Wide shot of alternative cars on parade. \u003cbr/\u003eIf you're thinking of going green when it comes to cars, then Santa Monica, California is the place to be. \u003cbr/\u003eGreen means clean in Santa Monica. \u003cbr/\u003eAnd the beach front community near Los Angeles is doing what it can to promote clean-burning cars.\u003cbr/\u003eThat is, cars and other vehicles powered by something other than gasoline. \u003cbr/\u003eIn 2006 Santa Monica played host to the Alternative Car and Transportation Expo. \u003cbr/\u003eThe city is serious about promoting clean alternative transport, with its own fleet of hybrid cars and natural gas-powered busses. \u003cbr/\u003eAnd the city-sponsored Expo showcased a hundred cars using alternative power. \u003cbr/\u003eThat means everything from pollution-free electric or solar-powered runabouts of all shapes and sizes to sleek hybrids that use a combination of electric power and hydrogen. \u003cbr/\u003eIt also means cars that use other fuels, like natural gas, biodiesel or ethanol. \u003cbr/\u003eThe Expo was also a natural gathering place for the owners and would-be sellers of alternative cars. \u003cbr/\u003eSome alternative auto owners say clean-burning cars aren't just the wave of the future, they're here now and becoming more affordable, especially if you just want something to get to the grocery and back.\u003cbr/\u003eThey also know they've got to get beyond the image many Americans have toward alternative fuels and the cars that run on them. \u003cbr/\u003eThat is: too expensive, too weird and too far in the future to even think about. \u003cbr/\u003eBut backers of alternative cars also know consumers want cars that go the distance, long distance. \u003cbr/\u003eAnd clean car advocates admit they're still struggling to convince gas-guzzling, car-crazy Americans to kick the petroleum habit. \u003cbr/\u003eAlternative fuels, like biodiesel, are available now at the pump and advocates hope that will help win over wary consumers. \u003cbr/\u003eMany clean car advocates are also long-time environmental advocates. They want clean cars because it means cleaner air. \u003cbr/\u003eBut they also admit consumers across America may need other reasons to buy clean and green, like cheaper fuel.\u003cbr/\u003eChampions of the clean car can take heart - a recent Wall Street Journal/Harris Interactive poll suggested a third of Americans surveyed are seriously interested in buying or leasing alternative power cars.
