| Air-powered Go-cart Hits The Track It’s Sunday afternoon. Thousands of fans cheer wildly as race cars fly by at speeds nearing 200 mph for 200 laps. They whiz down the pit road making pit stops, changing tires and refueling. Only, the tanks are not being filled with gas; they’re being filled with air. That scenario may sound futuristic, but it may not be long before we see air-powered engines take to the track. A group of mechanical engineering students have already started the journey down that road. |
| Support the Markey-Platts Fuel Economy Reform Act (HR 1506) and the Udall-Platts Renewable Electricity Standard (HR 969) A Call To Action! I know I usually ask you to click on a link and add your name to a letter to your local rep, and in 18 seconds you’re done taking action. This time I’m going to ask you to take a minute or two to call your local rep. At this site they will get the numbers for you AND they even have a script of what you should say. Again, this is in support of improved fuel economy standards and a commitment to modern energy solutions (ie. wind, solar, and hydro). A sentence from the script. |

| BEEP BEEP–Honk if You’re Efficient! I’ve declared my love for acronyms in a previous post, aptly titled ‘I Love Acronyms’. Today my energy efficient side and my acronym-loving side were happy to read about BOMA’s (Building Owners and Managers Association) BEEP (the BOMA Energy Efficiency Program). BOMA’s BEEP has been focusing on “low and no cost” strategies for energy efficiency on office buildings. If BEEP goals are met the 9 billion square feet of office and retail space in the U.S. would cut energy consumption one third by 2012. BEEP estimates that the 33% cut in energy consumption “equates to $7.2 billion, and is readily. |

| Fresh Water For The World’s Poorest Lack of water causes great distress among the population in large parts of Africa and Asia. Small decentralized water treatment plants with an autonomous power supply can help solve the problem: They transform salty seawater or brackish water into pure drinking water. Large industrial plants for the desalination of seawater deliver 50 million cubic meters of fresh water every day — particularly in the coastal cities of the Middle East. However, the technology is complex and consumes large amounts of energy. |
