Our new President – Barak Obama orders federal regulators today to move quickly on an application by California and 13 other states to set stricter automobile emission regulations and better fuel efficiency standards.
As the California emissions law is being put to action, Mr. Obama will instruct the Transportation Department to act quickly to finalize interim nationwide regulations requiring the automobile industry to increase fuel efficiency standards, as well as ordering federal departments and agencies to discover new ways to save energy and be more environmentally friendly.
The California emissions law will require automakers to reduce emissions by almost a third by 2016. As a consequence, American cars and light truck fleet will see an increase in fuel efficiency from the current average of 27 mpg to roughly 35 miles per gallon.
Aside from improving our air quality, reducing our dependancy on foreign oil and pushing our technology to the limit, here’s how Obama’s environmental and energy elements of his economic plan will change your life:
-
It will double renewable energy generating capacity over three years, which would be enough to power six million American homes.
-
It will pay for 3,000 miles of new or modernized transmission lines as part of a new national electric grid plus 40 million “smart meters,”
- It will refurbish two million homes and 75 percent of federal building space to better guard against the weather and conserve enough energy, which will retuls in –
-
It will save low-income families $350 a year and the federal government $2 billion a year.
Due to the economic recession many people will not be able to buy new fuel efficient and low emissions vehicle. How can you prepare your car the the strict emission laws that are coming?

While corporate America suffers, the best home-built businesses thrive.
Indeed, more than half of all U.S. businesses are now run from kitchen tables, extra bedrooms, basements and garages. Home-based businesses make a $530 billion contribution to the nation’s economy each year.
And for many Americans, starting up at home has become a necessity. What appeared to be simply another economic downturn a year ago has devolved into a far more dire situation. Major economic giants, including Lehman Bros. (LEHMQ, news, msgs), American International Group (AIG, news, msgs) and General Motors (GM, news, msgs), have shown their vulnerability. As corporate titans lay people off by the thousands, many Americans are being forced to find new ways to make a living.
Their criteria? Inexpensive to start. Immediate results.
Enter home-based businesses. Running your own show from home typically requires little more than a skill set and a passion. It has become the stepping-off point for many a newbie entrepreneur.
A recent Wells Fargo study indicated that the average amount of capital required to start a business is approximately $10,000. When you consider that that statistic includes capital-intensive, brick-and-mortar startups, you realize that some home-based businesses can be started on a few hundred dollars.
A Boom Among Boomers
In terms of who is being drawn to home-based business, it’s a mix of men and women, young and old. But one group that seems particularly drawn to starting up is the baby-boom generation.. This group is clearly leveraging skills accumulated during corporate careers and previous entrepreneurial adventures. They’re realizing that they can no longer count on long-term corporate careers.
Adding additional impetus, boomers have watched their retirement savings wither with Wall Street, forcing them to figure out ways to replenish their coffers. That helps make the income generated from a home-based business — whether primary or supplemental — incredibly appealing to boomers.
Let’s talk about passion
But as compelling as the income may be, at the center of every home-based business is one driving force: passion.
The opportunity to do what you love, to have proximity to family and pets and the comforts of home while conducting meaningful work, still plays the starring role. Running a business built around a passion adds meaning and direction in life, a welcome antidote to these confusing and disenfranchising times.
For some, this passion is expressed by going green. They use their business to influence other business owners and in so doing is creating a better world for the next generation.
The startup world shows no signs of slowing down. Whether people join to combat a tough economy, as an alternative to the corporate life or to simply follow their passions, startups are alive and well. Unlike many of the big enterprises out there today, a great number of home-based ventures are still open for business and truly thriving.
Your For Earth represents an incredible and proven opportunity to enjoy all of these benefits. Think about all of the people you know that have a need to earn extra money and would like to positively impact future generations. Invite them to take a look at the Ethos ForEarth business model
