Oscars Go Green!
Many celebrities chose to show off their green philosophies by buying and driving electric cars to the Oscars this year. This year’s academy awards were a showcase of these vehicles as they pulled up to the red carpet. Leonardo DiCaprio, Penelope Cruz, Forest Whittaker, Nicole Kidman, Kirsten Dunst, Ryan Gosling, Gwyneth Paltrow, Al and Tipper Gore, Melissa Etheridge, Davis Guggenheim and Elisabeth Shue, Larry and Laurie David, Lawrence Bender, Scott Z. Burns, and Lesley Chilcott were just a few of the celebrities who chose to show their green color!
All the media and attention is clearly pushing the tide hard and strong to our electric car future!
Since “Vehicles and buildings are two of the biggest contributors to global warming pollution,” said Matt Petersen, President of Global Green USA, we are ensuring Eagle Mountain customers minimze their impact on the environment with responsible mechanical designs.

President Bush gets plugged in... to fuel economy:
WASHINGTON - Last week President Bush inspected two electric cars on the White House south lawn as he begins to focus on alternative fuels and better fuel consumption.
Massachusetts-based A123, demonstrated technology to transform hybrids like a Prius or Ford Escape into plug-ins that can be recharged on regular household current.
"Is this real?" Bush asked A123 CEO Dave Vieau.
"It's real," Vieau responded.
President Bush stated "Americans ought to feel optimistic about our future. We're going to be driving our cars using all kinds of different fuels other than gasoline, and using batteries that will be able to be recharged in vehicles," Bush said, after meeting with people who believe "there is a market developing for automobiles that will use high technology batteries to -- for people to be able to motor back and forth from work."
He said his ambitious fuel-conservation goal, laid out at January's State of the Union address, was realistic.
"I firmly believe that the goal I laid out, that Americans will use 20 percent less gasoline over the next 10 years is going to be achieved, and here's living proof of how we're going to get there," he said, referring to the battery-operated vehicles.
This week, the Bush Administration is expected to make a full-court press to win congressional approval to raise corporate average fuel economy standards by an average of 4 percent annually starting in September 2009 for passenger cars and in 2011 for light duty trucks. The standards for passenger cars haven't been raised since 1985, while a much smaller increase for light trucks adopted last year will cost automakers $6.2 billion, the administration said.
