Carbon Fiber and cars
My mom has a hybrid car, and I really think that looking for new technology when it comes to cars is important! If you're going to buy a new car, why not buy a hybrid? I just came across this article about new advances with sustainability and cars. The car they are talking is the FCX, Honda's newest Fuel Cell Vehicle which runs on hydrogen and also apparently they used carbon fiber in the construction. I thought this was pretty interesting although I'm not sure exactly how they used the carbon fiber. I think it's pretty amazing how lightweight carbon fiber is but that it is stronger than concrete. The car is very new and not available to the public and probably won't be for a long time but it's interesting to see what the car companies are working on for sustainability.
