Those consequences range from devastating public health effects due to automobile emissions (asthma, lung cancer, throat infections, etc.) to the rapid alteration of our planet's own atmosphere...

| 7/14/2004 - It seems that no matter how advanced notebook computers get, their battery life remains at a standstill: 2-3 hours from most models, regardless of price.

| 5/7/2004 7:10:24 PM - People rave about the hybrid electric Toyota Prius. As this review from

First off, hydrogen vehicles won't become a reality until consumers can refuel the cars from hydrogen...
|
| 10/1/2003 2:06:10 PM - This is going to drive electric companies crazy: residential fuel cells that run on hydrogen gas (propane works just fine) and generate electricity for the home. Availability of these fuel cells is just around the corner, and when they shift into mass production, you'll see an increasing number of households...
|
| 9/30/2003 4:46:48 PM - As the US seems to be stranded in the oil economy, the rest of the world is taking great strides to define the future of mobile energy.
