*Moved - Alternative (green) Engines

[Rubbond]

On this CO2 issue - when indeed will people (i.e.the media) wake up to the
fact that CO2 emissions amount to nothing more than how much fuel is
consumed? All hydrocarbons burn to produce carbon dioxide and water, and
certain amounts of carbon monoxide, carbon, and oxidised forms of various
impurities such as sulphur in the fuel and lubricating oils used.
Carbon dioxide and water are naturally occuring molecules and essential to
life here on earth. God forbid if car manufacturers in desperation start to
reduce CO2 emissions by producing more CO!
I'm a great fan at the moment of diesel engines because they are so reliable
and fuel-efficient, but when will the car manufacturers or the media tell us
exactly what does come out of the exhaust pipe, so we can make an informed
choice?
