Facts About Hybrid Cars
There are a number of myths and misrepresentations about hybrid cars but there are also a number of clear facts. Certain hybrid cars produce a significant amount less pollutants than conventional cars although the amount depends on the model.

The cost of hybrid cars can be high initially but the truth about it is that it is an investment as the parts have warranties that provide free replacements. They keep their value as they are so much in demand. They tend to last longer than conventional gasoline cars and do not require more maintenance than other cars.

Ethanol Explosion! How to Profit ...
Jupiter, FL (PRWeb) January 10, 2007 -- Worldwide ethanol production has nearly doubled in five years ... the surge in volume has triggered the development of new, more efficient technologies ... and a new mega-industry has been born.
According to Dr. Martin Weiss, "Right now, the only country with cars running on pure ethanol is Brazil. But a mix of ethanol and gasoline is used in the U.S., the European Union, Mexico, India, Argentina, Columbia and, now, Japan."
Here are some countries that are riding this trend:
• Brazil. Overall, investments in Brazil's ethanol industry are surging. In 2005, they were about $6 billion, including new plants, acquisitions and expansions. In 2006, they've surged to nearly $10 billion. And by 2010, even if there's a recession in the U.S., they should hit at least $15 billion.
• United States. The cautious U.S. Department of Energy predicts that ethanol could put a 30 percent dent in America's gasoline consumption by 2030. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has proposed a doubling of the amount of ethanol required by law to be blended into gasoline by 2012.
• Japan. Prime Minister Shinzo Abe of Japan plans to increase consumption of biofuel for transportation to 3.15 million barrels by the end of 2010. He will boost the ethanol content of regular gasoline to as much as 10 percent. And as a result, Japan's purchases of ethanol will rise to as much as 44 million barrels per year.
• Australia. With voluntary goals in place, Australia is aiming to blend up to 10 percent ethanol by 2010 or sooner.
• Canada. Our neighbors to the north have provided tax benefits for ethanol since 1992, while various Canadian provinces have similar mandates.
• Argentina requires use of 5% ethanol blends over the next five years.
• India mandates 5 percent ethanol in all gasoline.
• Indonesia aims for 10 percent biofuel use.
How can investors take advantageous of this powerful trend?
Dr. Weiss recommends several companies in his article as well as a leading country ETFs. He advises, "Brazil's stock market is already anticipating this trend. That's why the iShares MCSI Brazil Index (EWZ) recently challenged the highs it made last year, and after a mild correction last week, could easily exceed them.
He adds, "For the world, it's a solution. For investors, it's an opportunity."
