capitalized as Diesel engine) is an internal combustion engine that uses the heat of compression to initiate ignition to burn the fuel‚ which is injected into the combustion chamber. This is in contrast to spark-ignition engines such as a petrol engine (gasoline engine) or gas engine (using a gaseous fuel as opposed to gasoline)‚ which uses a spark plug to ignite an air-fuel mixture. The engine was developed by Rudolf Diesel in 1893. The diesel engine has the highest thermal efficiency of any regular

can be implemented‚ but an overall change in the dependence on transportation will be difficult. Society depends on transportation to a great extent‚ and even sky-rocketing fuel prices have not lessened usage. The nation is becoming vulnerable by it’s reliance on other countries for fuel and loans. The U.S. is importing fuel at an exponential rate.

The "fuel cell cars" currently being advertised are being touted as "having no emissions except water." In a limited sense that is‚ in fact‚ true. However‚ if the entire fuel cycle for the car is considered it most certainly is not. The fuel used by the fuel cell is hydrogen‚ very pure hydrogen. Combined with oxygen from the ambient air‚ the fuel cell produces electricity that powers an electric motor and other devices in the vehicle--just like the battery-driven electric vehicles already on the

fossil fuels are readily accessible. These fuels are easy to use‚ and a simple combustion procedure turns them into energy for running a vehicle‚ generating electricity and/or heat. Fossil fuels are currently a cheap source of energy and so are the methods of producing energy from them. With our present distribution networks‚ we can get fossil fuels of all kinds around the world. That makes it easy to employ them‚ no matter where you are. Thus‚ there is a huge dependence of fossil fuels. That means

These so called "creation myths" varied in complexity and origin but each held similar views that a "greater power" ultimately began humanity and its domain.

This technology would affect everyone in one way or another if correctly used. So we must ask if this technology is beneficial to us‚ how it might hurt us‚ and whether it is worth pursuing from an ethical stance. Background: Hydrogen has already been under the micro scope for many years as an alternative fuel source to us because of its abundance and power. We have simply
