Climate change is top of mind, and hybrid cars are becoming an icon for environmental awareness among Canadian consumers. But hybrid technology has evolved quickly, and it’s still a mystery for many Canadians. More: continued here

People everywhere are scrambling around to find a solution that works for them in terms of the high gas prices all over the country. Some have traded in their gas hog SUVs, while others have tried gas additives that their makers claim are the answer to gas price prayers. More: continued here

Hybrid vehicles are a cross between traditional fuel-powered vehicles and electric vehicles. Combining an electric motor, a battery pack, as well as an internal combustion engine, these components work together to deliver power to a hybrids wheels. Common technologies include idle stop which allows the engine to automatically shut off and restart while the electric motor take’s over to prevent …

Most often when considering the purchase of a new car the last thing that comes to mind is that it can actually be financially beneficial. In the case of buying a new hybrid car it can be a financially sound purchase. Since their beginning hybrid cars have been used as a tax credit. Luckily for hybrid owners who bought their …

Toyota’s concept car, the new FT-HS, will essentially be a hybrid sports car come to life. Many sports car enthusiasts will be excited about this car that Toyota debuted in Detroit, Michigan, earlier in 2007. Their new Toyota FT-HS will be a sports car that is also a hybrid. More: continued here

With more than 950,000 hybrid vehicles sold globally, the technology has truly become mainstream. As hybrids have evolved, Canadian drivers no longer have to choose between their environmental values or luxury, power and style. Today, hybrid cars are a practical and preferred choice for many.

One of the precepts that the scientific method prides itself in is that experimental. Procedures can be duplicated by evaluating scientists and the resulting data is reproducible i.e. the data obtained should be the same and should deviate only within a prescribed limit. But Pons and Fleischmann were vague about how their cold fusion reactor worked. More: continued here

Google.org to fund more than $10 million to accelerate plug-in hybrid and vehicle-to-grid technology MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. (June 18, 2007) — Google.org, the philanthropic arm of Google Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOG), today announced the RechargeIT initiative (http://www.rechargeit.org) that aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and oil dependence by accelerating the adoption of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (“plug-ins”). As part of this …

DOE Secretary Samuel W. Bodman Names Selected Solar Technology Projects During Visit to Konarka Headquarters, Lowell, Massachusetts Lowell, Mass. – March 8, 2007 – Konarka Technologies, Inc., an innovator in development and commercialization of Power Plasticâ„¢, a material that converts light to energy, today announced the company is one of 13 selected industry-led solar technology projects to be awarded funding …

The news media are now on board. Time to ramp up the awareness and education for the rest of the public. Alternative energy and going green are now not fringe elements anymore. They must be applied and improved if we are to go forward in our world without polluting ourselves further. Read this from the SF Gate Everything brown is …

Alternative energy for vehicles has come a long way, but unfortunately we are not yet at a point where we can go without gasoline. Hybrid cars, however, are the first step to the future. More: continued here

It makes sense to have an energy efficient home and to use solar power if possible. The Earth only gets about 2 Billionth of the energy of the Sun, but that is enough to divide amongst all the homes on the surface of the planet. It is wise for people to get an energy audit, perhaps some infrared photos to …

Solar energy is gaining in popularity, with more people asking questions about converting to home solar. Home solar is clean. Home solar is green. Home solar is almost entirely maintenance free. More: continued here

Of all the forms of energy that humanity has developed in the past few hundred years of mass production, chemical energy is by far the most commonly used. Whether in the batteries that power all of our handheld devices and their chemical reactions or in the millions of uses we’ve developed for fossil fuels and their numerous chemical reactions, chemical …

A Light – Emitting – Diode or LED is a unique type of diode that uses a semiconductor device. There have been many developments, experiments, and lots of research done on the production and benefits of LED lighting. A Light – Emitting – Diode or LED is a unique type of diode that uses a semiconductor device. The semiconductor – …

Many believe that the Star Trek Teletransporters are coming. Many advanced physicists, will not deny it and agree that someday it should potentially be possible. Are you interested in discussing “teleportation” theory, which would be accomplished outside of the future hyper-mind’s ability to assimilate and stimulate particle spin or ion charge to create or disperse matter?
