How are alternative fuels becoming more of an everyday source?
We are slowly but surley moving away from foreign oil and creating more cleaner energy here. We are discovering more abundant fuel sources than coal and oil.
Im doing this research to help people understand that we have other fuel sources other than forign oil and we are now greatly supporting it. There are many other fuel sources like Wind, Hydrogen, Water, and Solar. We dont need to import energy we have all we need and much more. We need to harness these resources and become less dependent on forigners. An energy independent U.S. is something most Americans want.

"Forty
nine percent of Americansages 18 to 29 have tattoos" Tattoo Crazy, this is an astonish fact in America. I grew up not carrying much for tatto's. people who had them I believed were garbage as did the author of Tattoo Crazy thought as well. I grew just like the author did. Now I just like the author have a personal tattoo. I also belive that "for me, tatooing is an art form in which I can express myself along with a form of remembrance and strength". A tattoo is suppose to be meaningful to the person it is on, if not than it is not a true tat but just meaningless ink. I do belive that even though tattoos are personal such as religion it should not be on your face or some vulgar distranting place. Tattoos are personal so keep them personal is my phlisophy. I can relate to " remembering during my senior year of high school noticing that once someone turned 18 they would be showing everyone his or her new tattoo". This was a bit like my school. A tattoo once again is personal and society will always be judgmental on people with tattoos.Now to Starbucks coffee. Yes I do love coffee, I did not care for this article in any fashion. I talk to my father anywhere, it doesn't matter on the coffee shop. Starbucks to me is just overpriced beans. Yet I do like Starbucks I could drink any coffee and be just as happy. Yes Starbucks is usually the most convient coffee shop where ever I might be, I do not hunt for them. I believe that this quote however true it might be is not the true intent, that " Another positive aspect of this global company is the coffee comes from third world countries that profit from business that Strarbucks gives them". I dont believe the author understands that 3rd world countries is the cheapest place to get raw resources and production like coffee beans. Yes Starbucks provides business to these countries, it is not for them but for themselves that they do this. Labor is cheapiest in these countries and regulations are easy to abide or even break.
I enjoyed both reading selections and hope you enjoy my blog
