Will we get some common sense now?

31 Days of oil spewing into the Gulf of Mexico and oil is threatening the Gulf Stream. So we are again facing dangers from oil drilling. Kuwait a few years back, The Exxon Valdez in Prince William Sound Sound AK, and now this major leak! So when will we as a species learn that we need to find an alternative? When we have a silent spring because we have killed our biosphere? Three major issues that i have written about on this which I will share with my friends on Facebook hoping they will share and this will go out to millions. People need to think about it and actually do something about it.
There are alternatives to fossil fuels and we can start implementing programs to get those in the mainstream. On the news tonight the are reopening the NUMMI plant in Fremont by Tesla:

Where they want to build a completely electric car. They also want to get the price down to allow it to be more mainstream of a vehicle.
Biodiesel is yet again another option. Vegetable oil can be used straight from the fryer after being filtered with very few modifications to your vehicle. We need to do something to change our dependence on fossil fuels.
