The biggest lie of all time is the idea that resources are limited.

Every spacekike in the universe is rich, except for humans. The artificial imposition of resource scarcity is a long con for DNA conditioning, and it has deprived those of us who are actual royals

You're the guy that got abducted right? Is that something you're comfortable sharing about? I respectfully have a couple questions to ask you.

Tesla believed that electricity could be further separated into two parts.

In the 80s and 90s I lived in New Zealand. Many older cars were converted to run on natural gas, and almost every petrol station had a natural gas pump. The conversion was adding a tank to the trunk, a valve to switch between running off the gasoline tank or the natural gas, and a ring of gas jets between the air cleaner and the carburetor. When I returned to the US I looked in to converting my car to NG. It could be done, but there were no CNG pumps anywhere near me, or along highways. Now I drive by oil wells burning off the natural gas because it's not economical to capture.

Trucks can run on woodgas too, the issue is the explosivity of the fuel in it's natural state. Gasoline is more stable and safe.

I agree with you though, more options is better.

I see a lot of different city transits have buses that run on CNG, but they can return to their depot to refuel. I've read that there are a lot of CNG vehicles in Utah, and they are expanding the distribution of CNG. 20 years ago when I was seriously looking into it, someone (my brother with a PhD in physics) told me that if all the cars and trucks in the US converted to CNG the known reserves would only last about 500 years. But it would be an enormous investment to get CNG pumps at every gas station in the country. It shouldn't be that hard, lots of homes have natural gas, there must be some of that infrastructure that could be used.

This is why conservationists are idiots, that following a conservationist model of the economy you run out of resources and innovation before you develop new technologies which make greater efficiencies for the resources you currently have.

North America has all the oil they'll ever need. War for oil was a always a lie.

Western Europe does not have oil and China has hardly any at all. Trumpenjew offered to supply western Europe with endless natural gas and they said no. Poland said yes. Why should we innovate for China? It's absurd. They can do their own innovating or farm rice to death. I don't care.
