I invented a breakthrough new renewable energy source, which violates the law of energy conservation. I have a proof that there are electrodynamic phenomena which violate the law of energy conservation. I am looking for 4 million euros for initial research, after 2 years I will repay 200% of the invested amount. Even much smaller or much bigger investments will be considered on these conditions.

the solutions they offer expose the fraudulant nature of there claims. the awnsers are way more simple than they want them to be but they dont offer the draconion controle and taxes that the gov. wants. 1. building new nucular plants= jobs, CHEAPER energy, NO Co2. 2 premote electric cars for the local comuter= No Co2, saves the comuter $ 3. Diesel engines for trucks, suvs, and most of the rest of the cars= much less Co2 way better fuel economy, higher yeald per gallon of oil, easer to refigne,

People buy into both left and right sided propaganda and hoax' designed to trick and passify you while you actually loose your country and your freedoms. I'm sorry,but its clear that both sides of politics and all governments are working toward a sinister plan of total control of the people.

Independent energy is a way to fool the population into even worse financial slavery than the utility company's already have us in! Use your brains people!! The government will have control of the power grids, not you! They still will charge the ass out of you. Real energy independence is FREE energy! It is real! It exists in many forms and yet it is ignored by ALL politicians and ALL governments! If it doesnt make them money or keep us enslaved, it wont happen!

W.H.E.N. N.A.T.U.R.E. C.A.L.L.S.= "Why Haven't Ecologists Negating Needed Anwar-drilling Then Understood Rising Energy Costs Are Like Lawn Stools?!"

S.C.O.O.P. T.H.E. P.O.O.P. = "Sierra Club Opposes Oil Production! Take Higher Energy Prices Off Our Property!"

Yes, the ecologists' energy ideas are like the stools or poop that dogs leave on your yard, except in this case the stools are symbolic of high energy costs.

I live in California where a large percentage of the inhabitants are very concerned with these issues. I'm looking to purchase a new vehicle that I can run E85 but for some reason it can not be purchased at the pump. Another option would be a diesel conversion but being disabled person it wold be impossible to create my own fuel. I don't understand why many states in the upper and lower midwest have an abundance E85 stations and Californians do not have that option.

Good. There need to be more efforts from this angle i.e. showing nervous business leaders that there are opportunities, and necessities, in dealing with environmental issues.
