Fwd: California Plan Brings Gas Cars Closer to an End, page A1

[Bela Liptak]

 

Kérem a Magyar Lobbi résztvevőit is, hogy segitsenek a jövő energia-frrását illető felvilágositó munkámban a Facebookon, ujágokon, magán beszélgtéseken keresztül. Nagy szükség van erre, mert egyenlőre még az USA vagy EU vezetői sem értik.

To the Editor,

 

Conversion to electric cars does not eliminate carbon emission, because both the manufacturing of batteries and their  recharging with fossil-based electricity emit carbon. The same holds true (to a lesser extent) to nuclear, solar, wind, hydraulic, etc. rnewable energy processes, because the manufacturing of their components is still carbon emitting. A zero-carbon energy economy can only be reached when the total energy economy is carbon free.

 

This will only be the case when there is no carbon emission occurring during the entire energy supply processes. This requires the conversion to an energy economy, where solar energy is used to generate hydrogen from water and all fossil fuels are replaced by that generated hydrogen, which is stored and transported as natural gas is today.

 

This fossil to hydrogen conversion is essential, not only because we want to prevent future energy-wars, but also because as long as we are only reducing our carbon emissions, the total in the atmosphere will keep rising and so will global warming.
