Relacionado con esto y esto que vengo diciendo por acá, la nueva ley de energía que se aprobó en EEUU no parece ser una buena idea:

• The incandescent light will be phased out of existence beginning in 2012.
• Average fuel economy for new vehicles will move from the current 25.0 MPG to 35.0 by 2020 — a standard that only the Toyota Prius and Honda Civic hybrids currently meet.
• New government mandates and subsidies will push the domestic ethanol industry to some 36 billion gallons in sales by 2020. (This will actually lessen fuel efficiency because ethanol gets considerably worse mileage than gasoline.)
• The move to more biofuels will continue to increase food prices as farmland is reallocated to the production of energy stocks.

  1. Me ganaste de mano. Leí lo de las bombitas hoy. Quizás sea un privilegio que por un tiempo más tengamos en Argentina las old faithful lightbulbs.

    El Global Warming lobby ya empieza a jodernos la vida, ya no son sólo palabras.

    Este gente si no se mete en la vida de los demás, no duerme.

    Perdón, Ron Paul.
