Dubai: Three Emiratis and a Saudi national have created a car that operates on compressed air, according to a newspaper report on Sunday.

Emarat Alyoum reported that the environmentally friendly car runs on a top speed of 25 kilometres per hour.

Inventors around the world are trying to come up with their own version of an air-powered car.

Zero Pollution Motors said that it expects to produce air-powered cars for the United States by late 2009 or early 2010.
India's Tata Motors is also looking at manufacturing 6,000 zero-emissions air cars, which are scheduled to run on Indian streets in August 2008.

The problem is that everyone is anxious about certain sudden changes, including you. But while you're biding your time until you learn more, others are taking action, and it isn't always well thought out. The best strategy? For now – distract them.
