Introduction
Who really enjoys spending their hard earned dollar at the pump? I personally would rather spend that money on other things such as performance parts for my vehicle. This may not be everyone’s choice but we all would rather spend our money on other things like maybe keeping up on the stack of bills or fixing the house and so on. It is just sickening to watch companies like Exxon make the profits they do in each term while we are stuck paying for their luxuries. Resembling the story from The New York Times,” Exxon Mobil, the largest American oil company and an active driller in new shale fields in the United States, Europe and Argentina, said its capital and exploration expenditures of $26.7 billion for the first nine months of the year represented a record.” Critics of the oil industries and fossil fuels find these numbers astonishing and questionable. We need to find an alternative to fossil fuels or at least an effective way to enhance our vehicles current efficiency. This is where I believe the invention of a hydrogen fuel generator will benefit us.
One may ask what exactly will we benefit from these systems and how do they work? Those questions are very valid and deserve attention when brought up during the examination of this topic. The systems may not be exactly plug and play for the uneducated car enthusiast, but with some help and guidance the systems can be installed by most comprehensive humans. To add to that, I should explain that the hydrogen injection helps with the performance and efficiency of gasoline and diesel engines by allowing for a complete burn of the gasoline in the cylinders thus resulting in less waist of fuel. Although I fully agree and understand the concepts of the many different enthusiasts, I would have to say it is important to realize that not everyone can afford the systems or do not have the knowledge to install one of the systems in their own vehicles, yet I do believe that this is the key to a fatter wallet and better fuel economy.
This is a pretty good sign of what kind of profits Exxon and other companies are making while we're screwed sitting at the pump watching our bank account balances decrease. However, it's not very discriptive or informative. How much of that money goes straight into the wallets of the fat, lazy, Bentley-driving, oil rig owners? I think that's something that you should explain. But past that, I think you have a very good way of transitioning into your point! I would be pretty interested if you went in to explain how exactly there is improved performance and efficiency.
ReplyDeleteI've never thought of this. Next time I'm sitting at the pump watching my tank fill up I will definitely be wishing I had a more efficient system in my car! It was easy for me to understand exactly what you are talking about, but you should try to go into more detail about why enhancing our vehicles may be better than an alternate type of fuel?
ReplyDeleteGood opening sentence, as a lot of people can relate to the gas prices. Good information, and it tells us exactly what you are writing about.
ReplyDeleteVery engaging, love your ideas. Its sick how much oil companies are price-gauging the consumer population. This sounds like an awesome alternative.
ReplyDeleteThe first few sentences of your first paragraph are really catchy, it caught my attention. I agree with Jake, go into detail about how much money we will be spending overall on the hydrogen fuel pump rather than on gas every couple weeks in the body of your paper. Im sure you were already on planning to do that, but your overall intro sounded good!
