Apparently the nuclear genie has two faces. Reports of two nations, N. Korea & Iran, desires for electricity are also fueling speculation of nuclear war.
Nuclear war is not an option. History reveals that this is one cancer of the human race that needs to be and can be eliminated.
A new technological breakthru exixts. It is comparable to the nuclear genie without the radiation and disposal problems. It costs less, one-fifth as much as a nuke plant. It is sustainable, and does not contribute to global warming as the massive cooling towers associated with a nuclear power plant does.
What is it?
It is the ability for a jet turbine engine to run on 15% oil content dry algae fuel!!! This is the quiet technological breakthru now being marketed to the most lucrative markets. Please see www.algaeaviationfuel.com
The full impacts of this engineering marvel are yet to be revealed. But the heart of a Natural Gas fired electric powerplant is the jet turbine. Now that is proven the these turbines can be powered by algae fuel, their will be required studies to prove the best way to implement. It will require facilities, shipping perhaps, a new paradigm of considering the implications of a renewable sustainable power source at utlity scale.
Not everyone will like it. But if one considers where the big money is, they are already betting on it. Ex BP execs, Monsanta, Bill Gates and VenRock are already joined together to pursue the green (in the fullest sense of the word) future of algae. Please see www.sapphireenergy.com
