Thank you all for your patience regarding this site.  Originally, this site was intended to be a cooperative effort with the Sacramento Biofuels Network, but that is no longer the case.  Therefore I am looking for new partners to keep the Sacramento Valley biofuels community up-to-date with local events and vendors.  If you are interested in helping out, please do let me know.  If you are looking to get something specific out of this site, please respond to the poll on the right side of the home page so that I can try to provide you with what you are looking for.  In the meantime, I will be re-working the structure of this site to make it easier to find information.

The Sacramento Biofuels Network blog site can still be found at www.sacbiofuels.org.

Send me a note at mike @ sacbiofuels.com if you have any questions, suggestions, or information you'd like to contribute.

Thanks!
Mike

There certainly is a great deal going on in the motorsports community with respect to Diesel technology.  I find motorsports to be a great venue for proving new technologies, and lately modern Diesel technology has been in racing news more and more often.  The combination of the Diesel's durability and relatively low fuel consumption make it particularly ideal for long distance competitions such as round-the-clock racing.  I realize this does not entirely have to do with biofuels (nor with Sacramento area activities), but any advances in Diesel technologies will definitely have a positive impact on biodiesel use.

Very interesting!  Google now has 2 pages worth of video clips (from places such as CNN, Fox, C-SPAN) talking about peak oil... Some of the clips are very enlightening...

 I've added the search link to the SacBioFuels Links page so that you can search any time and watch the list of video clips grow...

Saw an advertisement by the Chevron Oil Company that took me by surprise... they said that "the era of easy oil is over" and called upon the readers to join in on the discussions on energy conservation, alternatives to fossil fuels, and energy policies, among other things.  They've set up a web site for these discussions at willyoujoinus.com. 

A very nice idea, but rather than just talk about what we're going to do, the Sacramento BioFuels Network is already doing something about it.  We're already providing the means for ordinary folks like you to make your own fuel from renewable sources, which can be made completely independent of any fossil fuel resources.  There's certainly nothing wrong with talking about it, but don't you want to also DO something about it too?  If you haven't already, please join us to find out how!
