what can we do stop the CO2 that comes from the cars?

Question

what can we do to stop it or to have less of it?

Answer 1

stop driving cars....duh

Answer 2

To reduce CO2 from cars - Get a more efficient vehicle.

To Stop CO2 from cars - don't drive, which is not possible. In the future, move to all renewable energy and drive electric cars. Electric would be better, less infrastructure change and easier to produce.

Answer 3

There is a product you can use to reduce emissions 75 to 100% in vehicles. I can also tell you I originally thought this was the biggest scam in the world. The EPA has tried over 100 products for improving gas mileage and the bottom line is they didn't work. There was a gas pill out of Florida the media investigated and it turned out to be a mothball.

I ignored the requests of people in the company to look into their product and the only reason I did is that an engineer I respect tried it. Then a combustion specialist went after them expecting fraud and Jerry Lang got 12.1% mileage increase and 75% emission reductions in his light diesel truck.

I watched a news media oulet investigate and they got 36% better mileage. I told them to send me the pill and I sent it to people that I knew. One professional reported 100 extra miles from a Ford Focus.

These guys did something pretty spectacular because all they do is make your fuel burn hotter so there is less emissions, better performance and less fuel consumed.

The whole world is trying to build better engines, carburation, etc which requires lots of engineering and emissions to produce. Imagine making a car produce less emissions for 2 dollars(thats it)

Every state, province and country has commited to reducing emisisons by 15%, 30% except in 20 years. Go to this website and read what Jerry Lang had to say and there are emissions tests.

Answer 4

All we can do is convert to non-fossil fuels. Even then, co2 is a product of every combustion process except pure hydrogen/ oxygen. But green fuels like corn or sugar cane don't ADD to the co2 load because it only pulled that carbon out of the air earlier the same year. Even electric cars use whatever fuels that fire the local electric power generators.

Answer 5

The easiest thing to do, to get a car to NOT make any C02 emissions, WHILE KEEPING THE ABILITY TO DRIVE THE CAR, is to run it on Ammonia. Ammonia is one nitrogen atom and 3 hydrogen atoms, there is no carbon to make CO2 with. The exhaust does not smell like ammonia, because, that's right, you break up the ammonia by burning it in the engine. The exhaust products are water and nitrogen.

Another more readily available idea, which reduces but does not eliminate CO2, is to run your car on LPG.

Answer 6

All current fuels are hydrocarbons (gas, deisel, biofuel, ethanol, naturual gas, propane) and therefore produce CO2. Hydrogen is produced by electrolysis and since most electricty in the US is made by coal and/or natural gas, hydrogen vehicles are indirectly big producers of CO2. Same for electric vehicle unless you buy green power or use solar rechargers.

The way to reduce/eliminate CO2 from cars for now is realistically to drive less (bike, walk, etc.) and/or buy more fuel efficient or hybrid cars.

Answer 7

CO2 coming from cars is just a part of the problem, the larger part is the C02 being released from the poles as the ice melts which will dwarf anything man could contribute, man has initiated the chain reaction but nature will finish it.

Answer 8

An internal combustion engine produces CO2 and other harmful chemicals. With our dependence on Fossil fuels and the absence of affordable clean burning engines the only thing we can do is Drive less, use public transportation.

Answer 9

As long as gasoline or biodiesel or alcohol is burned as the fuel, its going to turn to CO2. The alternatives might be hydrogen or a total electric car, neither would necessarily create more CO2.

Answer 10

Walk.

Let's get real: They can improve public transportation in metropolitan ares, but most of us live in places where there is no public transportation and the weather isn't good for walking or riding bikes to work. We are going to drive cars.

Fortunately, cars aren't the biggest problem. What we need to get rid of is the methane gas -- which means killing all the cows. Good luck!

Answer 11

If you are concerned, you can:

1) Drive less
2) Use a more fuel efficient car
3) Use a golf cart or some other electric vehicle

Me, I don't think it's a big issue, so "we" are not going to do anything.
