largesse, Fonterra cheated. They sold the credits at full price and bought dirt cheap credits from places like Russia and Ukraine which did not represent actual emissions reductions – in other words, they were fraudulent. They used these junk credits to pay their ETS obligation to the ...
to negotiate a steep grade, given that it seemed unlikely the car would ever reach the summit without trailing assorted gears and rubber bands in its wake. Meantime, the Versa’s interior’s chief feature was its sheer cheapness: in contrast to my ’97 Sentra, it seemed that every feature...
economy, as the discovery of cheap, abundant oil and the development of the internal combustion engine cause the coal-fired steam engine to be abandoned. Coal thereafter is used almost exclusively in power generation and steel production. Sign in to download full-size image Coal heating Homeowner...
I wonder what will happen to the politics (e.g. glOBaL warMiNg) and econonomics (eg. "use coal ?!?!- oil is cheap and plentifuyl right now") as Energy Desperation grows and we begin Fuel Twitching??? What happens to the PrOjECteD COAL supply, demand, production etc when the Hordes...
After getting rid of the Celica I was without a car for a month or so. I think dad was tired of me borrowing his car to hang out with friends. He again turned to the local streets to buy a car for his son, this turned up one day completely unexpected. ...
To investigate the EP response characteristics of gas-bearing coal during deformation and fracture, a test system to monitor multi-parameters of gas-bearing coal under load was designed. The results showed that abundant EP signals were generated during the loading process and the EP response ...
One of the hardestthings to grasp about the climate crisis is the connectedness of all things. One recent drizzly afternoon, I drove from Charleston,West Virginia, to the John Amoscoal-fired power plant on the banks of the Kanawha River, near the town of Nitro. In the rain, the plant ...

Coal is (relatively) cheap to move by ship, but almost impossible to move by pipeline: it is moved by rail or road, both of which cost a lot more than ships on a ton-mile basis. Much of the world's coal "reserves" are far inland and far from markets (think Mongolia, Wyoming, ...
It may also eventually be possible, to put them through a cheap process to reuse them. All the valuable materials in them can be recycled either way and already nearly all car batteries new and old are recycled. Eventually though, the batteries in a car might last as long as the car,...
