Railroaders furious after Biden’s Presidential Emergency Board issues recommendations on national contract, siding with rail corporations on all major points https://popularresistance.org/railr...g-with-rail-corporations-on-all-major-points/
Wow. I wish I could send you one. When I was a kid, my father owned an ice cream plant and store. He had owned it 44 years. Guess where I worked.
Activists Arrested at Seattle Protest Pushing Murray to Reject 'Dirty' Manchin Deal "Sen. Murray and the rest of our congressional delegation must speak up strongly and swiftly against this massive rollback of public health and environmental protections that will fast-track fossil fuel projects." https://www.commondreams.org/news/2...test-pushing-murray-reject-dirty-manchin-deal
This doesn't even take climate change into account. But fossil fuel air pollution alone was responsible for deaths of more than 8 million people worldwide in 2018
Im for a balance or something reasonable, not opposed to other sources. Obviously there will always be internal combustion engines on multitudes of applications. Plus fuel fired /NG furnaces aren't going away soon either. Millions of them out there including mine/ng.
Internal combustion engines can run on clean alternatives. Including hydrogen. The equipment they power can also be converted to electric. Electric heat pumps are just as low cost to run as NG furnaces, and they are more flexible. We can replace everything we currently use fossil fuels for (except possibly lubrication) if we ramp up nuclear power generation. We can technically do this now. It's only a matter of will.
Heavy Equipment, Trucks, ships, Tugs, large gen sets that require diesel/NG, and many others that keep our infrastructure humming. Sure, there are alternatives with all sorts of possibilities but many are not feasible in some respect.
Heavy Equipment, Trucks, ships, Tugs, and large gen sets can all run on hydrogen. We can also make carbon neutral replacements for any fossil fuel from recycled plastic, as well as from thin air. Thanks to the crazy space nuts.
What kind of hydrogen power would a truck or tug use? Honest question, I am actually not familiar with that technology.
They can run on hydrogen just like they can run on fossil fuels. Or they can run on hydrogen powered fuel cells. The problem is in storing the hydrogen long term, as all storage technologies have some leakage when storing hydrogen. It's just such a small molecule. So you may need to have hydrogen filling stations along shipping lanes if you can't figure out a way to store it efficiently enough.
Did you hear about what the at the time FBI director named James Comey did leading up to the November 2016 elections? Sucks doesn't it? Welcome to the club of having the FBI do something that effects an election.
