IIRC, there are combustion engines fueled by hydrogen.

The problem with a big solar shade is, that the World's weather system is extremely complicated, and placing a big umbrella above the Sahara desert would undoubtly affect the weather on a global scale. What we need is a safe, clean and unlimited power source. :-|


How about completely covering the entire Sahara Desert (and anywhere else bloody hot like parts of Australia) with solar panels and hooking them up to the ¨international grid¨. ;-)

Look at the sort of language being used here. Some people behave as though the appearance of the word 'truth' in a title equals the works being a fact.





Or covering Australia completely so the inhabitants have no escape.

Only Adz and family excepted. :-)

We need more investment in cleaner and more reliable public transport - we've had it in the UK - but private rail companies are hiking costs in line with fuel prices for the benefit of shareholders. Why?

We need rapid research of renewable energy sources. Why is the UK government not significantly increasing it's funding into nuclear fusion research?


Probably due to this lot's sucessful publicity over the years

Ah! My college Rugby team had a variation on that called a "Green {bleep}".

Take one pint glass, add a shot of Vodka and a shot of Blue Curacao. Fill the rest of the glass with Kronenburg or Lowenbrau (Loony Brew) and serve.

This was usually followed by frequent baring of one's derriere and the singing of lewd songs.


We had a similar one in days gone by "The Green Monster":

Half pint of super-park-bench-wino-strength white cider
Half a pint of Warstarter(Warsteiner) or Special Brew (I love you, yes I do, gonna spend all my money on you!)
Shot of Vodka (or window cleaner ;-))
Shot of Blue Curacao.

Drink 4 of them in a row, if you live you are harder than me! :lol:
