  • XDDD thanks so much makes a great visual for my midterm I'm a visual learner so this will be in my head

  • @sheilach1

    Well of course, there's trouble with dumb alternatives to technologies that still apparently work.

    People seriously need to look into some conspiracy theories, and find that much of what "scientists" tell us, is NWO criminal elitist propaganda, and that they don't want problems solved. They want more human sacrifices to Satan, and more greed for themselves.

    Most scarcity is manufactured by bad gov and its fiat paper currency, for the purpose of spreading poverty, death.

  • Google "Abiotic oil".

  • ze peeple in zisht film isht so handsome......

  • @sheilach1 there is way more coal than oil in the world, so as oil runs out its much easier to just burn coal to make electricity for electric engines than do lots of work for biofuel. you can always count on us to do whats easiest in the short term, even if that means attempting to release every last bit of fossil fuel on earth into our air and ocean, but way before that likely pushing the oceans acidity low enough that ocean algae cell walls can't develop and the world loses its oxygen supply

  • @sheilach1 if you want to say that a biofuel requires more energy to create than it provides, then you choose the dumbest method--corn, and then calculate what it takes to fertilize it, water it, transport it, harvest it etc. and find the ratio of whats created to whats required is like 1 to 1, or maybe even worse. you have to seriously fudge things to claim that a smart method like cellulosic ethanol from hemp doesn't yield at least 150% of what it cost.

  • There is trouble in the algae biofuel program. They have failed so far to develop a algae that can efficiently produce biodiesel.It would take a state the size of Oregon to produce 70% of the gas we use in transportation.That figure does not include diesel or aviation fuel.Just producing biofuel isn't the end, you have to refine it and transport it to where it will be used,taking even more energy.

    A tractor cannot produce more than it consumes.Sorry.

  • @trishpar84 Do you mean the human ability to raise the number of starving people on earth from millions to billions? You are proving Malthus right, there will always be a majority of people thinking like you and breeding past their environments limit and ignoring the consequences, until the world is one big wonderful Dharavi, full of people like you preferring that famine and disease put a miserable painful limit on population.

  • @sheilach1 and worst of all a huge amount of land would have to be diverted from other stuff to biofuel production

  • @sheilach1 But of course there will still be a collapse in wealth because instead of something like 10 oil workers generating transportation fuel for 10,000 people it will take 2,000 biofuel workers to allow those 10,000 others to drive, and those extra 1,990 will have to be taken out of the ranks of the people flipping our burgers, cleaning our streets, building our houses etc.
