FREE TAXI PROJECT:

IN THE TRUCKEE/ NORTH LAKE TAHOE AREA DRUNKEN DRIVING IS A HUGE PROBLEM. IT IS A TERRIBLE THING TO LOSE A LOVED ONE OR SUFFER REPERCUSSIONS SUCH AS JAIL TIME AND FINES FOR BREAKING THE LAW. ECO-TAXI IS CURRENTLY WORKING ON SECURING FUNDING TO BE ABLE TO PROVIDE FREE TRANSPORTATION HOME FOR PEOPLE THAT HAVE HAD TOO MUCH TO DRINK SO THERE IS NO NEED TO DRIVE DRUNK. FOR INFORMATION OR TO HELP THIS PROJECT FEEL FREE TO CONTACT US.

ALGEA IS THE NEW VEGETABLE OIL:

ALGEA IS THE FUTURE OF RENEWABLE BIOFUEL. ALGEA IS A SINGLE CELLED ORGANISM THAT NEEDS ONLY LIGHT, WATER, AND CO2 TO SURVIVE. THESE TINY PLANTS PRODUCE UP TO 100 TIMES THE AMOUNT OF OIl AS CONVENTIONAL CROPS SUCH AS CORN OR SOYBEANS. ALGEA REPRODUCES EVERY SIX MINUTES AND CAN GROW IN WASTE OR SALTWATER ON NONARABLE LAND. ALGEA NEEDS ONLY CO2 AND SUNLIGHT TO THRIVE. COMPARED TO CONENTIONAL MEANS OF PRODUCING BIOFUELS ALGEA IS IMMENSLY SUPPERIOR. IT PRODUCES FAR GREATER YEILDS IN A MUCH SHORTER TIME, CAN BE GROWN WITH WASTE WATER AND ON WASTE LANDS SO IT DOES NOT TAKE UP OUR WATER SUPPLY OR FARMLANDS AND DOES NOT DETRACT FROM OUR FOOD SUPPLY. ALGEA CAN ACTUALLY BE USED FOR FEEDING LIVESTOCK AS WELL AS MAKING ETHANOL AND BIODIESEL. ECO TAXI IS A STRONG ADVOCATE OF ALGAL BIOFUELS AND WILL BE HELPING WITH RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT OF THEM. CONTACT US TO LEARN MORE.

TRUCKEE COMMUNITY RENEWABLE FUEL PROGRAM:

WE ARE CURRENTLY SIGNING CONTRACTS WITH LOCAL RESTAURANTS TO COLLECT THEIR WASTE VEGETABLE OIL. WE WILL THEN RECYCLE THIS OIL BACK INTO THE COMMUNITY IN THE FORM OF CLEAN VEGETABLE OIL FOR THOSE WITH CONVERTED DIESEL VEHICLES OR AS FEEDSTOCK FOR BIODIESEL PRODUCTION. THE GOAL IS USE COMMUNITY WASTE TO PROVIDE CLEAN ENERGY FOR THE COMMUNITY. CONTACT US IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN GETTING INVOLVED
