Joe Van Vynckt
As the world has changed and a large focus placed on reducing our green emissions it became clear to Joe it was time to understand alternative fuels and how they will shape the future.
CNG became an immediate interest of Joe, both personally and professionally, given the immediate impact it can have on our environment and the fact it is a domestically sourced readily available fuel source and technology.
Greg Todavich
Greg’s involvement in the energy industry started in the early 80s. Having worked in both the Electrical and Petroleum sides of the business, he sees CNG playing a considerably larger role in our nation’s growing energy needs.
His belief is it will take a very balanced or blended approach using multiple sources of energy for the foreseeable future. CNG meets the criteria we need in an alternative energy source as it’s Abundant, Domestically Produced, Affordable, Environmentally Friendly and Reliable.
Jerry Rushmore
Jerry’s first introduction to CNG was a professional one. The world currently has several hundred years of natural gas reserves. “CNG is the best/most economical, way to consume these reserves and protect our world, while still experiencing an enjoyable life.”
While traditional sources such as coal and oil create an untold hazard to our air— using natural gas in the transportation industry is “the quickest way to reduce current air pollution.”
Kurt Rushmore
For Kurt, CNG is both personal and professional. Kurt has been part of the Natural Gas pipeline industry as far back as he can remember— Kurt is the third generation of the Rushmore Family to be in the Natural Gas Industry. Professionally, he has forged a career as a Pipeline Developer, Owner and Operator for the past 30+ years— “CNG is evolution of everything I have done to date.”
Kurt believes CNG is a welcome break for our planet. “We, as a society, can continue to cherish our mobility— but no longer at the expense of the planet we rely upon for our food and water.”
Nichole Hunter
For Nichole, there is nothing more beautiful than the natural wonders we find here on Earth. “There’s nothing more peaceful than being one with nature.”
Nichole’s passion is for the great outdoors, to explore it, to appreciate its beauty, and to do what we can to take care of our environment. As humans, she believes natural resources are here for us to utilize but it is our job to do so wisely. “CNG is the one energy source that makes the most logical sense when you consider all factors and all energy sources.”
