Bicycle to Save Money and Fuel

Posted by Rolf Joho on December 11th, 2009 filed in Global Warming

If you live within bicycle commuting distance to your work, biking has several advantages to offer. Why not consider commuting by bicycle. Even if you choose a bike as you way of commuting on the nicest days of the year, you can do your part in reducing our dependence of petroleum products and reducing pollution.

Biking to work is a great way to get exercise. Why should you pay to go to the gym and ride a stationary bike when you could get a better workout free by just biking to work? If you fear that the distance is too far, try commuting using the bus and your bike. This works well for persons that live a distance from the bus stop or work away from the closest stop.

Many city buses now cater to bicycle commuters so that you are able to ride the bus for part of the commute and ride your bike the rest of the way to wok. This option may work if you want to be able to bike one way to or from work.

If you plan to bike to work, there will need to be some preparation that you make. You will want to have a way to carry your gear that is needed for work and anything you pick up that needs to be brought home. Messenger bags are one great option. If you have a laptop that you need to carry back and forth to work, a laptop messenger bag can offer a waterproof option that also protects your computer from and scrapes or scratches.

You may also want to pick up a few extra messenger bags for the bike. They are nice for spur of the moment purchases such as sale digital cameras or transporting items you will need when you get home such as ATV parts.

As we spend more time on our planet we realize that resources are limited. There is no endless supply of gasoline available. We all need to do our part in conservation of natural resources for the generations that will follow.

Additionally, biking to work is a good way to save our money. Biking one day a week saves 20 percent of our fuel used for commuting. Three days per week saves 60 percent and every day saves 100 percent of the money we pay for fuel.

Climate of Corruption: Politics and Power Behind The Global Warming HoaxNew revelations demonstrate how politics and powerful special-interest agendas have warped the most important scientific debate of the 21st century.

Melting glaciers, suffering polar bears, rising oceans—these are just a few of the climate change crisis myths debunked by noted aerospace expert Larry Bell in this explosive new book. With meticulous research, Bell deflates these and other climate misconceptions with perceptive analysis, humor, and the most recent scientific data.

Written for the laymen, yet in-depth enough for the specialist, this book digs deep into the natural and political aspects of the climate change debate, answering fundamental questions that reveal the all-too-human origins of “scientific” inquiry. Why and how are some of the world’s most prestigious scientific institutions cashing in on the debate? Who stand to benefit most by promoting public climate change alarmism? What true political and financial purposes are served by the vilification of carbon dioxide? How do climate deceptions promote grossly exaggerated claims for non-fossil alternative energy capacities and advance blatant global wealth redistribution goals?

With its devastating portrayal of scientific and government establishments run amok, this book is an invaluable addition to the tremendously popular literature attacking the scientific status quo. Climate of Corruption will bring welcome relief to all those who are fed up with climate crisis insanity.

Global Warming - Emerging Science and Understanding

The Greatest Hoax: How the Global Warming Conspiracy Threatens Your FutureAmericans are over-regulated and over-taxed. When regulation escalates, the result is an increase in regulators. In other words, bigger government is required to enforce the greater degree of regulation. Bigger government means bigger budgets and higher taxes. More simply doesn't mean better. A perfect example is the entire global warming, climate-change issue, which is an effort to dramatically and hugely increase regulation of each of our lives and business, and to raise our cost of living and taxes. In The Greatest Hoax, Senator James Inhofe will reveal the reasons behind those perpetuating the Hoax of global warming, who is benefitting from the general acceptance of the Hoax and why the premise statements are blatantly and categorically false.

Dire Predictions: Understanding Global Warming - The Illustrated Guide to the Findings of the IPCCThe Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has been issuing the essential facts and figures on climate change for nearly two decades. But the hundreds of pages of scientific evidence quoted for accuracy by the media and scientists alike, remain inscrutable to the general public who may still question the validity of climate change.

Esteemed climate scientists Michael E. Mann and Lee R. Kump, have partnered with DK Publishing to present Dire Predictions-an important book in this time of global need. Dire Predictions presents the information documented by the IPCC in an illustrated, visually-stunning, and undeniably powerful way to the lay reader. The scientific findings that provide validity to the implications of climate change are presented in clear-cut graphic elements, striking images, and understandable analogies.

Unstoppable Global Warming: Every 1,500 Years, Updated and Expanded EditionSinger and Avery present—in popular language supported by in-depth scientific evidence—the compelling concept that global temperatures have been rising mostly or entirely because of a natural cycle. Using historic data from two millennia of recorded history combined with the natural physical records found in ice cores, seabed sediment, cave stalagmites, and tree rings, Unstoppable Global Warming argues that the 1,500 year solar-driven cycle that has always controlled the earth's climate remains the driving force in the current warming trend.

Trillions of dollars spent on reducing fossil fuel use would have no effect on today's rising temperatures. The public policy key, Singer and Avery propose, is adaptation, not fruitless attempts at prevention. Further, they offer convincing evidence that civilization's most successful eras have coincided with the cycle's warmest peaks. With the added benefit of modern technology, humanity can not only survive global climate change, but thrive.
