Clean Gas

Don't blame "big oil" this time when gas prices go up next summer. Blame your elected officials and the global warming, chicken little crowd.

"Starting next summer, Southwest Ohio motorists will pay a little extra at the pump under a state plan to require a cleaner gasoline to be sold in Cincinnati, Dayton and surrounding areas.

The proposal awaiting federal approval is meant to curb ozone pollution in the region. The cleaner gas would only be sold during the summer and would emit fewer vapors that trigger ozone problems. It would replace biennial E-check tests, which ended locally in 2005."
