Environment - August 2006

Arrange to allow dry sand, from the sand dunes in gulf region, in huge quantity, to slide through huge silky PVC or Tin pipes from a very big slope/height to gain tremendous force, and allow it to fall at the end of huge sized shafts of the Generators. Each end of the shaft arm is designed so that it should be able to receive minimum of 1 Ton of such surging sand and the arms should be able to withstand this weight and the force. Will it not rotate the mechanism giantly? Wherever labour force is required, it is cheap and aplenty -- to remove the accumulated sand or to reach the same sand to the said height. Sounds Don Quixoteic? Will not save Diesel here?

Is it true that the Brazilian rain forest is being burned to plant cane to make alchohol, and the same sort of thing is happening in Indonesia and Malaysia to produce palm oil for biodiesel?

I am trying to find a natural way of sending water to the overhead tank of any without using any means of eletrical method. I mean to say, using natural energy like a smaller version of windmill, so as to add some attachment..so that one can send water from a ground reservoir to an over head tank of any house.

I live in Texas and every year for several years it is just getting hotter and hotter. I know about the global warming but...how hot do you really think that it is going to get in the upcoming years? Because it is supposed to be 105 today but it has been up to 112 this summer. I am sick of it and ready to move to Colorado.

Well, that is a draw back about using grain based fuel for burning in your car. Regardless of whether it is a wheat or corn blight (just another opportunity for terrorists to exploit) Even a drought or other severe weather can affect crops. What are we gonna use - our abundant crops of Spuds instead? Won't that have the effect of not having fries with your burger, not to mention making a big dent in vodka production for human consumption.
