| Nederluv...Problem with switching is not so much the technology as it is a dependence on a world supply and transportation system that is built on and demands oil and coal consumption? What is needed is something like hydrogen power which will satisfy that type system.
I don't think nuclear power will adapt in a truck or auto engine? Ethanol is proving a problem and is driving food prices up. Wind power requires too much space for too little power? Rather than trying to change the size and shape of our existing transportation industry, maybe we should develop sources that will approximate the current oil burning engines...again hydrogen comes to mind?
Thus we play the fools with the time, and the spirits of the wise sit in the clouds and mock us. |
