I know it works, but your titles become too click baity… starts to be a deterrent

I avoided this channel for ages because of how click bait the titles were...

I believe that the vehicle most friendly to our environment is one that is ALREADY built..

In the 1980s, the mother earth news research team was successfully using sunshine to distill alcohol fuel. Maybe that could help eleviate some of the energy input needs. Then we have to remember that a 1990s Honda crx was capable of 48 mpg and it wasn't a hybrid. Also, gasification of waste can supply a feedstock for making fuel. That's helping two problems.

🔌🔌Last month before I retired from Cummins we were allowing the use of Renewable diesel in generators and our truck engines. Many Data Centers and California fleet truck operators west of the Rockies are now using this fuel. Renewable Diesel performs like fossil diesel, with superior performance over biodiesel. It meets ASTM D975 and EN 15490 specifications in compliance with Cummins Diesel engines and most other OEMs. No, it is not 100% CO2 reduction like e-fuels but is 85% which is a step in the right direction until the H2 infrastructure and renewable energy power stations are built.🔌🔌

I’m for electric vehicles, but the carbon footprint for the battery car has a huge footprint.

I am impressed with your open mindedness toward energy solutions. Most innovations come from outside of the box, and people driven by a narrow and static ideology usually cannot recognize great discoveries.

That would be super cool. I really have trouble wrapping my head around the issue of having to "throw out" billions of current ICE vehicles to replace with electric. Being able to convert them would solve not all but some of the issues.

Nice Report. Efuel is a real good solution. not only co2 from air can be use, but also biomass material, or a combination of different sources and still produce reliable liquid fuel.

Worth mentioning e-fuels are cleaner burning, no NOx, so no smog

A few years ago, I learned how to make diesel fuel from oil. So I made it to run it in my truck until I couldn't get the cooking oil that I needed because everyone at that time was competing for what little cooking oil was available from restaurants. So then I started researching other ways to make it. I discovered that high quality biodiesel could be made from algae. I researched that method and found that it is actually easier to make it with algae than with cooking oil, because the algae could be grown in plastic raceways using just water and sunlight with a little CO2 supplementing. I would think that that could be the fuel of the future. I can build pulse jet engines that will burn biodiesel very well, and it also can run my diesel truck. Just a thought. I'll be moving soon to a location where I can set up my first algae farm. Maybe something that you might want to look into.

Hopefully you’re onto something real here!!! LOVE it!! In your description of the downsides of electric cars, you certainly brushed over the environmental issues with getting the materials to make the batteries in the first place, let alone recycle them later!! I’m a fan, but all these arbitrary deadlines that have no technology to back them up are ridiculous!!

One thing I have noticed, people are looking a hybrids, but most do not know there is a good alternative to those 20 to 30 miles per gallon cars, I average 42 to 52 town and highway in a mid sized car. With only 13 gallons of gas mine averages 500+ miles per tank, add that up with the new fuel source that should really help with the fossil fuel use and the environment. By the way, Good vid.

you did touch on this but you can make e-fuels with molten salt reactors, since they have much higher temps then old school water based reactors they are more efficient at it and can actually do it, also you just run the reactor at max capacity and make the fuels in low electricity demand times which makes it even cheaper to produce.

A few years there was all this hype about producing fuels from algae, and that algae farms would operate like oil refineries to produce fuel, can't help feel this idea will just wither away like that one!

This has to be the biggest, overlooked issue no one hears about. The main focus is transportation but no one mentions the billions of other machines, plant and equipment, still being made today all with ICEs. These machines have lifespans of 40-50 years. To scrap them prematurely is not good for the environment, fuel aside. If instead of governments, like in the UK, promoting new oil fields put that money into developing efuels and the power to produce them, that would do a whole lot more for the environment and economy. We need to shout out a lot harder ... this needs to be heard.

This span panel is the type of ad promotion we actually value that is related to your content. Bravo

I think we WILL see Green H2/Fuel Cell combination for Aircrafts/ Ships/ Heavy Vehicles. Because dragging the weight of empty batteries does not make any sense here.

As a technical detail, the Wright Brothers did not invent powered flight. The first motorized airplane was invented and flown by Hiram Maxim, the inventor of the Maxim machine gun. He has not worked out all of the controls, yet, so the Wright Brothers can be credited with the invention of controlled flight.
