=**This will be the home for your web quest on Alternative Energy.**=

Biodiesel= 8.2 cents per mile Electric= 5.9 cents per mile Propane= 6.7 cents per mile Hydrogen= 5.8 cents per mile Ethanol= 8.7 cents per mile Hybrid= 6.3 cents per mile - Brian Liepinis
 * What are typical costs per mile for each fuel source?**

Hybrid cars are being used most commonly because they are cheaper to fuel. With gas prices right now at two dollars and eightynine cents, hybrids are the way to go. - Brian Liepinis
 * With the price of gasoline at an high, what other forms of alternative energy are being used for transportation?**

Electric is being used in hybrid cars. They use less gas and more electric. As they go down hills, they charge up with electric. So when they go up a hill, the electric power will go into play to help decrease the amount of gas used. Brian Landis

support it? I think that hydrogeon will be the form of alternative energy that will be the most utilized in the future because it is cheap and produces absolutely zero emissions. - Brian Liepinis
 * What form of alternate energy do you think will be the most utilized in the future? State your answer and give sufficient facts to

In the future I think that we are going to switch to hydrogen power. I believe this because hydrogen is cheap to produce and burns efficiently. This is why I think hydrogen will be utilized more in the future.** matthew weiler

I think Solar power will be the most utilized. It captures the energy from the sun and converts it into electricity. Peaple used to complain that it was to costly, but now the price of it is droping. It will eventually be a better envestment then any other sorces of power. Brian Landis
