  What are the agendas of climate activists?


Al Gore just admited what Conscervatives have always known,
environmentalism is religion...

  What are the agendas of climate activists?

It should be obvious the agenda from the left is to create a shortage of
available fossil fuel. Drive up the price of foreign oil. And allow
foreign interests to control the Nation...

The left has successfully prevented the US from using oil from the
Alaska wilderness, forcing the Nation to depend on oil found in the gulf
of Mexico, or buy oil from the Middle East...

Both sources I must add are far more dangerous. to the world's
environment than drilling in the Alaska wilderness.

  International leftest has successfully prevented the Nation from
using its vast reserves of coal.

 A fossil fuel that burns and produces the exact same amount of co² as
oil from Middle East. Both are fossil fuel coming from the same decayed
sea life. Either can be used to produce clean burning natural gas, no
one can tell the difference..

Both parties in Washington have caved in to foreign interests. Any
politician that goes against the tide will not be reelected...

More than 70% of the Nations population now believe ''global warming''
is real...We either capitulate or make an end run, to even up the score.

Technology for your car, is now available to give more than 100 mpg.
Technology is also available to completely do away with the power
companies. or at least reduce your need for power by 80%...

Washington is not going to solve the problem,Therefor it will be left up
to the people themselves to solve the problem....

No it isn't. And most certainly not for any SUV or 'mini-van'. Their air
resistance is too high for one thing and big tyres plus heavy vehicles give high
rolling resistance too.

LEN= Most of the gas produced in your engine, leaves unburned, the gas
is then burned after it leaves the engine with the catholic converter.,
What a waist! none of the manufactures has thought about installing the
converter inside the engine and burn the fuel to produce energy before
it leaves the engine..

Water injection to cool the converter inside the engine should give at
least 50% more mileage for your car. 100 MPG should be easily obtained,
perhaps 150 MPG should be more realistic..

Where do you get this nonsense?  The catylitic (not 'catholic') converter
does 'burn' the unburned gas, that much is true.  But it isn't 'most', it's
not even 25%.  The fraction of unburned hydrocarbons exiting the engine is
much, much smaller than that.

None of the manufacturers want to install catylitic converters inside the
engine because they know a heck of a lot more about engines and pollution
control systems then you do apparently.


Nope.  You're smoking something and have no real facts to support your
claims.  Water injection causes about as many problems as it solves.  Did it
ever occur to you that discharging more steam out the tail pipe carries off
more energy and therefore *reduces* engine efficiency?

er, catalytic...


Right.  I was so taken by the whole concept of a catholic converter that I
forgot to tackle that one.  _Most_ of the unburned hydrocarbons exiting the
combustion chamber get returned to the cylinder via the Exhaust Gas
Recirculation valve, ultimately getting burned.
