FORMULATED MICROCRYSTALLINE WAX WILL CAPTURE THAT BLACK CARBON SPEWING FROM THE WORLDS INDUSTRIAL SMOKESTACKS The solution for capturing carbon was discovered in my lab and candle shop over 40 years ago. I knew back then that this was going to come to this day. I had to search for the answer and did. The heat loss from a smokestack can be forced or harnessed into a large tank containing hot liquid microcrystalline petroleum wax. The heat will keep the wax in a molten state which facilitate the carbon to be absorbed when combined with the wax. Carbon when mixed with wax reacts like a dye. The wax-carbon amalgamation will result in a black wax solution thereby making it impossible for the carbon to escape into the environment while in a liquid state. Other toxic particles are also captured in the wax settling at the bottom of the tank as a sludge. A sludge release valve is located at the bottom of the tank. After the sludge is removed more wax is replaced in the tank working something like a toilet. The sludge becomes a byproduct that can be used as an additive to asphalt for roads or used for cocooning nuclear waste materials for long-term safe burial. The entropy of the Earth has been increasing at a startling rate since the beginning of the industrial revolution caused mainly by the carbon that is released into the atmosphere. Government scientists have failed to stop and prevent carbon pollution from entering the environment. This problem can only worsen until a solution is found before this problem becomes irreversible. It has been discovered that formulated wax has been shown to be the only answer to this problem. PREVENTING SPREADING RADIATION: This formulated wax will also help prevent the spread of radiation such as preventing the escape of Plutonium dust particles from nuclear reactors or from structures or buildings housing radioactive materials. In 1994 This method was successfully demonstrated on the Sarcophagus of Chernobyl's blown-out reactor # 4 that was leaking Plutonium dust particles through open seems. In 1995 formulated wax tape was used to cocoon radioactive metal that had spat out of the reactor at the time of the explosion for safe long-term burial. In 1993 a wax membrane method was used in the yard of an abandoned house about five miles from Chernobyl to demonstrate how to reclaim radioactive contaminated territories for re-cultivation. I have been researching wax for solving mankind created environmental problems since 1969. As I aged, I discovered many other uses for wax such as making candles or replicas of people's hands. This led to coating the hand castings with latex rubber. After the latex had cured, I inserted latex rubber tubing a quarter of an inch tubing in the tips of each finger that was sealed with the latex. After the latex had cured, I was able to pull the end of the tubing that caused the fingers to contract. By pulling the ends of all five tubs the hand would close or grip and was able to pick up things such as a pencil or jelly beans just like a normal hand would do. The end result would act like a normal hand. I was able to color the hand to match the color tone of the hand that I replicated. The end result was a prosthesis hand. Through the years I have discovered many other uses of formulated wax for solving environmental problems: Here is a list of confirmed uses since 1969. OTHER USES FOR SOLVING POLLUTION PROBLEMS USING WAX: • Remove oil spills from dry or wet sand, soil, water, ice This method was demonstrated for the Canadian government in 1974 to remove oil from a beach on Passage Island.

@@neeljavia2965 I do understand, but, the thing is, at present, our government is slightly going behind, when coming to pollution factors. Specifically in our capital city.
Health is wealth. Air quality is important. Yes industrialization and urbanization is good, but there must be a respect and balance for the nature around us. Take Dr. Seuss's The Lorax for example.
Air Conditioners for the Heat, Water Purifiers for cooking and drinking are now a must. Very soon, houses are going to be air sealed to combat pollutants and air purifiers are going to become a staple device in every house. Man, what are we becoming? 🤦♂️
The air quality in Central and West Texas used to be clear and clean, but now there are very few days the air quality is “good”, most days it starts out “moderate” goes into “unhealthy for sensitive groups”. Very often we have days that are “unhealthy”, and several times a year “very unhealthy” with NO NOTIFICATION OR WARNING TO THE PUBLIC. New Years Eve 2019 the air quality in most of South and Central Texas was “Hazardous” and no warnings were issued. This is a real crisis and the government at all levels is complicit in a failure to warn and inform the public of the dangers. Local news stations make light, pithy announcements that sound like a reminder to put on sunscreen, “We have some air quality issues out there today so if your sensitive you might want to take precautions.” What the hell does that even mean? When I inquired of a federal government agency as to the cause of the “Hazardous” air quality on 1-1-2019 the response was that it was “probably some new coal fired power plants in Mexico”, but they were not sure. There is what should be considered criminal level negligence going on and it’s being glossed over by those responsible for overseeing public health. Over 100,000 people a year die (as stated in this video) from poor air quality, an untold millions of others negatively impacted, and there is no sense of urgency to clean up the air quality. Indifferent politicians who only cater to their corporate sponsors, and pretend to care about whatever the crisis of the month is for fund raising purposes, are culpable in every death from poor air quality. Even so-called progressives have never mentioned NATION-WIDE BAD AIR QUALITY as anything that needs to be addressed. Deadbeat bureaucrats who live in CYA mode have no incentive to do anything about the problem. What good is a healthy economy if there is no healthy air?
Are you near Midland/Odessa? There has been a massive increase in oil & gas drilling in that area over the past decade. That could certainly contribute to poor air quality.
Because you have to drive your V8 suburban to take the 20 pound toddler to day care......politicians can pick on oil companies but not on the public over their unhealthy behavior

Successful people don’t become wealth overnight . What most people see as a glance wealth,a great career and purpose _ is the result of many hours of hard work and hustle over time

Pollution keeps rising in the US. We must get together and enroll more willing people, to try & convince Govt. to take stricter measures to control pollution, Anyone can Email me for advise and discussion.
As a guy from the Pittsbugh Area, Air is actually quite good in most of the metro area, It is just the Mon and Turtle Creek vallies where the pollution is horrible, as there are still steel plants. Right now on Air Visual the app, you will see that is the case. And compared to much of Europe and Asia, our air here is alot cleaner. Is there room to Improve? Yes. But we really should be happy with how far we have come.
@@linuxman7777 also from Pittsburgh and I can agree our air is much better today than the past. There is still much to be done but I would agree that our air is generally good
That’s crazy holy crap, I grew up around swampy and forest areas I didn’t realize how lucky not living in a big city is, as a kid I always saw cities as something that’s magical with all the buildings and lights around but now these days I’m more relieved for my health, I’m glad your asthma is gone
.....lmao....producing 1 EV car battery is the equivalent of a gas engines pollution for 3 years......to manufacture 1 EV battery, they have to dig up, 500,000 pounds of earth....doing that produces a ton of pollution....also, it's ALWAYS easy to say it's a corporations fault because of so called greed when you arnt in a position making that kind of money in that industry. What you claim will actually be credible if you worked in the oil/gas industry making tons of cash and you coming out and quitting and giving up all that money for the "better good" lol
I went to texas in 2014 and as soon as I got off the plane I had to have an inhaler. The "air" felt so thick that I literally couldn't breathe.... I only stayed for a few weeks there and I felt like if I stayed longer, I would have suffocated. The air in America alone felt poor generally and visiting from England it was a huge step backwards....
@@auro1986 you could still sell products polluting earth but you would no longer have same respect from the public as they did before and no longer recieve subsidies from gov. World is more cognizant of the conservation and restoration
While paddling the 1000 mile length of the Ohio river I noticed that there is a powerplant(s) every 30-35 miles with most of them coal fired. It will be a big improvement when all these plants are replaced with green energy sources. Fossil fuels have gotten a free ride because the costs to the environment and human health are NOT accounted for. If these external costs are considered, then green energy is very economical indeed.
I live in Ohio and it always struck me that the Ohio River could be a scenic tourist attraction if it wasn’t for all the coal fired power plants along the banks. Fortunately many of them have closed over the past few years, but there are still too many.
Public good and the wellbeing of the environment must be valued above the greed of the people running industry. We need regulation and real oversight and enforcement. Just because Trump did the bidding of industrial concerns doesn't mean it was a good idea. Maybe we need to get together and lobby for the sake of our health and future.
China: largest adopter of EVs (cars, buses, and taxis), including the longest network of high speed rail in the world. The biggest producer and user of solar in the world. Operates 3 out of 10 of the world's largest hydroelectric dams. The third largest user of nuclear energy, accounting for around 10% of the world's nuclear energy output. The world's largest producer and user of geothermal energy. A ban on gasoline cars in major cities during certain days of the week. Let's stay objective here. There's a lot of room for improvement, and there's a lot being done already.
@@Nickel-ns2ql That's true. China has a huge population and it is one of the fastest growing economies in the world. It still needs coal plants to supply people with electricity for basic needs such as heating. Renewables isn't an overnight achievement. Governments set long-term plans (10, 20, 50 years sometimes) because of the cost and time it takes to shift. Few countries are as privileged as, let's say, Norway to have access to natural renewables like hydroelectricity.
@@Lucky8s not saying they're doing poorly, just saying they're not putting that much effort as you were mentioning since they could've spent a bit more money and opt for natural gas from Russia instead of coal which will be much more ecofriendly. Also, just giving context to your statement, and don't take this as an attack.
Wait.....polluted places have lower land value and thus poorer people live there because that is all they can afford? Wow this is some incredible research and insight.
Air quality in the US is overall good. China , India and other places are absolutely filthy by comparison. But certain types of weather, especially in summer, can cause mild-moderately temporary "alerts" in various locations across the country. Most of the time air quality, even places like Los Angeles, Houston, NYC, etc., in fine. Much better than the air you typically breath indoors, inside a car with windows rolled up, etc.
Well not sure about the data but overall air quality has improved so much from the 1980s. Just wish so called green jobs paid more. I guess it’s ok we’ll just move more production off shore so big companies can pretend to be net zero.
We need to move production and manufacturing back to the US and do it in a clean and environmentally friendly way. That’s what we need to do. Offshoring sets us up for bottlenecks and holdups in delivery of goods as the Suez Canal blockage proved. Sure it’ll cost more, but everything is costing more in reaction to pandemic related production halts in other countries. And guess what? People are still buying goods. That tells you that we can bring manufacturing back to the US with competitive wages. The challenge will be doing it in a safer, eco friendly and profitable way. You can still offshore nonessential goods and resources, and maintain trade relationships.
No, the solution is to migrate away from the big cities. In smaller cities, a much larger percentage of people depend on cars, yet the air is cleaner there.
@@ybergik everyone living in low density suburbia will only increase the total number of miles driven, increasing air pollution. The pollution will be more dispersed, but on aggregate worse.
@@Racko. Yeah, especially not in the sunbelt. The non sunbelt cities like NY, Chicago, Seattle have good public transport infra, but LA, Atlanta will be a lot harder. And then Texas is so far off the deep end that they think that wanting good public transportation is equivalent to Communism
@@H7B2ify Houston actually has a very good public transportation system in the most densely of its areas, outside of metropolitan large cities across the US omit public transportation because of car ownership which ppl rather drive considering the places are designed specifically for cars, The same story is why LA transportation is almost nonexistent, Chicago, NY etc have the best due to their insane density which it makes A lot more sense there
@@saulgoodman2018 the proof of what? That less toxic emissions in ambient air from fossil fuel combustion leads to less human deaths? If that's what you mean then I encourage you to do even just a little bit of research, it's really not hard to find.
@@saulgoodman2018 Maybe, but he's correct. You do realize that there's 350 million people in this country? That's a lot of cars, factories, and energy production. Just because you don't see it doesn't mean it's not poisoning you.
I live close to DOW chemical plant, along the gulf coast,,,, So many people down here have major health issues, mentally and physically. Lets not even mention the number of cancer patients we have too......
Big cities ALWAYS have bad air quality. Been like that since industrial revolution. I grew up in smaller cities that do not have bad air quality. Not all of US has bad air quality. Compare to China where its 100x worse. Tens of thousands of chinese die in a China a year because of pollution and China's lack of restrictions in air quality.
Where Is Greta Thunberg? It seems as though the world is on the fast lane toward cleaning the car industry from polluting emissions. Everyone is rushing to create clean cars, whether battery or hydrogen powered engines, and bask in their cleanness. But the green alibi hides behind it a dirty truth: Zero emission does not mean zero pollution. Mining rare Earth materials required for zero-emissions engines, building charging stations, and the complex logistics surrounding the “clean” industries will take a heavy toll on Earth. In the end, the only ones who will gain from the “clean revolution” are the tycoons who are selling it to us, and the government officials who placate them for their own reasons. Where is Greta Thunberg these days? Like the rest of the pawns in the battle for wealth and power, the “climate knights” have sent her back to oblivion once they finished using her. It is all power games among giant corporations, but the environment and the climate are no one’s concern. Even if we switch to wind energy or ocean-wave energy, I don’t believe that we will gain much. We will have to pay for it elsewhere. For this reason, I think that the crux of the problem is not emissions, but our behavior toward nature and toward our fellow human beings. Here is where we can produce positive and lasting results. If we could communicate with one another positively, we could stop the madness of excessive development that manufactures unnecessary and harmful products. If we could slow down a bit, we wouldn’t need to burn so much fuel in order to defeat competitors in a race for wealth that makes no one happy. Only if we realize that our happiness depends on the quality of our relationships, and not on the padding of our bank accounts, we will be able to pause a little, think, and rebuild our civilization in a way that contributes to nature, to humanity, and to each of us.
Those in the comments remarking, "Well, hey, our air is better than Asia's," would do well to look up Cancer Alley to appreciate how it became that way.
Air quality is bad in the US because we are still a car-centric country, and to make air fresh we need to reverse this long-standing nonsense and adapt to a transit-centric country
Your only hope and salvation from this madness is Jesus Christ. You`re a sinner, Jesus was crucified for your sins on the cross so you could live forever with him. He provided a way out. Repent or face his judgement and wrath for the time is at hand, these are the end times.
Rosa, I visited Seattle, WA, where it rained or drizzled almost every day. My allergies and asthma went crazy every day! Was there a week and I couldn't wait to go home!!
I hate to break everyone's bubble but air doesn't just stay within our imaginary country or state borders. It blows around quite a lot. There's this thing called 'wind', which is a real border-buster. Same problem with the water.
This is such a privileged problem to have that cities in Asia particularly india haven't even started thinking or debating about it. Btw usual AQI in india is 200.
India should focus on clean air and the sell the tech as products to other countries. It will be a superior products compared to other countries due to the population density in India.
Ughhhhh environmental racism??? Major eye roll. That isn't racism. Air pollution doesn't hate black people. Air pollution doesn't make judgements based on skin color. Please stop pushing such nonsense. Environmental racism isn't a thing; the fact that black people suffer more is because of poverty, not racism.
This will be reasoning to tax people to be forced to pay to keep the air clean within there cities. I can see some states going nearly bankrupt and making excuses why they are unable to keep the air clean in New York vs Florida. You will then see people leaving states to migrate to cleaner aired states. Sucks
Are you serious?! China is literally the factory of the world, they pollute for everyone, the iphones, ipads, tvs, consoles...... are all made in China and then shipped to the US and around the world.
Because of years standing still leaning on economy that's been doomed to fail But its more important to exhaust resources before you change things right?
Reporters are so obtuse. Housing is cheap around plants and often in poor conditions. So poor people buy them up. Its your choice to buy the house there and its been known for a very long time that plants pollute so its a conscious decision. Blaming racism is disingenuous and lazy.
Multiple things can be bad at the same time. At the end of the day over 100k people die (unnecessarily) from air pollution in the US, that's inherently bad no matter how better or worse it is elsewhere.
Here's why clean air is so expensive, it is because dirty air is so CHEAP!
Pretty much

Absolutely correct!

The world must speed up going green and expand the use of renewable energy.
The air quality in Central and West Texas used to be clear and clean, but now there are very few days the air quality is “good”, most days it starts out “moderate” goes into “unhealthy for sensitive groups”. Very often we have days that are “unhealthy”, and several times a year “very unhealthy” with NO NOTIFICATION OR WARNING TO THE PUBLIC. New Years Eve 2019 the air quality in most of South and Central Texas was “Hazardous” and no warnings were issued.
This is a real crisis and the government at all levels is complicit in a failure to warn and inform the public of the dangers. Local news stations make light, pithy announcements that sound like a reminder to put on sunscreen, “We have some air quality issues out there today so if your sensitive you might want to take precautions.” What the hell does that even mean?
When I inquired of a federal government agency as to the cause of the “Hazardous” air quality on 1-1-2019 the response was that it was “probably some new coal fired power plants in Mexico”, but they were not sure. There is what should be considered criminal level negligence going on and it’s being glossed over by those responsible for overseeing public health.
Over 100,000 people a year die (as stated in this video) from poor air quality, an untold millions of others negatively impacted, and there is no sense of urgency to clean up the air quality.
Indifferent politicians who only cater to their corporate sponsors, and pretend to care about whatever the crisis of the month is for fund raising purposes, are culpable in every death from poor air quality. Even so-called progressives have never mentioned NATION-WIDE BAD AIR QUALITY as anything that needs to be addressed. Deadbeat bureaucrats who live in CYA mode have no incentive to do anything about the problem.
What good is a healthy economy if there is no healthy air?
Are you near Midland/Odessa? There has been a massive increase in oil & gas drilling in that area over the past decade. That could certainly contribute to poor air quality.
Because you have to drive your V8 suburban to take the 20 pound toddler to day care......politicians can pick on oil companies but not on the public over their unhealthy behavior

The secret of your future is hidden in your daily routine . Successful people do daily what the unsuccessful do occasionally
Successful people don’t become wealth overnight . What most people see as a glance wealth,a great career and purpose _ is the result of many hours of hard work and hustle over time
Success does not depend on your age, a degree, your wealth, or your IQ; it does depend on your belief in yourself and consistent action toward your goals.

While paddling the 1000 mile length of the Ohio river I noticed that there is a powerplant(s) every 30-35 miles with most of them coal fired. It will be a big improvement when all these plants are replaced with green energy sources. Fossil fuels have gotten a free ride because the costs to the environment and human health are NOT accounted for. If these external costs are considered, then green energy is very economical indeed.
I live in Ohio and it always struck me that the Ohio River could be a scenic tourist attraction if it wasn’t for all the coal fired power plants along the banks. Fortunately many of them have closed over the past few years, but there are still too many.
When supposedly free stuff becomes a luxury
Right 🤣😂😅👍💯
Public good and the wellbeing of the environment must be valued above the greed of the people running industry. We need regulation and real oversight and enforcement. Just because Trump did the bidding of industrial concerns doesn't mean it was a good idea. Maybe we need to get together and lobby for the sake of our health and future.
It isn't. Well except for a few blighted cities.
If you check air quality websites, US cities have mostly clean air. Better than many countries worldwide.
China: ......
China: largest adopter of EVs (cars, buses, and taxis), including the longest network of high speed rail in the world. The biggest producer and user of solar in the world. Operates 3 out of 10 of the world's largest hydroelectric dams. The third largest user of nuclear energy, accounting for around 10% of the world's nuclear energy output. The world's largest producer and user of geothermal energy. A ban on gasoline cars in major cities during certain days of the week.
Let's stay objective here. There's a lot of room for improvement, and there's a lot being done already.
@@Lucky8s also burns more coal than the whole world that generates most of the electricity used in those products you mentioned
@@Nickel-ns2ql
That's true. China has a huge population and it is one of the fastest growing economies in the world. It still needs coal plants to supply people with electricity for basic needs such as heating. Renewables isn't an overnight achievement. Governments set long-term plans (10, 20, 50 years sometimes) because of the cost and time it takes to shift. Few countries are as privileged as, let's say, Norway to have access to natural renewables like hydroelectricity.
@@Lucky8s not saying they're doing poorly, just saying they're not putting that much effort as you were mentioning since they could've spent a bit more money and opt for natural gas from Russia instead of coal which will be much more ecofriendly. Also, just giving context to your statement, and don't take this as an attack.
Well people won't care bcz companies have got a new propoganda
Of making air purifiers.
Wait.....polluted places have lower land value and thus poorer people live there because that is all they can afford? Wow this is some incredible research and insight.
the problem with the damage approach is that the model and economic cost is not aggressive enough
Air quality in the US is very good. Bad is what you get in India, China, and some other developing countries
One luckily of poor people like me is about living in countryside. My location is far away from civilization but less pollution than cities.
Air quality in the US is overall good. China , India and other places are absolutely filthy by comparison. But certain types of weather, especially in summer, can cause mild-moderately temporary "alerts" in various locations across the country. Most of the time air quality, even places like Los Angeles, Houston, NYC, etc., in fine. Much better than the air you typically breath indoors, inside a car with windows rolled up, etc.
Do all the cities being burnt down to intimidate the nation contribute to poor air quality?
I would think do
In Skopje 🇲🇰🇲🇰🇲🇰 and all big cities air has so much pollution
Well not sure about the data but overall air quality has improved so much from the 1980s. Just wish so called green jobs paid more. I guess it’s ok we’ll just move more production off shore so big companies can pretend to be net zero.
We need to move production and manufacturing back to the US and do it in a clean and environmentally friendly way. That’s what we need to do. Offshoring sets us up for bottlenecks and holdups in delivery of goods as the Suez Canal blockage proved. Sure it’ll cost more, but everything is costing more in reaction to pandemic related production halts in other countries. And guess what? People are still buying goods. That tells you that we can bring manufacturing back to the US with competitive wages. The challenge will be doing it in a safer, eco friendly and profitable way. You can still offshore nonessential goods and resources, and maintain trade relationships.
@@flynnrider7185 what a wonderful idea just wish it would play out like that
"Brawndo...It's got what plants crave."
Not Sure
The USA will never completely fix its air quality because the solution is reducing car dependence.
No, the solution is to migrate away from the big cities. In smaller cities, a much larger percentage of people depend on cars, yet the air is cleaner there.
Solution: More public transportation in dense areas, or less cars in cities. Which Ik can’t happen
@@ybergik everyone living in low density suburbia will only increase the total number of miles driven, increasing air pollution.
The pollution will be more dispersed, but on aggregate worse.
@@Racko. Yeah, especially not in the sunbelt. The non sunbelt cities like NY, Chicago, Seattle have good public transport infra, but LA, Atlanta will be a lot harder. And then Texas is so far off the deep end that they think that wanting good public transportation is equivalent to Communism
@@H7B2ify Houston actually has a very good public transportation system in the most densely of its areas, outside of metropolitan large cities across the US omit public transportation because of car ownership which ppl rather drive considering the places are designed specifically for cars, The same story is why LA transportation is almost nonexistent, Chicago, NY etc have the best due to their insane density which it makes A lot more sense there
Do you heard of PSC Nasal Filters which perform a filter to largely decrease the particle pollution by 10X, 100X, 500X based on the filter materials.
BTW those that didn't die from the air pollution do get less work performance; cleaning the air pays for itself in economic worker potential !!
“Asthma Sufferer” seems like a bit of a clumsy term, no?

Where Is Greta Thunberg?
It seems as though the world is on the fast lane toward cleaning the car industry from polluting emissions. Everyone is rushing to create clean cars, whether battery or hydrogen powered engines, and bask in their cleanness.
But the green alibi hides behind it a dirty truth: Zero emission does not mean zero pollution. Mining rare Earth materials required for zero-emissions engines, building charging stations, and the complex logistics surrounding the “clean” industries will take a heavy toll on Earth. In the end, the only ones who will gain from the “clean revolution” are the tycoons who are selling it to us, and the government officials who placate them for their own reasons.
Where is Greta Thunberg these days? Like the rest of the pawns in the battle for wealth and power, the “climate knights” have sent her back to oblivion once they finished using her. It is all power games among giant corporations, but the environment and the climate are no one’s concern.
Even if we switch to wind energy or ocean-wave energy, I don’t believe that we will gain much. We will have to pay for it elsewhere.
For this reason, I think that the crux of the problem is not emissions, but our behavior toward nature and toward our fellow human beings. Here is where we can produce positive and lasting results. If we could communicate with one another positively, we could stop the madness of excessive development that manufactures unnecessary and harmful products.
If we could slow down a bit, we wouldn’t need to burn so much fuel in order to defeat competitors in a race for wealth that makes no one happy. Only if we realize that our happiness depends on the quality of our relationships, and not on the padding of our bank accounts, we will be able to pause a little, think, and rebuild our civilization in a way that contributes to nature, to humanity, and to each of us.

It will be a superior products compared to other countries due to the population density in India.
Ughhhhh environmental racism??? Major eye roll. That isn't racism. Air pollution doesn't hate black people. Air pollution doesn't make judgements based on skin color. Please stop pushing such nonsense. Environmental racism isn't a thing; the fact that black people suffer more is because of poverty, not racism.

This will be reasoning to tax people to be forced to pay to keep the air clean within there cities.
