Looks like you pay about ten cents per gallon with "Hugo"
subsidizing the rest of the costs according to this

Here in New Zealand we're at

Unleaded $2.15.9 litre

Regular $2.22.9 litre

Diesel $1.59.9 litre

Petrol prices have gone up 13c in the last 8 days, the media here is predicting $2.50L within weeks. Good on the oil companys tho for holding the old price of $2.02.9 in christchurch while where cleaning up after the earthquake.

Well here in Brazil it's not that different, and we produce our own oil.
Doing the whole conversion from liter and currency, it's around ~U$ 6,00 a gallon and it's been like this for years, no electric cars or anything, I wish we had Prius down here...

The poll tax protests/riots worked though.
I think if there was mass protest involving everyone the government would have to listen. It wouldn't have any other choice.

And why the spike in prices? Because of Lybia?

Let me get this strait? The price of oil goes up 6% because production from a country that produces 2% of the oil has a 50% drop in production.

Ok. 50% of 2% is 1%...yet there is a 6% spike???

Then to top that off. In America, where we import less than 1% of our oil from Lybia, has a gas spike around 16%.

I'm sorry, but these numbers really don't add up to me...

In my part of Canada, Eastern Ontario, it's 1,20$/Litre for regular. Multiply that by 4.4 and it come around 5.25$/Galon. That sucks major camel scotum. I have an idea. What the major gas companies are doing, in my eyes, is very immoral and are preying on people only because they can. Can anybody help us from the greedy clutches of Big Oil? Some kind of group that fight for the people...maybe?

West Sussex, UK (South East)

In £ per litre
Unleaded: £1.369
Diesel: £1.429



In $ per gallon
Unleaded: $9.95
Diesel: $10.42

(Based on the exchange rate of £1 = $1.62, on the 7th of March 2011 [xe.com])

The sucky part, like a large percentage of people in the UK at the mo, I am unemployed and add to that lower income families and businesses who simply can no longer afford to buy fuel, which in turn accelerates this troubling cycle.

Worse still is threats of increased tax fuel duties AND a possible further increase of up to 8p due to troubles in Africa & the Middle East.

And as if things couldn't possibly get worse, a prediction by an MP this morning expressed concerns of £2.00+ per litre of unleaded come Summer time


Shame these pesky MP's claim all fuel costs as expenses... Which we, the tax payer, cover on their behalf anyway....

www.telegraph.co.uk...


And these rises, lest we forget, do not just affect the cost of running our vehicles/ travel. They extend to keeping our homes warm, to having a hot meal and keeping our food fresh in the fridge.
Our entire system relies on electricity and (sigh) that electricity is generated from fossil fuels.

I wish Nibiru would hurry up and slame into us already... I kid

I was sent this email from my elder sister a couple of weeks ago, and its relevance increases at the same rate of the fuel.

Its a very interesting concept which I have already begun following. If other join the revolt it can only assist in the scheme



This makes sense! We are hitting £1.299 a litre in some areas now
and soon we will be faced with paying £1.50 per litre.

This idea makes MUCH MORE SENSE than the 'don't buy petrol on a
certain day campaign' that was going around last April or May! The oil
companies just laughed at that because they knew we wouldn't continue
to hurt ourselves by refusing to buy petrol. It was more of an
inconvenience to us than it was a problem for them. BUT, whoever
thought of this idea, has come up with a plan that can really work.

Please read it and join in!

Now that the oil companies and the OPEC nations have conditioned us to
think that the cost of a litre is CHEAP, we need to take aggressive
action to teach them that BUYERS - not sellers control the market
place. With the price of petrol going up more each day, we consumers
need to take action. The only way we are going to see the price of
petrol come down is if we hit someone in the pocket by not purchasing
their petrol! And we can do that WITHOUT hurting ourselves. Here's the
idea:

For the rest of this year DON'T purchase ANY petrol from the two
biggest oil companies (which now are one) i.e. ESSO and BP.


If they are not selling any petrol, they will be inclined to reduce
their prices. If they reduce their prices, the other companies will
have to follow suit. But to have an impact we need to reach literally
millions of Esso and BP petrol buyers. It's really simple to do!!

Now, don't wimp out on me at this point... keep reading and I'll
explain how simple it is to reach millions of people!!

I am sending this note to a lot of people. If all of you send it to
at least ten more (30 x 10 = 300)....and those 300 send it to at least
ten more (300 x 10 = 3,000) ... and so on. By the time the message
reaches the sixth generation of people, we will have reached over THREE
MILLION consumers! If those three million get excited and pass this on
to ten friends each, then 30 million people will have been contacted!
If it goes one level further, you guessed it.....

THREE HUNDRED MILLION PEOPLE!!!

Again, all YOU have to do is send this to 10 people. That's all (and
not buy at ESSO/BP). How long would all that take? If each of us sends
this email out to ten more people within one day of receipt, all 300
MILLION people could conceivably be contacted within the next 8 days!!!
Acting together we can make a difference. If this makes sense to you,
please pass this message on.

PLEASE HOLD OUT UNTIL THEY LOWER THEIR PRICES It's easy to make this
happen. Just forward this email, and buy your petrol at
Shell,Asda,Tesco, Sainsburys, Morrisons, Jet etc. i.e. Boycott BP and
Esso


The message is aimed at the UK in this instance. But the issue is GLOBAL!
