Quick and easy Made in Canada solution to pollution
I've emailed this proposal to all of our political leaders with no response so I figured it was time to enlist some others to help put pressure on our politicians to affect change.
Dear Elected officials
I think we should take a page out of the European polution hand book. In Europe their regular gasoline has the same if not higher octane content as our Supreme gas. What this does is it takes less gas to travel further and puts less pollution into our atmosphere especially in and around our cities where smog has become a health risk due to the creation of micro climates and the density of pollutants being put into the atmosphere in such a small and confined area.
Now at first glance you might think that legislating the use of Supreme gas only will have a negative impact on our economy because of the higher cost of supreme gasolines. But I say the cost offset of no longer having to provide pumps tanks and infrastructure for Regular and mid grade gasolines would more than compensate for for the cost of the higher octane gasolines and they could be sold for the same price as regular gas is now sold. The higher milage from the higher octane gas would also more than help compensate for any higher cost if it actually does occur from such a measure.
By having only one high octane gas would also make it more economical for the smaller gas distributors thus promoting small business especially in our remote and rural areas where the olume of traffic and business doesn't warrant stocking more than one grade of gasoline.
This one simple step towards a made in Canada solution to pollution would immediately have a positive impact on reducing pollution and protecting the enviroment and curbing global warming without negatively impacting our economy.
This is a quick simple and easy solution to our growing pollution problem. Especially in our larger urban areas which have their own micro climates of smog and pollution due to the sheer number of polluters in such a small area.
Sincerely
