fuel» for the body, rather than being stored
as fat.

Of course, we should
use as much electricity
directly as possible (e.g. in plug - in hybrid vehicles), but when we need dense chemical
fuels, this is a valid option.
As I've explained, there are in effect many buyers and many sellers in CO2E pricing, even if there is a government - enforced standard of delivering equal share equitably to all sellers per capita as there are different carbon intensities of essentially the same energy: electricity need not be produced from fossil fuels, and where it is, the fossil fuels may be less carbon intensive natural gas, or enriched through geothermal or solar hydrotreating to become less carbon intensive, or the CO2 emissions can be directly sequestered or used in coproduction to reduce net influx of CO

use 2012
as its base period.
Reprocessing and the
use of plutonium
as reactor
fuel are also far more expensive than
using uranium
fuel and disposing of the spent
fuel directly.
Most hydrogen is currently produced
using fossil
fuels (mostly natural gas) and
using fossil - derived hydrogen
as a
fuel on large scale is lunacy — far more efficient to
use fossil
fuels directly.
While they demonize fossil
fuel use and promise to rid us of this vital energy, the truth is that the availability of reliable, affordable power thanks to fossil
fuels is directly correlated with greatly improved health and longevity here in the USA, as Alex Epstein explains in his book, The Moral Case for Fossil F

«The Holy Grail of solar research is to
use sunlight efficiently and
directly to «split» water into its elemental constituents - hydrogen and oxygen - and then
use the hydrogen
as a clean
fuel,» said Gray.
The basic idea is very straightforward: place very large solar arrays into continuously and intensely sunlit Earth orbit (1,366 watts / meter squared), collect gigawatts of electrical energy, electromagnetically beam it to Earth, and receive it on the surface for
use either
as base load power via direct connection to the existing electrical grid, conversion into manufactured synthetic hydrocarbon
fuels, or
as low ‐ intensity broadcast power beamed
directly to consumers.»
France and Japan, on the other hand, routinely extract and reprocess plutonium for reuse
as reactor
fuel, but the dual -

directly into a storage repository.
I think you'd be much better off just drying and pelletizing the cellulosic material and

Even in the normally dismally Scottish weather it is possible to have a building working off grid

fuel.
