The future.

  1. Scientists will probably figure out away to cure all diseases make inventions for the greater good and stuff
     
  2. Think of our gas prices now, why is it rising if we have a surplus of oil?
     
  3. Because Japan probably scaring the crap out of u.s or something
     
  4. Japan? You have no knowledge what so ever on our economy and the Eco system
     
  5. There is just too much stuff being invented or developed that is probably gonna solve alot of problems
     
  6. Jeez chamis something on the news this doesn't even need to be discussed just let The world go round
     
  7. Gas prices are going up because environmentalists won't let us drill offshore oil and greedy oil companies won't build refineries to convert oil into gasoline. They make more money when oil isn't as available because the price per barrel goes up with less refineries.
     
  8. If we gotta go we gotta go
     
  9. All we have as of right now to possible spark our way to fixing up earth is electric motor vehicles and better hybrids that has been released to the public
     
  10. Well we really never know what there doing behind the scenes so to speak
     
  11. Hybrids are worse for the environment than gasoline power engines. Think of how they get their electricity.... Coal fired power plants.
     
  12. What about the whole green electricity from water to wind and the sun?
     
  13. Is that our electricity is converted?
     
  14. Solar power is too expensive as of now, water is only available where there is rapidly moving water, an wind power just takes too many turbines and doesn't produce enough energy.
     
  15. What about solar based cars? There has been some kind of build on it
     
  16. Yea the whole wind turns turbine make electricity or the solar panels taking in rays of sun
     
  17. Have you heard of bloom? If you watched 60 minutes there was this Indian engineer that figured a way of how to replace our conventional energy with this bloom?
     
  18. At least it's a start
     
  19. Chamis, unless you live in a place that is powered via nuclear power plant then you're probably on coal.

    Coal is burned. Water is boiled by hot coal. Water turns to steam. Steam spins turbines. Water cools and is recycled through the system. Coal turns into smoke which floods our atmosphere.

    That's how power is produced. So essentially electri vehicles are shifted away from gas and run on coal, instead.
