    There was something like this years ago that shell(?) gas bought for a few million/billion dollers and sat on it so it didnt ruin their markets.. I hope this changes cars and fuel as we know it 3$ for gas in MI is stupidly expensive.

    I bet you need 2kg of uranium to power the mechanism that turn water into that.

    I doubt it would take that much Uranium to power it lol, maybe not really sure. Imo that guy is a god among men. If the world swicthed to his engine, global warming would decline steeply which in turn would cause other negative effects to decline. That guys one invention would pretty much have a ripple effect on the entire planet over the next 200 years. Mostly for the better probably

    Global warming is a myth.

    Ok. You keep telling uself that. Global warming is not a myth. Lol ive seen the same argument in other threads. Flat out your wrong, glbal warming is CO2 in the atmoshpere that traps other gases and thus creates a greenhouse effect raising the global temperature scale. This was and is caused by the industrial revolution of steam power. Guess what, steams main biproduct is CO2. It continues today in the same way and from car exhaust machines and burning ot trees etc.

    So no it isnt a myth, but you keep telling urself that.

    Well, I was sarcastic about the quantity, but you do need some kind of power to make water do stuff like that. What I was wondering is how much energy you need to activate it.


    Water ---> "???" ---> Water can't create energy, and it can't be a self sufficient reaction since water is stable . Unless he is hiding us some magical property water have, you need AT LEAST as much energy to start that reaction than you will end up getting.

    He said he used electricty for it, but how does he get that electricity? If it's by burning some sort of fuel, the whole process is pointless.

    If you are going to argue at least be right all the way. Steam is H2O nothing else, you are telling me that CO2 escapes from my kettle when I boil water? I agree with you but your argument is flawed and fails!

    He probably meant smoke, not steam


    Anyway, global warming is real. Just look what happened on Venus when the quantity of CO2 atmosphere hit the point of no return. 700celcius+ and acid sulfuric rain.

    It won't be as drastic on Earth since we are farther from the Sun than venus, but I'm pretty sure we can kill ourselves that way.

    Yes it does, it's a chemical reaction and all chemical reactions "create" energy.

    (Of course energy can neither be created nor destroyed but in lamen terms, yes, Energy is created.)

    You fail.....read the whole post steam the biproduct of steam power is CO2 you know the smoke that comes out of a locomotive....thats a combination of steam and CO2. Next time pay attention and read the whole post. Seeing as boiling water uses no Carbon whatsoever (like coal does, ya know when u use it for steam u obvioulsy missed that day in chem class

    Run to point A to point B and come back to A. Tell me how you didn't spend any energy. Take fuel, burn it, and make some fuel with what you just burned, and explain me how you "gained" energy. In the optimal circumstance,you can break even, but you can never gain energy.


    The guy make it sound like he only need water to create energy, and what result is energy + more water. This is not possible.

    Pretty much it uses electricity to spereate the molecules of H2O into O2 and H and Id assume it burns the hydrogen? Im not sure what the biproduct would be but if its burns "clean" id say prolly O2. Really no clue though i didnt build it lol.

    .

    There is no bi product if you burn H2 + O together >_> 2*H2+O2= 2*H2O
