Congress and the bureaucrats in Washington, the presidents of the last thirty years or so and others who are supposed to be responsible have known for a long time that oil is not in infinite supply and that we need real solutions for that and for the damage being done to our environment. There are some parts of the world where solar and wind energy generation have advanced much further and faster than here in the USA. A number of other innovative energy solutions have already been developed and even tested out in university and corporate laboratories. But these solutions, which now contribute only a tiny percentage of the world's net fuel supply, 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, including wind, solar, and hydropower (along with "traditional" fuels like firewood and dung), supplied but about 1/15th of all of the energy worldwide in 2004; biofuels accounted for another 1/3rd of a percentage point but the switch to biofuels, specifically corn and such crops is giving us a global food shortage disaster. So how much of the energy production worldwide was from fossil fuel? About 17/20ths! And nuclear power another 6%. Based on current rates of development and investment, the DoE offers the following dismal projection: In 2030, fossil fuels will still account for exactly the same share of world energy as in 2004. 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. The meaning of this is simple. If these figures hold, there is no hope of averting the worst effects of climate change. As for Peak Oil, this projection is equally depressing. We are well poised to have a worst case scenario perfect storm because of our lack of preparation and lack of forward progress on alternative energy solutions. The only real hope that I have seen in the entire field of alternative energy solutions comes from a simple information product that can be purchased on the internet WATER4GAS is providing information at a low price which folks can use at home to put together a small device which instills hydrogen into the gas/air mixture that their car or truck runs on. With WATER4GAS you can minimumly expect to increase your gas mileage by thirty to fifty percent or significantly more. With W4G gasoline is made usable so you can increase your gas mileage. It also helps make emissions significantly cleaner.Happy members number about 99%! So how about you?
