It has long been evident to policymakers that new sources of energy are desperately needed to compensate for the eventual disappearance of existing fuels as well as to slow the buildup of climate-changing "greenhouse gases" in the atmosphere. There are some parts of the world where solar and wind energy generation have advanced much further and faster than here in the USA. There are other energy solutions which have been carried forward in varying degrees and gone through testing and been implemented to various degrees in different parts of the world. In view of the reality of how fast that these solutions need to be advanced into widespread useage, though, we are lagging way behind. We are simply moving way too slowly if we hope to avoid a global train wreck in the not too distant future.
The report from the Department of Energy in the US shows alarming statistics that renewable fuels, such as using the elements for power as well as wood and fertilizer, accounted for only 7.4% of global energy in 2004; biofuels accounted for another 1/3rd of a percentage point but biofuel in the form of ethanol derived from crops is causing millions of deaths due to food shortages this year alone. So how much of the energy production worldwide was from fossil fuel? About 17/20ths! And nuclear power another 6%. The scariest news of all is that the Dept of Energy projects that two decades from now that percentage will be the same.
In global warming terms, the implications are nothing short of catastrophic: The increase in dependence upon coal as highly indicated by trends in India, China and in the rhetoric of George W Bush means that global emissions of carbon dioxide are projected to rise by 59% over the next quarter-century. And this spells unmitigated, unprecedented disaster in the form of environmental upheaval.
When it comes to global energy supplies, the implications are nearly as dire. We simply are not set up on a policy, administrative, infrastructure basis to meet the demands for moving into new energy sources that we are going to have to confront in the next couple of decades.
In all of my research I have found only one really hopeful glimmer of light in all of this dismal depressing darkness lol. And that is from a grassroots, internet based phenomenon called Water4Gas
WATER4GAS is sharing information for a nominal fee which individuals can use at home to create a small device which infuses hydrogen into the gasoline/air mixture that their vehicle runs on.
Using Water4Gas you can reasonably expect to increase your gas performance by 30-50% or even more. With W4G gasoline is made consumable so you can increase your gas performance.
It also helps make emissions significantly cleaner.Happy members number about 99%! Isn’t it your turn now?
