Opinion letter to the editor of the Bangkok Post Newspaper

Dear Editor,
More people should use the alternative fuels such as gasohol, biodiesel for their vehicles instead of petroluem fuels. Petroleum fuels or fossil fuels or conventional fuels are non-renewable resources which are removed from the Earth to provide humans with foods, cloths, houses and other things to continually upgrade the standard of living. However, there are increasing of demands for petroleum fuels due to the growth of world's population and expansion of industrial sectors, meanwhile the supply is decreasing and will be depleted in the future. It is time to reduce fossil fuels consumption to save such resources, and consequently there are many efforts to seek other energy sources. The renewable resource derived from agricultural products such as sugar can, corn, cassava and palm oil is one of the best choices suitable for our country. These agricultural products are needed to produce the various grades of the alternative fuels available in all gas stations. Moreover, the alternative fuels offer a number of benefits. One of the most distinct advantages is that alternative fuel burns a lot cleaner than normal petroluem oil, resulting to lesser environmental pollution. To replace the conventional fuels with the sustainable energy sources, people ought to use the alternative fuels for their transports.
