| | New Energy Technologies when is the government / scientific community going to make new power stations that don't rely on fossil fuels. eg tidal power.
when are alcohol/plant oil/animal faeces powered cars going to be released.
Is the government / scientific community waiting until all the fossil fuels are used up to make new sustainable technologies. It seems they are just relying on fossil fuels to increase our gas prices and oil prices.
If someone releases alcohol/plant oil/animal faeces powered cars, the fuel crisis in Britain will be over, why can't they do it. they can but they want to bleed us dry with taxes first.
Its quite easy to put up tidal power stations up and they produce no pollution.
Its all food for thought. |

I have no documentary proof of this....yet. But think it out,the least productive possibility got all the money,very strange indeed.Incidentally I worked for a time at Finham water treatment plant in Coventry [many years ago] where the poo was fermented and ran 6X 600 Hp generators.
