Peak Oil. The End Of Cheap Oil.
 
Peak Oil, post-industrial world.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DMQd5nGEkr4

It's simple, after the world reaches peak oil production, demand will outstrip supply. Things will change.
If you google "PEAK OIL" you'll get thousands of hits, a lot of them total loonies. It's the scientists and geologists that support this theory that make you think there might be something in it.

Lucky for us a SV650 is pretty cheap to run, but not when fuel is a fiver a litre.

The survivalists are pleased...

Thing is as the price goes up more supplies become financially viable, the oil sands in Canada, the Falklands (That's why there was a war!) etc.

It's more about the end of cheap oil, that's what fuels the constant economic growth that most economies are based on.

Don't sell the car, just use it to carry seeds and gardening tools. Grow some of your own food, get out of debt and buy a really warm sleeping bag.

So, what'll it take to make my SV run on ethanol? I can supply the ethanol, and to a high degree of purity.....

Dunno really, ethanol is made from corn mostly, would you rather eat or drive?
