Guest Yachtsman1 Posted October 10, 2009 Report Posted October 10, 2009 The news media yesterday announced that energy prices in the UK could rise by 45% in the next 10 years. At he moment we are playing around with solutions to the energy crisis which in my opinion are futile and desecrating our countryside. I made an HDR AV a couple of months ago of my first efforts in HDR which bombed out in certain quarters, this morning I re-jigged it to illustrate my point. It's on mediafire, low res, 3.5 minutes and an 9mb file size. Maybe a talking point for a slow Saturday. Apologies for my cutting & pasting efforts in Elements 6 in advance.http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=8ad124354296d6c7ab1eab3e9fa335ca04704e6b43ce400cYachtsman1 Quote
Lin Evans Posted October 10, 2009 Report Posted October 10, 2009 Hi Eric,Wind, Solar and Sea power are all potential candidates for furnishing electrical power for all nations and especially Sea power could be used in the U.K. Many years ago when I was 18 years old, I designed plans for power generation using tidal and wave power from coastal regions which could furnish sufficient power to run huge cities like Los Angeles, California. My ideas are only now being considered by "experts" in power generation.The sad thing is that systems exist today which could furnish "free" energy to the world, but I fear they will never see the light of day. Physicists agree that if "all" the energy in one cubic centimeter of "void" (space) could be converted to matter, the quantity of that matter would be greater than the total of all matter in the known universe! Ponder this - it's not an overstatement. Zero point energy systems exist today. I've seen some of them myself and they work! The issue is that for coal, oil, etc., to be replaced with free energy, millions of people around the world who make their livings in one or another way from these energy sources would be instantly unemployed. The fact is, however, that a "huge" amount of our income is spent on energy in one way or another. Subtract the cost of transportation fuel, heating, cooling, processing, etc., from our food supply and food would be dirt cheap. If the farmer didn't have to pay for fuel to run his equipment, the truck (lorry) driver didn't have to pay for fuel, we didn't have to pay for gasoline (petrol) to run our vehicles, we didn't have to pay for heating, cooling for our homes or the added cost of energy for production of goods, we could all live very cheaply. To make the transition to a free energy system, however, would be very difficult and trillions in currency would be at stake so it will not happen until we have run out of alternatives.It's interesting to me to see the dumb way automobile manufacturers are scrambling to make even dumber "hybrid" vehicles which use less fuel but cost more. Sure you get more miles per gallon of fuel, but there are large prices for charging the batteries and huge costs when they die. Then there is the issue of getting rid of all the lithium batteries. Why are they even considering a hybrid vehicle when it's very easy to run vehicles on straight water? We have had vehicles running on water for years now but that information is rarely allowed to "leak" to the public. The Japanese finally actually demonstrated an auto running entirely on water but the news was very quickly dropped and "buried" because if we converted rapidly to a non-polluting water driven engine, then oil companies would be quickly in big trouble and again, hundreds of thousands of people would be unemployed. I'm afraid it's a catch 22.... we simply can't get there from here....Nice show by the way!Best regards,Lin The news media yesterday announced that energy prices in the UK could rise by 45% in the next 10 years.
