Despite some governments hurting their own competitiveness by pigeon-holing vital energy technology directions and mandates, a German company is working of their own solution, not just saying "electric is the future!"

Adapt or perish. The Free Market at work as it always should have been. Instead, governments have been putting their thumbs of the scale, interfering and socially engineering and rewarding companies who will become lazy due to the free tax handouts.

Porsche is replacing gasoline with air and water​



Porsches race like the wind and will soon be running on it in a roundabout way.

The automaker has filled up a 911 for the first time with a new synthetic fuel created out of thin air … and water.

The eFuel was developed by a company called Highly Innovative Fuels that the automaker has invested in as a hedge against being forded to go all-electric in the zero carbon future.


The company makes the fuel at a wind-powered plant in Punta Arenas, Chile, near the tip of South America, where the wind blows an average of 270 days per year
 
The best way to encourage innovation is to leave it to private industry without Government intervention. The space sector is the perfect example of companies stepping up. Nothing in history was ever made better by Government sticking it's bloated bureaucratic nose into it.
 
All solutions that can eliminate fossil fuels are worthy of consideration. Just be cautious on accepting possible solutions to the world's problem because of political reasons.

Have you now come to accepting AGW and the need to deal with it? Or in other words, what is your motive with this topic?

It's past time of trusting private industry to deal with manmade climate change and global warming. The responsibility is now on government acting before it's too late.

Assuming that it's not already too late, due to private industry's greed coming before our future prospects of living a life of climate disasters.

Canada is a threat to innovation and the security of the United States.

Oh yes global warming, I mean climate change. The excuse for massiveness amounts of wealth transfer.
 
It's probably best if denialists just try to ignore the topic.

Only bad experiences and catastrophy will change their minds.
Why don't you loons start by giving up everything the Government wants to eventually force on the rest of the population. Put you money where your mouths are or shut the fuck up. I know for a fact the elite pushing for this shit ain't going to give up their luxury.
 
US Postal Service is going electric, and they can retrofit these with this type of fuel. An Aspera probably can also, and to boot it has (moving solar recharge [italics]) capabilities.

My Canadian government is only trying to push positive social reform on the people. I support it with very few exceptions.

You've become irrational and rude. I don't entertain that sort of behaviour.

It needs to be accepted by Americans that EV's are not going to replace the tens of millions of petroleum fueled vehicles.

EV's are only a partial solution and the full solution is in elimination of the lifestyle that depends on fossil fuels. Think in terms of mass transit or other green solutions.

Yes, that's the thought. A lifestyle that uses a variety of means (Chilean methane, solar-recharged, recyclable lithium, physical pedaling) to wean from petroleum addiction. Mass transit has its own inherent pathologies: beat up on the city bus with brass knuckles/robbed, someone inside the apartment at the bus stop activating their car lock when the scapegoat walks up to the bus stop, as a projection of [petroleum-addiction's] class difference, etc.

The word is push. Governments elected by the people have no right to push anything that is tyranny.
I'm not being rude I'm stating blunt facts. It's fine if you want to give up things for the so called "common good", but I will not. Those elitist idiots telling everyone they have to sacrifice while they will not do the same just makes me dig in harder. They will have to take my shit by force.

The reason some Canadians like her like this, is they intend to have their hands out for Uncle Sams money. The government apparatus in Canada, especially Ontario, is massive and they need money from taxpayers everywhere.

It's terrifying that in a supposed free market society the largest employer is the Government.

You are saying a lot of things that seem to suggest that people should be forced to accept lifestyle changes.
 
Since it requires as much carbon dioxide to make as it emits in its emissions, it is essentially a net-zero fuel and could be approved for widespread use under future emissions rules.
CO2 is hardly the only "emission" of concern. The secret sauce of additives that prevent IC engines from seizing up in minutes for lack of effective lubrication also produce nasty exhaust products.
Porsche, other sports car companies and even the Formula One series have been investigating its implementation in order to preserve the performance and aural entertainment benefits of internal combustion engines in their products.
Lost the performance argument the moment the first Tesla rolled off the assembly line. For desperate motor heads, electronic simulation already provides such "aural entertainment" for little additional cost or weight.

Your Canadian government is run by Fidel Castro's son; You fucking moron! I bet you had no clue as to that being the facts.
