Bryan Wong asked: When the electrical utility bill is increasing each and every month you can do a few things. You can cry and pull out your hair; refuse to pay and get cut off and have no utilities; you could work harder and more hours each month to keep up the rising costs; or you could invest in other …

Cooler Planet asked: Solar power energy systems are not inexpensive. That said it’s important to compare them within context of other types of home improvement projects. Home buyers and realtors view a solar photovoltaic or solar hot water heating system as a significant value-added improvement – similar to adding a deck or remodeling your kitchen. Plus unlike a deck or …

Biodiesel is an inexpensive, environmentally friendly source of energy. These benefits have sparked the public’s interest in using this to fuel their cars. This increased interest has motivated many new companies and hobbyists to become producers and sellers of this new fuel. As with any other product, producers and sellers must meet certain regulations and, in addition, are encouraged to …

Natural gas consumption usually rises and falls with the seasons. In the winter months, we historically have used a lot more natural gas for heating. We are trending towards using natural gas for electricity, in addition to heat. Therefore, we are using more and more natural gas year round. Spikes in the summer are becoming more common than ever now …

Bio gas is being created in China: the use of methane gas from animal and human waste to fuel the family gas stove for meals. This is reducing household and earthly deadly carbon emissions. While we criticize China, they are helping place one hundred million of these basically recycling septic tanks, which has cleaner homes, healthier families and enormous further …

Everybody’s talking about the power of Hydrogen. What they don’t tell you is that Hydrogen cars with their pressurized hydrogen, and hydrogen gas stations – are a BIG safety hazard. It gets worse: hydrogen factories pollute the environment and spoil the ecological advantage of hydrogen cars. The solution Water Fuel provides you with is called “Hydrogen-On-Demand” – you produce Hydrogen …

As a freshman in high school, I failed chemistry class due to an extreme disinterest in the entire subject. I do recall a demonstration in which the teacher hooked a large one and a half volt battery to a glass and wire electrolyzer that transformed water into separated hydrogen and oxygen. I would later learn that commercial hydrogen and oxygen producers also used this method in an inefficient manner that requires more energy than the fuel produced can generate through combustion.
