam to merchandize grains and imports from Dutch colonies Bunge was the primary importer and distributor. Bunge on a global marketplace platform was and is a proprietor in a world growing at a 21% global growth. In acquiring certain entities for example, Cereol and Chai Tai and to meet global consumer demands, “Meat demand increases steeply when per capita GDP of a nation is under $5,000. Therefore, the growth of GDP in developing nations substantially increases feed requirements”; Bunge is positioning with growth as a leading force to be reckoned with. The current world economy is currently going thru a transformation whereby raw commodities are being transformed and utilized as biofuels to combat the changing world landscape with the growing middle class in China and India. Biofuels are a wide range of fuels which are in some way derived from biomass. The term covers solid biomass, liquid fuels and various biogases. Biofuels are gaining increased public and scientific attention, driven...

...Ethanol: Is It Really the Best Option Ethanol based gasoline vehicles are becoming more and more popular, but is ethanol gasoline better than regular petroleum gasoline? Ethanol, also known as ethyl alcohol, can be an effective motor fuel, and most of the gasoline in the US contains some ethanol (Ethanol As a Transportation Fuel). Many people everywhere are praising ethanol gasoline because it can reduce pollution, and increase engine performance. There are some facts that are not being recognized, and these facts should be brought to light. The price of corn and food products made from corn will increase from the higher demand of corn and vehicles have to use one-third more ethanol than regular gas. Ethanol gas in the end will end up costing more than petroleum gas being used now. Ethanol gas as an alternative to gas will mean that the demand for corn will become greater and greater. The use of ethanol in motor fuel has increased for years an average of twenty-five percent per year (Ethanol Cost And Environmental Factors). This year America will use 5 billion bushels of corn which will produce about 14 billion gallons of ethanol (Helman). So will farmers be able to grow the amount of corn needed for the production of ethanol gasoline and food demand? The increase in corn crops in the Midwest has added to size of the dead zone in the Gulf Coast (Miller). What if the country was to experience another serious drought, or major flood? A different method of creating ethanol would...
