harmful gases that vehicles are giving off. Forget ethanol or biodiesel. The next big thing in automotive fuel may very well be hydrogen. Automakers rapidly are closing in on making hydrogen fuel cell vehicles an everyday fact of life‚ with several test models set to debut over the next few years. Hydrogen fuel cells to power vehicles are desirable‚ experts say‚ because hydrogen is a renewable fuel that can be used to create electricity to run cars. A chemical reaction between oxygen and hydrogen produces

requires “burning” food for energy. How much energy is released when food burns in the body? How is the calorie content of food determined? Let’s investigate the calorie content of different snack foods‚ such as popcorn‚ peanuts‚ marshmallows‚ and cheese puffs.

Fossil fuels are being used up at a faster rate than they can regenerate. The British Petroleum report provides alarming figures. At the current rate of consumption‚ the coal reserves on Earth will be spent within 110 years. Global reserves of oil and natural gas are even lower‚ and will be spent within the next fifty years respectively. Despite these statistics suggest that fossil fuels are a reliable long-term energy source‚ these numbers are misleading. Due to global population and energy
