You Can Get Used to Anything...... Even a Hanging......

Search gasoline explosion on Ytube..... you'll probably have to go to bed before you run out of accidents to watch. Said by an ICE gearhead (me).

This type of event I hadn't come across before today....

Now that science has shown global warming cycles followed by rising CO2 levels for hundreds of thousands of years before humans walked the earth and where we are at today in the current climate change cycle has next to nothing to do with human activities has been helpful to me.

You are clearly correct that dependable on fossil fuels will peak and go into permanent decline.

The funny part this will occur because of economical reasons and nothing else in the years ahead.
Be cautious about assigning or denying causality. I saw the same data, and much of the CO2 rise could be caused by overshoot. Cold oceans absorb CO2, warm oceans bubble it off. Much of the cooling may be due to volcanic aerosols, with CO2 stored in the oceans. Reverse that process and you have atmospheric CO2 tracking behind warming.

Yes... and not that many years ago, it was deemed unharmful to inhale vast quantities of tar, nicotine, and Co2 into one's lungs... Not that I care what someone else does; but, a cleaner, healthier tomorrow is a, "good thing", to quote Martha Stewart.
I put 15K miles on the Leaf in the year before it got totalled do I basically was seldom at a gas station. Smelling the gas vapors again was actually a painful experience. After about a month my brain stopped recoiling to the gas fumes.

Yep, hard to sell people on vehicles with a pressurized hydrogen cell on board, yet easy to sell them on a tank full of liquid explosive on board. o_O
Always had me scratching my chin :unsure:


But as far as “cost of production” goes, gotta think the savings in not having to redesign the automobile drivetrain would save a lot of cost?
I'm repeating myself, but I think if hydrogen has a future it will be energy storage. Solar cells don't work at night, so build a big solar farm to make hydrogen, then run it through a turbine at night. Storage would be local, or could be distributed through the existing natural gas network.

You nailed that relationship. Man being the demon behind global warming never made sense to me. Mother nature just is not that fragile. The eons of the active Ring of Fire activities pumped all kinds of stuff out of the earth. Ice cores can show this going back 450,000 years.
