100 million tons of fossil fuel CO2
emissions PER DAY
have to be stopped to stop Climate Change's growth.
THEN
we can begin REVERSING
Climate Change.

Quick slide show explanation.
The abstract cheaper, cleaner fuels idea sketched above is shown below using
proven modern industrial equipment.
Whichever energy you want, whenever you want it, in whatever volumes you want.
---- A combination of clean energy producing technologies for stopping Climate Change's growth.
The key is exploiting nuclear's far cheaper raw heat.
Mass production of Energy Parks should bring substantial reductions in cost along with improved
performance and reliability. Think mass produced
airplanes and ships. Clean Energy Parks have more hooks on them than a fishing
lure.

(Plasma torches break matter down into it's
basic atoms. Although rare on earth, plasma, (think lightning and Star Trek
weapons),
it is the fourth state of matter. Plasma is the most common form of matter in space.)
It's unrealistic to think liquid fossil fuels - oil and natural gas - can be
completely replaced by carbon-neutral cellulosic fuels - perhaps 80% is more
realistic. Nuclear will replace most coal, electric batteries and hydrogen fuel
cells will replace some oil and gas fuels.
Would it be worth living with nuclear's
problems if that's what it took to end Climate Change's problems? Climate Change
cannot be stopped without enlisting nuclear.
Of the $556.7
million green-leaning foundations spent from 2011-15, “not
a single grant supported work on promoting or reducing the cost of nuclear
energy.”

This website is based upon the
understanding that fossil fuels will always be preferred as long as clean energy fuels are more expensive.
Nuclear is the only key to making cheap clean fuels.
Nuclear will soon be everywhere like jet
engines. Trump has torn the U.S.' "Nuclear Umbrella" protection promise to
tatters. At least 50 more countries now don't trust the U.S. and have
outlined both nuclear power and weapons programs in their development budgets.
The world also has perhaps 200 thousand stationary diesel engines in the 2,000
and under horsepower class cranking out electricity and pumping water in rural
locations. A swarm of tiny nuclear reactors are being developed to replace these
oil-burners.
So the world would be very prudent to advocate using thorium denatured uranium (you can't make weapons
from this blend) to build molten salt nuclear reactors to fight, - and possibly
stop - Climate Change.

Those of you old enough to recall the island-hopping strategy used against the Japanese in the war in the Pacific will recognize that converting thousands of existing coal power plants into Clean Energy Parks is a similar strategic choking assault against Climate Change.
To stop Climate Change: Electrify
everything possible, use cheap, clean non-fossil fuels to provide all other energy needs.

(Below) U.S. Coal Power Plant Shutdown Schedule.
Red - 2000 to 2014, Yellow - 2014 to 2050.
The entire world is covered with similar
coal power plant sites about to be shut down either due to emissions or worn
out. We couldn't be more fortunate.
There are about 50,000 more or less identical coal power plant sites worldwide
that could make clean energy manufacturing locations.
No magic to tripling a coal power plant site's power output. Just install a
three or more times as powerful and much smaller modular molten salt reactor
(SMR) adjacent to the old coal power plant.
Lights = Cities = As many as a dozen coal power plants for
each light.
Gasification Facilities
Decarbonizing the world pronto means mass producing the new, small, higher temperature nuclear reactors by the thousands shipyard style and locating them everywhere on the world's existing coal power plant site properties as a way to end coal burning and begin the manufacture of carbon-neutral cellulosic oil and natural gas combustion fuels quickly.
Already, there are over 50 different baby nuclear reactors incubating in technology's development nest. You're bound to find several you like. The three I point out on this website are all very different, yet all very desirable for different applications such as producing electricity, extreme heat, hydrogen, desalinated water, carbon-neutral combustion fuels.
