Diesels fuels are now giving off cleaner emissions New Legislation The 2010 Emissions Regulations passed in by the EPA demand major reductions in the NOx and NMHC emissions produced by diesel engines. Under the new regulations, diesel engines manufactured after January 1, 2010, are required to emit less than 0.14 grams per brake horsepower hour (g/bhp-hr) of non-methane hydrocarbons (NMHC) …

The sun’s rays generates massive amounts of energy which are transmitted down to the earth’s surface. Whenever the sun’s light reach the earth’s surface the intensity of the heat directly from the sun’s rays is not as hot because some of the heat happens to be rerouted before it reaches the earth’s atmosphere. When the direct sun light is hot …

The sun generates enormous amounts of heat that are transmitted down to the earth’s surface. When the sun’s rays reach the earth’s surface the intensity of the heat directly from the sun’s rays is not as hot basically because some of the heat happens to be rerouted right before it actually reaches the earth’s atmosphere. When the direct sun light …

The sun’s light gives off immense amounts of heat which are transmitted down to the earth’s surface. The moment the sun’s light reach the earth’s surface the concentration of the heat directly coming from the sun’s rays isn’t as hot since some of the heat is really rerouted right before it actually gets to the earth’s atmosphere. When the sunlight …
