Comments on: Obama names energy and environment team

President-elect signals plans for aggressive change on climate change and "green collar jobs," but faces a host of political and economic challenges.

As long as that nut Al Gore (or anyone nutty like him) isn't involved then I'll be happy.

Amen to that!

I hope the "green team" gets busy working on making America energy independent! It would cost the equivalent of 60 cents per gallon to charge and drive an electric car. The elec to charge the car could be generated by wind or solar partially or in whole. If all gasoline cars, trucks, and suv?s instead had plug-in electric drivetrains, the amount of electricity needed to replace gasoline is about equal to the estimated wind energy potential of the state of North Dakota. Jeff Wilson author of The Manhattan Project of 2009 has a fascinating article on his Better Place Blog called "How Much Electricity Does It Take To Replace Gasoline?" you can read it at... http://planet.betterplace.com/profiles/blogs/how-much-electricity-does-it

Are "cars, trucks, and suv?s".... the only things to think about!!! So, what will the airplanes run on so that passengers do nor have to dive into their pockets to pay for the luggage. The question is: What will be done for the "airline industries" in terms of energy self-sufficiency?

I'm sure the Power-Crats (i.e. power hungry) fearless leader Gore and his infinite wisdome will put forth some looney plans for sure, like cucumber powered cars or something. They always do.

If President Elect Obama is looking for viable renewable "green" solutions, he should look into a Solar Transfer solution.

GLOBAL WARMING HAS CRITICALLY AFFECTED THE SURVIVAL OF MANKIND

In Order to Mitigate Global Warming, the World Governments are Pursuing & Using the "Wrong Technologies":

NUCLEAR POWER MAY NOT BE THE MOST CONDUCIVE TO SOLVE GLOBAL WARMING ISSUES BECAUSE IT MIGHT BE PRONE TO DISASTERS OWING TO UNFORESEEN ERRORS WHICH MIGHT REPEAT THE CHERNOBYL ACCIDENT, THE HARMFUL FALLOUT CONTAMINATION FROM WHICH MAY LAST MORE THAN A FEW CENTURIES.

In order to save our World called the Planet Earth from further Global Warming and resultant adverse climatic changes causing all the unprecedented incremental Natural Disasters globally, we must go after the Best Technologies already available long ago despite the suppression of which by selfish vested interests of Fossil Oils' Companies.

Nikola Tesla the Greatest Inventor of the last century had invented the Technologies to run cars & power stations without fuel one Century ago and these technologies might still be classified top secret, immediately after his death. It is time to resurrect Nikola Tesla's life-works to produce electrical power without fuel and sharing them as it was intended by the Greatest Inventor himself.

Stanley Meyer had invented the Technology to turn Water into unlimited amount of fuel for making Unlimited Power Supply and to run cars and all internal combustion engines with HHO "on demand basis only" and so no storage of the HHO gases is required as it is safer & cheaper to store water instead, but unfortunately he was murdered. He had about more than 40 patents in this Technology. No one Car/Technology Company has pursued this technology further by buying up his technology and put them to good use to save our this planet Earth from Global Warming causing adverse climatic changes and disasters and hardship owing to unlimited and unrestrained use of Fossil Oils and Fuels, thus releasing & emitting enormous quantities of green house gases into the atmosphere. I think some company like Google should buy this Patented Technologies from Stanley Meyer's family and make this open source technology for the world to improve on and make good use of this Technology to save our world call Planet Earth.

On a two prongs approach, also those Zero Fuel Technologies invented by Nikola Tesla should be declassified and resurrected by the next President of USA to run cars and power-stations to save our Planet Earth from destruction and doom owing to unlimited and unrestrained use of Fossil Oils and Fuels for the whole of last Century. Our World the planet earth must be saved from the exploits of greed of the vested self interests of the fossil oil & fuels producers that pumped the unlimited amount of Greenhouse gases into our common atmosphere for the last century.

History had proven that owing to selfish gains and big business interests and the many Government interventions the "Free Energy Inventions & Innovations" for the good of mankind were suppressed by vested interests such as the life works of Nikola Tesla and the strategic others were even kept classified by the US Government after his death until the present day. 100 years has been lost and that now our planet earth is placed under the stress of Global Warming owing to the unlimited use of Fossil Oils and Fossil Fuels which in the first place was not needed if the Inventions of the Greatest Inventor, Nikola Tesla were not suppressed 100 years ago. If the Governments of the Nations of World are not going to make and initiate the required changes to stop the continuing use of fossil oils and fuels with alternative fuel someone without vested interests in the Fossil Fuel Industries has got to take the great Initiative to bring out the best technology to save our planet from impending doom.

The best inventions of the Greatest Inventor like Nikola Tesla were suppressed 100 years ago, but under present day scenarios, the works of Great Inventors like Stan Meyers were suppressed as he had been murdered and many others like him were also murdered. Instead of getting support in the scientific community he was ostracized and so as others like him.


The next President of USA must come forward to lead in creating the best alternative energy sources for the good of mankind to follow the footsteps of Nikola Tesla to share his inventions for the good of all mankind. Be it free energy by Coils tapping free energy from the Magnetics Poles of the Earth, Cold Fusion or Magnetic Engines or splitting of Water through electrolysis process on demand basis to produce Brown Gas or HHO to run the present day Vehicles' Internal Combustion Engines without modifications then why not to cut the pollutions from the use of fossil oils and fuels.

If you have enough power to drive electrolysis why wouldn't you simply use that power to drive an electric car? Why the electrolysis?

[megreener]

Alternative energy technologies suffer from some common problems. First, several sources are intermittent and unreliable. These are natural resources so the wind does not always blow, the sun does not always shine and waves do not always occur. This gives rise to the inherent problem of providing a constant power supply to energy users.
Nationally, this may be resolved by using revolving supplies so that conventional fossil fuel power stations running at low output may promptly be increased to full output to meet sudden demands when alternative sources are not available. For instance, an eco friendly method could be to use pumped hydro-electric power in which water stored behind a dam would be released to meet peak demand and then pumped back later. Alternative energy sources are discussed in great detail at http://www.onebiosphere.com
A more efficient solution will be to establish a distributed system over an entire continent so that when one county is producing excess power, it sends electricity to another region. Similarly, when there is no wind in Massachusetts, wind energy from Texas may be distributed.
