Unfortunately, there are many smaller - lesser known researchers out there that do not receive adequate funding to conduct proper research. At SAAFER, we believe relief from our oil crisis will require a wide array of concepts, ideas and research projects. Many of our country’s greatest achievements have come from once unknown sources. Since the government is far less likely to take risks, The Department of Energy allocates it’s funding to more established and proven laboratories. At times, politics may play a large role in which project is funded. Additionally, the United States has already fallen significantly behind many other countries in this field. Whether it’s due to politics, lack of time, or a sheer lack of interest, the government is simply not doing enough. SAAFER’s only interest and mission is providing realistic alternatives and solutions for the public, not politics!! At SAAFER, we are tired of waiting for the government’s solutions; through contributions and research, we will work together to provide our own solution(s).
