    James, why not consider working in the renewal energy field. They need smart leaders like you. A job is waiting for you.

      I agree, James should look for a job working in renewable energy, not for his sake but for ours.

    Just the fact of cleaner air will save hundreds of millions of health expenses.
    The combination of water, solar, wind & batteries with some little green hydrogen will do the job perfectly.
    And no methane! That’s much worse for the climate than Co2.
    In the future, all households will run completely on electricity. A few weeks in November/January, when neither the wind is blowing nor the sun shines, will be bridged with green hydrogen, wich will generate electricity via fuelcell technology.

    Sorry, but burning natural gas is NOT sustainable in any way. I don't know where you got the idea that it can be generated from the atmosphere, but that is utter hogwash. Even if it were possible it would be incredibly dumb for the same reason that burning hydrogen is dumb: you expend many times the energy you get out of it to generate it. Then there's the fact that even burning hydrogen is NOT clean when using atmosphere to burn it. In theory burning hydrogen just gives you water vapor, but in reality all the non-oxygen components of the atmosphere result in nasty combustion byproducts.
    We need to stop burning stuff, period.

    Have you seen the new china solar panels that use double film and are getting about 40% efficiency?

    The companies love wind farms due to the kickback payouts they get when the national grid can't use the power or has too much power to accept power from the wind turbines.

      Well good for you. Are you allowed to use a battery storage or it that also in their bureaucratic discretion?
      I know you're a Tesla fan and have you considered joining their virtual power grid?

    Referring to petroleum derived fuel as "fossil fuel" is simply incorrect: (from Today I Found Out with Simon) "Why do People Think Oil Comes From Dinosaurs" ua-cam.com/video/dtBnIg5TRV0/v-deo.html It's also a good reminder to avoid taking too seriously anyone that does because it represents the shallow depth to which they're familiar with subject.

    • @edwyncorteen1527

      no one is saying oil comes from fossils, as the video shows it is billions upon billions of microscopic plants and animals that lived AT THE SAME TIME as the fossils we now find so it is entirely reasonable to call these fossil fuels, the carbon we are releasing was removed from the atmosphere millions of years ago and we are now releasing it back into the atmosphere over a period of time that is a blink of the eye in geological time.

      ​@@edwyncorteen1527 The term, "fossil fuel", which is thoughtlessly thrown around, explicitly implies its users do believe it. The derogatory term, "dinosaur juice" is another revealing term used in the same vein.
