Q & A 
4. Need America’s oil addiction is out of hand.  
We consume 10 million barrels of oil every day.
Middle-East war is a direct result.
Unnecessary loss of life:  3,000 American soldiers killed and 20,000 wounded.
Fuel prices are higher than ever. 
5. Solution: Fischer-Tropsch Technology A means of synthesizing transportation fuel from coal.
America is rich in coal.
Without dependency on foreign oil, our part in the Middle-East war will end.
FT diesel burns cleaner than conventional diesel.
 
6. Fischer-Tropsch Process Well 
7. Domestic Impact “Montana could supply the entire United States with its aviation, gas, and diesel fuel for 40 years without creating environmental damage.” (Schweitzer).
Gasoline could be produced for $1 per gallon.
Our money stays in our country. 
8. FT Diesel Emissions Compared to Conventional Diesel
