Peter Maier commented on the blog post Natural gas: The ‘atomic bomb’ of the energy debate 1 month ago · View
Natural gas is pushed as a ‘clean’ form of energy, but doesn’t it create the same carbon and nitrogen oxides any other fossil fuel burning creates and isn’t it one by itself that cause climate change and global warming?
Doesn’t anybody keep score on this debate or is climate change out of the picture? -

Hydrogen can be burned directly in a combustion engine. The only problem is to store hydrogen in enough quantity to drive a decent distance, without recharging. That is why Norway (a land with plenty of oil and gas) is building a hydrogen highway and whatever happened to the one in California. We know how to [...]

Talking about efficiency. Electricity, although very convenient, is not very efficient when you include all the losses from the energy content of the fuel used to generate electricity to the actual work done by equipment. You probably never saw these figures, as the overall efficiency probably would be less than 20%. This even without the [...]

Life on earth for millions of years selected hydrogen as the energy form, by splitting water into hydrogen and oxygen, using the energy of the sun. This energy was stored in organic matter and by burning fossil fuel humans are using all this stored energy and dumping carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. This while wasting [...]

Under the CWA EPA was supposed to establish best available sewage treatment criteria, to be used in its implementation program, but never did and never establish treatment standards for it now calls ‘nutrients’. Sadly EPA already in 1978 officially (one of their reports) acknowledged that not only much better treatment was available, including nitrogenous waste, [...]

Dirty waterways will only be cleaned up if sewage is properly treated. When Congress passed the Clean Water Act in 1972, with its final goal to eliminate all water pollution by 1985, Senator Muskie said on the senate floor: “This Act simple means that we can not use our rivers to clean our sewage any [...]

When you ask everybody’s opinion, you get so much, often incorrect information, that you get a situation where you can not see the forest because of the trees. As an academic institution, I suggest you initiate a matrix evaluation program that in summaries represents all the potential energy solutions, so when you deal with an [...]
