The other cars surrounding the taxi are dark and silent. The taxi driver is standing a bit away under the store entrance roof taking a smoke. Fucked up attitude or total ignorance.

Hello friends , In my previous posts I told you about coal --- In this post I will tell you something about Oil and Natural gas......(2) OIL : Sedimentary rocks containing plants, animals , which are about 10 to 20 crore year old are source of mineral oil . Mineral oil is very unevenly distributed over earth. Almost 40% of the energy needs of the world are completed by oil....U.S.A , Mexico, U.S.S
Fossil fuels are the coventional energy sources , i.e. they are been used for a long time for commercial purposes..... Fossil fuels were formed due to the dead bodies of plants and animals buried millions of years in the earth's crust ....... This gave rise to three major types of fossil fuels , which are :(1) COAL : Coal has been the primary source of energy since the advent of industrialization.

4.2 billion. That's how many rooftops you'd have to cover with solar panels to displace a cubic mile of oil (CMO), a measure of energy consumption, according to Ripudaman Malhotra, who oversees research on fossil fuels at SRI International. The electricity captured in those hypothetical solar panels in a year (2.1 megawatts each) would roughly equal the energy in a CMO. The world consumes a little over 1 CMO of oil a year right now and about 3 CMOs of energy from all sources. Read the full story from News.com. Hattip to Laura B

World Bank leaders had convened in Washington DC -- abloom with cherry blossoms -- for their annual spring meeting, and announced plans to launch two new climate-change funds. One new pot of Bank money is focused on the development of clean technology, and the other pot earmarked for 'resilience'-helping countries adapt to rising sea levels, increased intensity of storms, drought, and other economic harms resulting from climate change.

Oppss.... we will be out of fossil fuel before we need to implement Carbon Trade scams Quote - "(Hassen) grossly underestimated the scale of the problem." But please give him more funding, media attention and credit for this gross error in data A renowned global-warming scientist says the problem of global warming is much more serious than previously estimated. However, he also hints that there may be no need to fear catastrophic carbon-driven climate upheaval, as mankind will run out fossil fuels much sooner than presently estimated. James Hansen, chief of NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies, was one of the first to warn about global warming decades ago. What we have found is that the target we have all been aiming for is a disaster - a guaranteed disaster," Hans
I am not in the mood today to write a serious rant today so here is my silly rant for today:Simple and clear: We need to get off the fossil fuels as much as possible. I am no expert in this area, just a concern citizen that wants a cleaner, better world. I want alternatives to gas. I want affordable green cars and fuels in our world.Some say: "What's the big deal besides the *bleeping* gas prices?" Well think about it this way, if we have alternative fuels then that would be in direct competition with Big Oil Companies... that would bring down the cost of gas. One thing that has been lacking is some kind of direct competition with gas/oil companies. Once alternatives 'catch on' and big oil is finally on it's knees then we can have a better world.You don't have to believe in Global Warming

A leading scientist accuses creationists of peddling the lie that there is no fossil evidence of evolution.Some Christians claim there is a lack of "missing link" fossils, halfway between two major groups of creatures.They say this proves Charles Darwin's theory of evolution is a fallacy and that God created each living species from nothing.But, in an essay published in the magazine New Scientist today, geologist Donald Prothero claims that reports of "huge gaps" in the fossil records have been greatly exaggerated.Dr Prothero, a professor of geology at Occidental College in Los Angeles, said: "Life does not progress up a hierarchical ladder from 'low' to 'high' but is a branching bush with numerous lineages splitting apart and coexisting simultaneously."For example, apes and humans split f

Recent reports, though, have led to a growing concern that ethanol might simply be a faster way of digging an environmental grave. According to a piece in Science magazine, experts from Princeton and the Nature Conservancy have focused on serious problems associated with the rising use of ethanol. First and foremost, they said, clearing the vast tracts of land necessary for growing corn can result in anywhere from 17 times to 423 times more carbon emissions annually than are saved by burning biofuels rather than fossil fuels. There are some caveats to these objections: For instance, the exact emissions numbers are by no means agreed upon, and cellulosic ethanol could be made from switchgrass or other plants, which can grow almost anywhere and would not increase the price of
Scientists find 'Devil Toad' fossilWASHINGTON - A frog the size of a bowling ball, with heavy armor and teeth, lived among dinosaurs millions of years ago — intimidating enough that scientists who unearthed its fossils dubbed the beast Beelzebufo, or Devil ToadBut its size — 10 pounds and 16 inches long — isn't the only curiosity. Researchers discovered the creature's bones in Madagascar. Yet it seems to be a close relative of normal-sized frogs who today live half a world away in South America, challenging assumptions about ancient geography.The discovery, led by paleontologist David Krause at New York's Stony Brook University, was published Monday by the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences."This frog, if it has the same habits as its living relatives in South Am

There are three fossil fuels in the world, however none of the three are great for the environment and the work is on to find alternatives to fossil fuels.Coal, oil, and natural gas are the three fossil fuels available. Besides not being great for the environment, there is also not an endless supply and eventually one or more of these resources will disappear. So scientists and others are looking to find ways that are more efficient, less harmful to the environment, and that have the ability to replace our existing fuels over time.There is enough coal left on the planet to last another 200 years or so. That sounds like a long time but really it's not. On top of that coal is not a clean fuel form. Coal is made of carbon and in order to create energy from it, coal must be burned which creates carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide is partially responsible for global warming because it traps the earth heat. The good news is that more effective methods of burning coal have been discovered thanks
October 31, 2007—They didn't have any bones to leave behind, but ten fossilized jellyfish recently discovered in Utah have made an impression in more ways than one.
At half a billion years old, the fossils represent the oldest jellyfish
ever found and push back the known existence of jellies 205 million
years, scientists say.
The newfound fossils also offer much greater detail than more recent
specimens, which has allowed researchers to link the ancient animals to
types of jellyfish living today.
"The fossil record is full of circular-shaped blobs, some of
which are jellyfish," Paulyn Cartwright, a University of Kansas
biologist who was on the research team, said in a press statement.
"That's one of the reasons the fossils we describe are so interesting,
because you can see a distinct bell shape, tentacles, muscle scars, and
possibly even the gonads."
Cartwright and her colleagues studied these anatomical features
and found that
