The vision of an energy indendent Planet Earth may seem delusional to some people. The idea of our world powered by wind turbines and photovaltic power stations is quite overwhelming to the mind, admittedly. Questions emerge - doubts really. How would we get there? Where do even start? Where would all the money come from? Could I contribute somehow? Ironically, the answers to these questions and others may lie at the tip of your fingers, even as we speak! Networking is an incredibly powerful tool, especially among like minds. When powerful minds come together in unison, there is nothing that cannot be achieved, quite frankly. Through Too Step, a global coalition can begin to form. Upon form

Grassoline: Biofuels Beyond Corn By now it ought to be clear that the U.S. must get off oil. We can no longer afford the dangers that our dependence on petroleum poses for our national security, our economic security or our environmental security. Yet civilization is not about to stop moving, and so we must invent a new way to power the world’s transportation fleet. Cellulosic biofuels—liquid fuels made from inedible parts of plants—offer the most environmentally attractive and technologically feasible near-term alternative to oil. Biofuels can be made from anything that is, or ever was, a plant. First-generation biofuels derive from edible biomass, primarily corn and soybeans (in the U.S.)
