The U.N. Security Council’s mandate, which authorized NATO’s military operations to “protect civilians” in Libya, was just as specious as the one that allowed the Bush administration to invade Iraq to destroy stockpiles of nonexistent weapons of mass destruction. Just as George W. Bush and Dick Cheney were focused on securing Iraq’s oil for their Big Oil cronies, U.S. and NATO forces attacked Libya to take out Muammar Gaddafi, who preferred to sell his oil to Russia and China.

Saddam Hussein went into hiding after Baghdad fell and was subsequently looted. His capture and eventual execution came many months later. In the immediate aftermath of Gaddafi’s fall, amid all of the chaos, the only clear move was made by Tripoli to favor NATO allies as the new customers for Libyan oil.

Today, NATO gloats of “no collateral damage” in its Libyan operations. Yet, an estimated 10,000 mostly civilians it meant to protect are dead, while entire cities lie in ruin.

After nine years of U.S. occupation, Iraq’s economy remains in shambles amid rampant official corruption, with every sign of greater instability when the last of the U.S. troops are gone. Libya will likely remain a near-failed state for the foreseeable future as competing political and tribal forces fight for ascendancy.

Big Oil is in no hurry to see those two countries, or other oil-producing nations in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), become stable, prosperous and productive. In fact, the more they remain mired in misery the easier it will be to exact from them better oil concessions. Sudan is spared the “Arab Spring” treatment simply because that country is sufficiently corrupt and dysfunctional to be putty in the Big Oil’s hands.

America currently imports the largest portion of its oil from Canada’s ecologically disastrous shale oil extractions. Massive MENA oil reserves are earmarked for long-term exploitation when this and similar sources reach depletion.

The United States and its European allies have removed such despots as Saddam Hussein, Hosni Mubarak and Muammar Gaddafi, while clamoring for the leaders of Syria and Yemen to step down under the spurious “Arab Spring” banner. Yet they have no fear that MENA nation states, in the wake of dictatorial rules, would become sufficiently strong to control their own oil reserves and to pose a serious threat to America’s regional hegemony.

The Pentagon’s planners know very well that after many decades of abject dictatorship, in lands long beset by tribal, ethnic and sectarian rivalries, the preconditions for strong civil societies are dim at best. The idea of a Marshall Plan for MENA has been toyed with, mainly to deflect from real regional intentions. Yet even a sincere rescue package is bound to fail.

The United States initiated the Marshall Plan in 1947, infusing a war-ravaged Western Europe with more than $12 billion (about $107 billion today). As late as 1964, a German confided in the Polish writer Wiltold Gombrowicz, “We needed America so badly after the debacle . . . and its spirit even more than its military force and dollars. America slid over us like a steamroller, leveling, democratizing, simplifying.”

East Europeans were less receptive of the “velvet revolution”—presumably the model for the “Arab Spring”—which ensued after Mikhail Gorbachev as the last Soviet leader and President Ronald Reagan agreed on a geopolitical blueprint to replace the Soviet Union and its satellite nations. Yet after faltering starts, Europeans who had long suffered under communism, proved sufficiently educated, skilled and foresighted to embrace their emancipation.

MENA, however, largely lacks both German clarity and Eastern Europe’s enlightened receptivity. Tunisia, which held successful elections over the weekend, is small, geopolitically insignificant and holds negligible oil reserves. It may be just lucky enough to support a nascent civil society. Achieving the same will be appreciably more difficult in larger North African countries and harder still in the Middle East.

While autocrats have fallen in the African countries of Tunisia, Egypt and Libya, despots in Syria, Yemen and Bahrain have proven more resilient, partly due to a growing sense in the immediate region that years of sanctions, followed by “liberation,” have inflicted far more damage on the lives of Iraqis than Hussein’s years of tyranny ever did.

Bombs a spring do not make, nor will civil societies flourish from the arid soil of hatred, ignorance and poverty.

It is up to the people in the region to realize that they have to pull themselves up by their bootstraps. This is not going to be easy for nations long under the thumb of dictators, torn by internal divisiveness and haunted by the long shadow of colonialism.

GLOBAL INVESTORS MANAGING $20 TRILLION
IN ASSETS URGE CLIMATE ACTION
By Robert Kropp, October 21, 2011(condensed and revised)

It will require $500 billion a year in clean energy investment to keep climate change from increasing global temperatures by two degrees Celsius. If global warming increases by that amount, not only will some of the impacts become irreversible, climate scientists have been warning for years; in fact, impacts such as extreme weather events will multiply.

It is because of this impending crisis that world leaders agreed to a two degrees Celsius limit in global warming at the COP16 meeting in Cancun last year. But the agreement has been followed by an absence of regulatory enforcement, especially here in the US, and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in 2010 were the highest ever recorded.

Furthermore, "levels of investments in low-carbon technology and infrastructure are substantially lower than the $500 billion per year deemed necessary," a coalition of institutional investors stated today.
The 2011 Global Investor Statement on Climate Change, issued by the United Nations' Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI), has been endorsed by 285 global investors representing more than $20 Trillion in assets. Investor groups calling for public policies to stimulate private sector investment include the Investor Network on Climate Risk (INCR), the Institutional Investors Group on Climate Change (IIGCC), and the Investors Group on Climate Change (IGCC).

In particular, the statement calls for the adoption of clear emissions reduction targets, the creation of financial incentives that "shift the risk-reward balance in favour of low-carbon assets", and the development of policies that accelerate the development of low carbon technologies.

The statement has been orchestrated by the US-based Investor Network on Climate Risk (INCR), the European Institutional Investors Group on Climate Change (IIGCC) and the Investors Group on Climate Change (IGCC) in Australia and New Zealand, alongside the United Nations Environment Programme Finance Initiative (UNEP FI), and the Advisory Council of the Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI).

According to the group, the statement represents the largest coalition of international investors, by both number and assets under management, to demand action on climate change.

"There is increasing understanding and agreement amongst asset managers that in a world of seven billion people, rising to nine billion by 2050, there will be more pressure put on the planet and weak infrastructure is not going to deliver the standards of living we want," he said. "[That means] future investment in low carbon areas is going to become more plentiful and more lucrative."
Stephanie Pfeifer, Executive Director at the IIGCC, said that low carbon investment was largely dependent on the policy environment created by governments.

Paul Clements Hunt, head of UNEP FI, added that measures to drive low carbon investment could offer a means of ending the global economic downturn.

"The type of smart finance we are calling for, one that clears the way for the low-carbon economy's vast business opportunities, could prompt the reversal of the current climate of economic insecurity," he said. "It holds the potential to act as a major driver of growth and job creation."

The statement was welcomed by the head of the UN climate change secretariat, Christiana Figueres, who said vocal support from private investors could help give governments "the confidence and the knowledge" to put effective low carbon incentives and policy mechanisms in place.

The move comes just days ahead of the launch of a similar call to action from the Corporate Leaders Group, which is urging businesses to sign up to its Two Degree Challenge Communiqué calling on governments to step up efforts to limit rising global temperatures.


GLOBAL ENERGY AND NATURAL RESOURCES
BY: MANFRED ZYSK, M.E. – October 06, 2011
PUBLICATION IS AUTHORIZED - WEBSITE: www.MZ-Energy.com

Prince Charles of Wales is correct by stating that we need to take care of this planet, if we expect to survive. This means that we need to develop new energy to replace diminishing fossil fuels, we need to control global carbon dioxide emissions, stop deforestation, make agriculture more productive and make our overall environment more livable and survivable during global climate changes.


Arctic sea ice thickness for 2010 had the lowest volume on record, and this year (2011) is on track to set a new record. An investigation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology found Arctic sea ice was thinning four times faster than predicted by the climate models relied on by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).

Scientists have linked ocean warming and ice loss to changes in weather patterns including weather changes in other parts of the globe, and suggest related increases in air pressure above the Arctic has pushed cold air further south and contributed to the extreme northern winters in the past two years. There is evidence the release of fresh water from melting ice could also change ocean circulation patterns between the North Pole and equator through the North Atlantic Ocean.

The NSIDC recently published evidence that warming could trigger the release of billions of tons of methane greenhouse gases as permafrost melts and exposes leafed and woody material that have been buried and decayed for thousands of years in the Arctic. The center has estimated a “tipping point” dramatically accelerating the pace of climate change could come within 20 years.

The UK Guardian in February 2011 published: “Saudi Arabia may not be able to raise production as much as claimed, and its reserves may be overstated by 40%.” Saudi Arabia tells us that they have lots of oil, but if we look at graphs of their historical production, there is nothing that looks like an upward trend. In fact, recent production is lower than it was in the late 1970’s and early 1980’s, and the Energy Exports Databrowser shows that 2009 Saudi Arabia Oil Exports decreased by 16%. The United States and NATO Countries’ war efforts over the control of oil in the Mid-East Countries and in Africa are causing huge unexpected economic consequences and unforeseen debts.

Several Mid-East countries have overstated their oil reserves by about 30% to 40% or so, which means that since the United States Dollar and United States Foreign Trade is linked to Arab oil with payments in dollars, then the US Dollar currency and trade are on unstable footing when global oil is being depleted and when global oil prices skyrocket.

With present population growth, the total global energy supply in 20 years needs to reach approximately 12 to 15 Terawatts (1012), but present and existing energy resources amount to an estimated 4.2 Terawatts, including all new energy resources, will amount to only a total of 7.7 Terawatts. This is an energy shortage of 4.3 Terawatts to 7.3 Terawatts in only 20 years.

Global energy in 20 years will experience an energy shortfall of approximately 38% to 48% percent, unless a new and inexpensive energy resource is created and developed with an energy emergency style program such as with my Hydrogen Energy Regeneration Systems and Processes.

NDCF REPORT: THE HIDDEN COST OF IMPORTED OIL
The National Defense Council Foundation (NDCF), an Alexandria, Virginia-based research and educational institution has completed its year-long analysis of the “hidden cost” of imported oil. The NDCF project represents the most comprehensive investigation of the military and economic penalty our undue dependence on imported oil exacts from the U.S. economy. Included in this economic toll are:

• Almost $49.1 billion in annual defense outlays to maintain the capability to defend the flow of Persian Gulf Oil – the equivalent of adding $1.17 to the price of a gallon of gasoline;
• The loss of 828,400 jobs in the U.S. economy;
• The loss of $159.9 billion in GNP annually;
• The loss of $13.4 billion in federal and state revenues annually;
• Total economic penalties of from $297.2 to $304.9 billion annually.

If reflected at the gasoline pump, these “hidden costs” would raise the price of a gallon of gasoline to over $5.28, a fill-up would be over $105.


One striking figure was the cost of the periodic oil shocks the U.S. has experienced over the past three decades which NDCF estimates at from over $2.2 Trillion to almost $2.5 Trillion.


Prior to completion the study underwent an exhaustive peer review by a panel comprised of seventeen individuals with a broad range of expertise including representatives from government, industry and major environmental organizations.


In addition to detailing the costs of America’s import dependence, the NDCF report also outlines the benefits of shifting the U.S. transportation sector to non-petroleum derived fuels.

In 1999, the cost of one barrel of oil was $12, but in 2008 oil prices reached $140 a barrel and America was spending about $700 billion for foreign oil, equaling the greatest transfer of wealth in history. That figure has decreased some while oil prices have retreated, but the U.S. is still dependent on foreign nations for nearly 70 percent of its oil, representing a continuing national security and national economic threat. Total imports of all oil products amount to approx. $440 Billion in 2011.


With the industrialization of the global economy, various vital natural resources are being depleted such as the water supply for growing food, and large amounts of water are being polluted without regard to public usage or safety. The huge global energy consumption, energy depletion and future demand of fossil fuel are becoming inadequate to support the global economy much longer.

Nuclear power, 83% of uranium is imported by the U.S. The U.S. has 7% of world uranium deposits. The Global Uranium deposits amount to 5 million tons that are supposed to last for about 70 years. Present uranium consumption amount to 67,000 tons/year, but at about 40 years of supply and consumption, the remaining uranium may not be mined due to the hoarding, inevitable and pending collapse of the Nuclear Industry, and the cessation of uranium exports.
In 10 years, expected annual demand of uranium consumption is estimated to total about 88,000 tons per year. A nuclear power plant investment break-even point is 15+ years before any profits are made, then what will the cost for nuclear power be in 10 years, 20 years, 30 years, or 40 years? Since 2008, the price of copper increased by approximately 500%.

Solar energy, wind, nuclear power and any other energy resources combined are not sufficient to supply our growing global energy needs. Energy is the most vital and important resource, which then enables the human race to use and process all other natural resources, including agriculture products.


In the early 1960’s, I realized the coming global energy crisis, and I researched for a solution of this impending global energy problem, because without energy, the entire world economy would simply collapse. An analysis of all energy resources with their useable energy values, including all combined fossil fuel resources and nuclear power were not physically adequate to meet the future global energy demands. Solar energy, wind and nuclear power for generating electricity are just not adequate to replace our global usage of fossil fuel and to fulfill our global future energy needs. Solar energy, wind and nuclear power all have serious limitations and problems that need to be viewed according to their usefulness and their long-term total value. Solar energy, wind and nuclear power can only produce a limited amount of energy and little can be done to change our predicament that would affect the present and future global energy demands.


The only available energy resource that would last hundreds of years and meet future global energy demands is the hydrogen in ocean waters (11%), and the hydrogen in fresh waters such as in rivers and lakes which contain 10% hydrogen. This would require large volumes of hydrogen extraction from the global ocean waters with new production methods in hydrogen processing plants near the oceans, and requiring new distribution and marketing systems. These hydrogen production plants can also produce large amounts of potable water supply for cities and clean water for irrigation of most agriculture products.


As hydrogen is a very light gas, it would not be useful to produce a hydrogen combustion process and then exhaust the hydrogen into the atmosphere, the same way as is done presently with all fossil fuels such as with oil, gasoline, natural gas and coal for coal fired electric power plants, the internal combustion engine, boilers, ovens, aircraft engines and heating systems which emit carbon dioxide.


All fossil fuels contain hydrogen and a certain amount of carbon, but involve primarily the combustion of oxygen with hydrogen, and the burned carbon content is discharged into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide. The use of fossil fuel and fossil fuel combustion today produces “60% of man-made carbon dioxides” into the atmosphere, which is also responsible for present global climate changes and air pollution or smog.


The hydrogen gas cannot be used up, cannot be consumed, or destroyed, and is inexhaustible in its existing state, and is the largest element or material component in the entire universe. Hydrogen can be used for many new products when made readily available, but hydrogen is most useful for energy applications through chemical reaction processes, and hydrogen regeneration processes and systems. Therefore, when a chemical reaction (combustion) of hydrogen with organic and inorganic combustion components in a continuous combustion process is produced, then the hydrogen can be reprocessed and regenerated and used again, depending upon the thoroughness of the hydrogen separation and reprocessing process. Complete separation of hydrogen from some or all combustion components means that the hydrogen can be reprocessed and regenerated continuously many times over and over.


My hydrogen energy regeneration systems and processes would be the ultimate energy resource to sustain the future global population with an abundance of inexpensive and new non-polluting energy. When hydrogen energy regeneration processes and systems are brought on line, global climate changes can be controlled and global weather patterns could return to more normal or milder climate conditions. It is now possible to choose and plan our future and destiny.

PRINCE CHARLES WARNS OF HUMAN EXTINCTION
BY SARA NOVAK, COLUMBIA, SC ON 09/10/2011

In his speech as the head of the Worldwide Wildlife Fund UK, Prince Charles warned of a mass human extinction if dramatic steps are not taken to reduce the world’s consumption of natural resources.

The Telegraph reports that Prince Charles did not mince words when describing the state of the environment and how the planet as we know it is entering a mass extinction that could only be matched but that of the dinosaurs 65 million years ago.

Prince Charles spoke eloquently on the subject:

“History will not judge us by how much economic growth we achieve in the immediate years ahead, nor by how much we expand material consumption, but by the legacy for our grandchildren and their grandchildren,” he said. “We are consuming what is rightfully theirs by sacrificing long-term progress on the altar of immediate satisfaction. That is hardly responsible behavior. There is an urgent need for all of us to concentrate our efforts on sustaining, nurturing and protecting the Earth’s natural capital and, moreover, reshaping our economic system so that Nature sits at the very heart of our thinking.”

He also recommended that the triple threat of climate change, rainforest destruction, and dwindling fish stocks make this a “crucial moment” for the organization and the movement.

Of late, the Prince has not been shy about calling out skeptics and climate change deniers while using his position as a platform to raise awareness for rainforest preservation. But this speech, given at St. James Palace in London, is still likely to turn heads.

ALARMING CLIMATE CHANGES IN ALASKA

The table below for 2011 shows Fairbanks, Alaska being as warm or warmer than Los Angeles during 28 days, and Fairbanks being as warm or warmer than San Francisco during 95 days from May 14 to September 15, 2011, according to the Oregonian Newspaper and AccuWeather.com. The direct distance from Los Angeles, California to Fairbanks, Alaska is approximately 3,000 miles north. The months of June, July and August are normally the warmest months for Fairbanks, Alaska. To date the highest Fairbanks temperature for 2011 has been 88 degrees Fahrenheit on June 25, 2011.

In 2010, Fairbanks, Alaska was warmer than Los Angeles for 27 days.
In 2010, Fairbanks, Alaska was warmer than San Francisco for 108 days.

Weather forecasting and temperature fluctuations by 10 to 20 degrees at times can be unpredictable, but ordinarily, the weather forecasting of actual temperature variability can be within 2 or 5 degrees on any given day. The most accurate verifiable temperature monitoring method is automated electronic temperature monitoring at primary locations in cities and central population areas. Therefore the given temperature variations are relatively close to being correct for these cities.

Science has verified that Carbon Dioxide and Methane Gas are major contributors to global climate changes. The entire Arctic landmass contains 1.5 Trillion tons of frozen Permafrost Carbon and Methane, which is presently melting, and is releasing large amounts of methane gas which is 23 times stronger than carbon dioxide. It is estimated that 29-59% of permafrost will disappear by the year 2200. The effects of such large amounts of additional methane into the global atmosphere have not been estimated, and the effects of methane upon global climate changes and associated economic constraints have not been considered. Year-long warmer temperatures of the Arctic Region are generated by the release of moisture and CO2 emissions from warmer pacific ocean waters and the thawing of frozen methane hydrates on the ocean floor which contain over three (3) Trillion tons of methane hydrate gas deposits worldwide.

The worldwide release of Methane has still not been factored into the global climate change research and estimates, and that in part is why the projections in climate changes are substantially underestimated. The constant heat of warmer air temperatures from the oceans containing more moisture, CO2 and methane are being forced into the Arctic region to melt ice and permafrost. Warmer ocean waters also melt more ice in the Arctic and Antarctic which in turn release more moisture into the atmosphere to cause greater global climate changes due to the shifting of ocean water volume into the Southern Hemisphere to cause greater temperature and climate changes into the Northern Hemisphere with shifting weather patterns.

The present worldwide acceleration and expected trend of expanding carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuel consumption and methane emissions is extremely dangerous for the future of this planet. Carbon Dioxide and Methane do not disintegrate within 70 years and presently large volumes continue to accelerate and accumulate in the atmosphere, and we are entering the point of no return toward a huge worldwide catastrophe. All major industrial countries and governments are only concerned to acquire more oil, coal, natural gas, nuclear power, but these diminishing energy sources combined show little promise for future energy sustainability to drive the global economy. Many countries, organizations and scientists now state that a new energy system is needed and that present fossil fuels need to be eliminated as soon as possible because of the carbon dioxide emissions causing global climate changes, cause huge economic damages and develop crop and food shortages in the process.

The only viable solution to depleting fossil fuel energy resources is Hydrogen Energy produced from the oceans (11%) and to regenerate the hydrogen in a closed loop process. Hydrogen gas is an element that cannot be consumed or used up and will react with explosive force with oxygen and various chemical formulas to produce powerful chemical reactions. Basically, oil, gasoline, natural gas and coal contain primarily hydrogen and carbon which ignite and burn with oxygen and other chemical elements. The carbon content in oil, natural gas and coal with the oxygen burns off or is combusted, but the hydrogen gas content is indestructible and cannot be consumed, and therefore the hydrogen gas can be separated and regenerated for combustion in a closed loop process numerous times.


HYDROGEN ENERGY COMPARED TO FOSSIL FUELS
BY: MANFRED ZYSK, M.E. - August 16, 2011

Hydrogen Energy Values are 3.02 times more powerful compared to Gasoline per 1 kilogram (2.204 pounds), (compressed at 700 bar); Hydrogen Energy is 3.15 times more powerful compared to Diesel Fuel; Hydrogen Energy is 3.08 times more powerful compared to Natural Gas & Propane; Hydrogen Energy is 6.0 times more powerful compared to Coal; Hydrogen Energy is 8.41 times more powerful compared to Carbohydrates; Hydrogen Energy is 8.83 times more powerful compared to Wood. These energy values are only direct comparisons to fossil fuels, and do not show enhanced combustion processes with organic and inorganic formulas. The organic, inorganic, and combination of organic and inorganic hydrogen combustion formulas can be extremely powerful for many useful applications and for large power requirements. Hydrogen Energy is the ultimate source of global energy supply for many centuries, and my hydrogen energy regeneration systems and processes are required. Barring unreasonable exploitation, Hydrogen Energy can become the most inexpensive and abundant future energy resource. Hydrogen is also the most abundant element in the entire universe.


COUNTER CURRENTS
The Roads To Our Alternative Energy Future
By Barath Raghavan – August 24, 2011
As for transitioning faster (from fossil fuel), we can look to the Hirsch report, which argued that a 20 year energy crash program is about as fast as it can be done. So 20 years it is.

Industrial Capacity
First, how much would we need to build to provide 15 TW globally using mostly alternatives in 20 years?

In total (the anticipated capabilities of new energy resources), yields about 4.2 TW of new capacity and adds to an existing 2 TW of fossil fuels, 1 TW of nuclear, and 0.5 of hydro, yielding 7.7 TW - about half of the target. That is, even assuming optimistic rates of production of alternative energy sources, we'd be about 50% short of our energy target in 20 years.

Doing the analysis above reminded me that a wholesale transition to alternatives seems unlikely to deliver energy at current levels of consumption/production.

>> Business-as-usual: we'll just keep on going with fossil fuels until we can no longer do so; that is we'll follow the oil depletion curve down and try to substitute with coal, tar sands, and other dirty fuels. We may not build new coal plants in the United States, but we probably won't decommission them as fast as we should to deal with climate issues, and China, India, and other countries will continue using coal at breakneck rates. It will however cause us to overshoot 450 ppm of CO2, taking us to perhaps 500 or 550 ppm, which is probably past the point of no return in terms of warming - natural feedbacks are likely to take over. (I think we probably are unlikely to go much further than that, since we'll start running out of cheap coal at that point.)

>> Unmanaged descent: we'll keep using fossil fuels, but the economic contraction due to oil depletion will hit hard enough that we'll end up using less energy overall. In this way, we'll haphazardly decrease our energy use at the expense of global human hardship. In this scenario, we'd probably avoid exceeding 450 ppm of CO2 simply due to a non-functioning economy, though we also won't be able to build alternatives at anything near the rate I describe above.
>> Managed descent: there are a lot of things that need to be done just right to manage our descent. First, we'd need policy-based solutions, either in the form of a carbon tax (or the equivalent) or energy quotas. Second, we'd need to stabilize swings in oil prices as I discussed before. Third, we'd need to invest in alternatives that have the highest capacity yield per unit time.

Global Warming: Ever The Politically Hot Topic
Regarding the Aug. 20 front-page article “The hot politics of global warming”:

We should all be very worried about the condition of our democracy when major American politicians disagree with essentially the entire American scientific community’s assessment that humans are contributing to global warming. This seems rather like the political powers in Italy in 1632 disagreeing with Galileo that the Earth revolved around the sun. The Catholic Church took this position because Galileo’s conclusions did not support church dogma, and it is obvious that some of our political leaders approach the global warming issue with their own dogmatic biases.

Our democracy and country cannot prosper if we continue to elect politicians who argue against scientific evidence; they will doom our country to be a second-rate or worse nation.

NOAA report shows warmer weather in U.S.
By Ashlie Rodriguez, Los Angeles Times – June 30, 2011
The new normal is warmer. That's the assessment of the nation's top weather agency, which will release data Friday showing the 30-year "normal" temperature in the United States.

"The climate of the 2000s is about 1.5 degree Fahrenheit warmer than the 1970s, so we would expect the updated 30-year normals to be warmer," said Thomas R. Karl, director of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's National Climatic Data Center.

The 30-year baseline is used by scientists to understand climate conditions and trends, including climate change. Besides providing a perspective for daily weather records, the data are widely used by utilities to project energy use, by farmers to make decisions on crop selection and planting times, and by others whose livelihoods are dependent on weather.

Jim Hurrell, a senior scientist at the National Center for Atmospheric Research, said the rise in temperature was attributable to a buildup in greenhouse gases. "The climate is indeed warming and this is evidence for it," Hurrell said.


A team of UC Berkeley physicists and statisticians that set out to challenge the scientific consensus on global warming recently reported that its data-crunching effort produced results nearly identical to those underlying the prevailing view on climate change.

Berkeley physics professor Richard Muller, a longtime critic of government-led climate studies who launched the reexamination, told a congressional hearing in April that the work of the three principal groups that have analyzed temperature trends underlying climate science was "excellent.... We see a global warming trend that is very similar to that previously reported by the other groups."

For maximum impact and reduction of existing and future global poverty of over 2+ billion people, a new energy system is needed to replace the diminishing fossil fuels and for the elimination of occurring global climate changes with sufficient Hydrogen Energy Regeneration Processes. The European Union and the United Nations are expected to play a much greater role in global affairs in the near future, particularly with the availability of abundant Hydrogen Energy derived from the oceans. As of Jan. 24, 2011 the total world energy production in British Thermal Units (BTU) is falling short compared to world energy consumption by 4.7%.

Millions of jobs can be created with abundant Hydrogen Energy obtained from the oceans which contain 11% Hydrogen and with a chemical regeneration process would form a substitute for all Fossil Fuels and Fossil Fuel Applications. My Hydrogen Regeneration Processes and Systems can produce unlimited energy supply for hundreds of years and can replace all Fossil Fuels for Europe and the global economy, without foreign interference, foreign exploitation, foreign politics, economic controls, foreign domination, foreign occupation and global energy wars. With abundant and save Hydrogen Energy supply, all energy costs can be domestically controlled by each country at very reasonable costs to industry and the public.


Energy-starved future looms, military warns


BY MIKE DE SOUZA, POSTMEDIA NEWS APRIL 18, 2011 7:53 AM


The Canadian military drew up four possible scenarios about the world's energy supplies.

The planet is running out of oil and heading toward a future that could trap Canada in a violent spiral of decline in the economy and the environment, a special research unit within the Canadian military is predicting.

This "global quagmire" is one of four possible future scenarios advanced by the six members of the team who are developing a plan for the army of tomorrow based on existing scientific research and analysis.

In a best-case scenario, they predict that Canada could be at the forefront of a prosperous green economy, in which clean energy and environmental protection are priorities and living standards improve around the world.

Two other scenarios fall in between, but all four alternatives conclude that energy security and global environmental change are the most serious and unpredictable factors that could radically alter society as well as the role of Canada's army.

"It all depends on what kind of steps are taken today that could lead to various futures," Peter Gizewski, a strategic analyst on the team, told Postmedia News.

Members of the team said that climate change in particular could have a wide range of consequences, as well as oil shortages in a world with no alternative sources of energy.

The team has also noted that the world is now consuming oil faster than it's discovering it.

"Globally, we find more (oil) all the time, but we haven't actually found as much as we've used in a given year since 1985," said Maj. John Sheahan, another member of the research team."

Sheahan noted that the price of a full tank of gasoline, even at $100, is a bargain when compared to estimates in some research that it would be equivalent to about 25,000 people each doing one hour of work.

The global quagmire scenario predicts a world ravaged by climate change and environmental degradation in which "markets are highly unstable" and there are high risks of widespread conflicts involving ownership and access to oil, water, food and other resources.

"Indeed, the danger of resource wars, both between and within states is acute," said a technical paper produced by the group in December. "Much of the violence occurs in the developing world, as dictators, organized crime groups and revolutionary movements fight for control of increasingly desperate societies. Yet developed countries are by no means immune from strife."

In the best-case scenario, the team predicts that Canada could take a leadership role in the alternative energy and environmental fields after a series of technology sharing agreements with emerging economies and active support of developing sound international regimes and practices.
Other drivers of change analyzed by the team were: the impact of age and demographics on military composition; exponential technology growth; human/social response to technology; expansion of operating environments; globalization; conflicting/shifting identities; power shifts; resource security; distribution of wealth and weapons proliferation.

But members of the team said that energy security and environmental change are factors with the highest potential impacts and the greatest uncertainty.

Welcome to the ODAC Newsletter, a weekly roundup from the Oil Depletion Analysis Centre, the UK registered charity dedicated to raising awareness of peak oil.

BP's recovery plans following last year's Deepwater Horizon disaster took a double blow this week. On Tuesday Exxon Mobil and Rosneft announced a deal to develop oil and gas reserves in the Russian Arctic — a version of the very deal that BP thought it had in the bag back in January. Then on Wednesday, to add insult to injury, BP's Moscow offices were raided by bailiffs gathering evidence for an investor who is suing BP for damages over the collapse of the January deal.

Clearly it is in the interests of energy companies to assert the importance of shale, but estimates of how much gas is really available are proving highly controversial. The US Energy Information Administration (EIA) has been forced to downgrade its resource estimate for the key Marcellus shale region in the northeast US by a whopping 80%, after a new assessment by the US Geological Survey released last week. This surely casts doubt on the US EIA's resource assessment for shale in the UK, where the Administration estimates recoverable resources of 560 billion cubic meters — about 6 years' of current UK consumption. The British Geological Survey, however, reckons we have only 150 billion cubic meters, or about 18 months' worth — surely marginal, given the evident risks. So much for the new paradigm.

Sunita Narain: Climate games and America

Last fortnight, the final nail was driven into the action on climate-change coffin
Sunita Narain / New Delhi March 28, 2011, 0:27 IST

Last fortnight, the final nail was driven into the action on climate-change coffin. In the US, a crucial vote in the house sub-committee decided that the country’s Environment Protection Agency (EPA) would no longer have the power to regulate carbon dioxide as a pollutant. The committee voted we say that the threat from climate change was not real, urgent or even serious. They said that any steps to curtail emissions would impact manufacturing and energy industry in the US. This was not negotiable. In other words, the world is back to square one — where it started in 1992, at the Rio Conference and where US president George Bush said that his country’s lifestyle was not negotiable.

But this is also not surprising. Over the past many years, each forward shift in the position of the emerging world to resolve the climate change deadlock has only meant a backward slide and hardening of position in the rich countries. Worse, in this period, there has been aggressive and often clandestine movement to shift the very nature of the global climate agreement to suit the US. But even with all this done and the framework changed to suit the US, the country has walked away. Let us understand this climate chess game:

2009: By now it was clear that the democratic government of Barack Obama was not different from its predecessor, Bush. It was only more visible and more determined to have its way in the negotiations. All at once, the bar of compromise was shifted again. The concession made by the developing world at Bali was brushed aside as too little. The shrill call went out: China and India and all the other renegade polluters in our part of the world should state their emission reduction targets. Nobody asked what was the target the US was willing to put on the table and if this would be anywhere close to its global contribution to the problem of climate change. The pressure was on us to respond. It was also said and repeated that we were the deal breakers. India and China were not doing their bit to cut emissions. They wanted growth at all costs. This line was fed and swallowed by many Indian commentators and politicians alike.

So, we caved in and complied once again. We put out our energy intensity reduction target; we put out a national action plan on climate change. China went aggressive in building a renewable energy portfolio. Brazil went on to cut its rates of deforestation. All this was done without any matching or even similar commitments from the US. The US continued to commission and build new coal-based power stations; increase its gas guzzling vehicle fleet and everything else.

2009 Copenhagen: By now, the goal posts had been shifted again. Now, the Obama administration made it clear: nothing at all. It also stitched up a coalition of the willing with the Bush-like moto: with us or against us.

2010 Cancun: The world capitulated to bring the US on board. The Cancun agreement is based on the US demand that there will be no legally-binding global agreements on the rich countries. Instead, there would be one agreement for all. This would be based on domestic actions, based not on historical emissions but on what each country was willing to do. But all these actions would be measured, reported and verified to ensure that countries were doing what they had agreed in their to domestic plans. There would be no promise of money or technology.

In other words, a weak, ineffective deal designed by, and for, polluters. The justification was that this regime change was needed to bring the US on board. But now the US has rejected even this weak agreement. How low will the world have to “sink” to bring the world’s largest historical polluters to book?

SAUDI ARABIA WILL BE UNABLE TO MEET PRODUCTION GOALS

Dr. Sadad al-Husseini met with CG and EconOff on November 20 to discuss current trends in the international energy market, as well as his thoughts on the Saudi energy sector. Al-Husseini served as Executive Vice President for Exploration and Production from 1992 until his retirement in 2004. He also served as a member of the Aramco Board of Directors from 1996 to retirement.

In a December 1 (2007) presentation at an Aramco Drilling Symposium, Abdallah al-Saif, current Aramco Senior Vice President for Exploration and Production, reported that Aramco has 716 billion barrels (bbls) of total reserves, of which 51 percent are recoverable. He then offered the promising forecast - based on historical trends - that in 20 years, Aramco will have over 900 billion barrels of total reserves, and future technology will allow for 70 percent recovery.

Al-Husseini disagrees with this analysis, as he believes that Aramco's reserves are overstated by as much as 300 billion bbls of "speculative resources." He instead focuses on original proven reserves, oil that has already been produced or which is available for exploitation based on current technology. All parties estimate this amount to be approximately 360 billion bbls. In al-Husseini's view, once 50 percent depletion of original proven reserves has been reached and the 180 billion bbls threshold crossed, a slow but steady output decline will ensue and no amount of effort will be able to stop it. By al-Husseini's calculations, approximately 116 billion barrels of oil have been produced by Saudi Arabia, meaning only 64 billion barrels remain before reaching this crucial point of inflection. At 12 million b/d production, this inflection point will arrive in 14 years.

The International Energy Agency (IEA) has estimated global depletion rates at 4 percent, while a 2006 Aramco statement has estimated Saudi Arabia's overall depletion rate at 2 percent. Al-Husseini estimates that moving forward, satisfying increases in global demand will require bringing online annually at least 6 million b/d of worldwide output, 2 million to satisfy increased demand and 4 million to compensate for declining production in existing fields.

The second issue that will limit any proposed Aramco output expansion can be broadly defined as a lack of supporting resources. For example, in al-Husseini's estimation, it is not the amount of oil available that will prevent Aramco from reaching 12.5 million b/d by 2009, but rather issues such as a lack of available skilled engineers, a shortage of experienced construction companies, insufficient refining capacity, underdeveloped industrial infrastructure, and a need for production management (if too much oil is extracted from a well without proper planning and technique, a well's potential output will be significantly damaged). As previously reported by post (Reftel), the Eastern Province economy is facing severe industrial expansion limits, and despite Aramco's willingness to invest up to 50 billion USD to achieve the 2009 goal, availability of labor, materials and housing may end up as determinative factors.


GLOBAL OIL PRICES: DEMAND HAS MET SUPPLY
Considering the rapidly growing global demand for energy - led by China, India and internal growth in oil-exporting countries - and in light of the above mentioned constraints on expanding current capacity, al-Husseini believes that the recent oil price increases are not market distortions but instead reflect the underlying reality that demand has met supply (global energy supply having remained relatively stagnant over the past years at approximately 85 million barrels/day). He estimates that the current floor price of oil, removing all geopolitical instability and financial speculation, is approximately 70 - 75 USD/barrel. Due to the longer-term constraints on expanding global output, al-Husseini judges that demand will continue to outpace supply and that for every million b/d shortfall that exists between demand and supply, the floor price of oil will increase 12 USD. Al-Husseini added that new oil discoveries are insufficient relative to the decline of the super-fields, such as Ghawar, that have long been the lynchpin of the global market.

COMMENT: While al-Husseini believes that Saudi officials overstate capabilities in the interest of spurring foreign investment, he is also critical of international expectations. He stated that the IEA's expectation that Saudi Arabia and the Middle East will lead the market in reaching global output levels of over 100 million barrels/day is unrealistic, and it is incumbent upon political leaders to begin understanding and preparing for this "inconvenient truth." Al-Husseini was clear to add that he does not view himself as part of the "peak oil camp," and does not agree with analysts such as Matthew Simmons. He considers himself optimistic about the future of energy, but pragmatic with regards to what resources are available and what level of production is possible. While he fundamentally contradicts the Aramco company line, al-Husseini is no doomsday theorist. His pedigree, experience and outlook demand that his predictions be thoughtfully considered. END COMMENT.

COMMENTS BY MANFRED ZYSK, M.E. – 2/11/2011

It is noteworthy to remember that this Embassy Cable was written on December 10, 2007, but it also needs to be realized that Dr. Sadad al-Hussaini’s comments are still protecting the interests of Saudi Aramco, and his overall future world oil supply and production research are not entirely realistic and feasible.


This also explains the U.S. Military activities today in Afghanistan and Pakistan and our anticipated oil pipeline construction, energy plans and our determined activities in that entire Mid-East region.


As most oil producing countries are experiencing major depletion of oil from their oil fields and are not able to produce many new and large oil field discoveries, then these oil producing countries naturally are forced to reduce production, and will engage in what can be called “Oil Hoarding Schemes” which among several other ways and exploitive schemes will substantially limit or reduce the availability of oil for the world economy. With the onset of higher oil prices and an uncertain domestic and world economic outlook due to an obvious energy crunch, unfortunately a major economic downturn can be expected. It can also be expected that when 60% of global oil fields are exhausted, then “Oil Hoarding” becomes common practice to protect their own national economy from economic collapse. It appears that Peak Oil was already reached in about 2007-2009, and the world economy is straining to utilize any other available energy resources, and then natural gas, coal and oil were then lumped together into fossil fuel production tabulation results, in order not to reveal the decline of oil.


The greatest and most powerful energy resource that remains available in abundance is hydrogen energy (11%) that is processed from ocean water and into new Hydrogen Energy Regeneration Systems and Processes for use for most energy applications, and to provide adequate energy supply for the future to the global population and for several centuries.


GE Leads New Decade of Reliable Oil and Gas Innovation - 2011.02.01 - Industry
Leaders from some of the world’s largest oil and gas exploration and production companies, including BP, Chevron, Petronas, Saudi Aramco and Woodside, are among the 1,000 industry representatives gathered in Florence, Italy to attend the 12th GE Oil & Gas Annual Meeting.

To offset the depletion of oil and gas reserves and meet demand to 2020, additional resources equivalent to approximately five (5) times the oil capacity currently produced by Saudi Arabia and four (4) times the gas capacity currently produced by Russia will be required.

THE END OF OIL AS WE KNOW IT
PR NEWSWIRE, WASHINGTON – OCT. 7, 2010


The Association for the Study of Peak Oil and Gas (ASPO-USA) asserted today that the world is facing a significant energy crisis, as the rate of oil production cannot keep pace with demand. The world is consuming four (4) barrels of oil for every (1) discovered, more than 80 million barrels of oil per day. After 150 years of oil extraction, most major oil exporting nations are well past their supply peaks, defined by scientists as “Peak Oil.


“We are at the point of no return,” stated Jim Baldauf, President of ASPO-USA. “While global demand is accelerating, worldwide oil supply have reached a plateau and are now in decline. The era of lo-cost, easy-to-get oil has come to an end, a moment of historic significance and one fraught with danger. The Gulf of Mexico disaster occurred because the quest for new supplies requires that we drill miles beneath the ocean surface. Without affordable energy to drive our economy, we can expect price spikes and economic crisis to be the new normal. The debate about Peak Oil is over; it is time for bold action. If we do not change our current approach, we will see tremendous global repercussions.”


Today representatives from across the political spectrum came together to discuss the severity of this issue and potential solutions.

RUSSIA PLANS TO JOIN EUROPEAN UNION BY 2025
Several published articles describe plans of Russia joining the European Union in the near future. France, Germany and Russia met in France on October 17 and 18, 2010 to discuss the completion of unification and integration of Russia’s population and economy with the European Union by the year 2025. The present population of the European Union is 501 million, and the population of Russia is 146 million, for a combined total population of 647 million. Additional countries are expected to join the European Union like Turkey with a population of 74 million people, the Ukraine with 46 million people and 12 regional satellite countries with 68 million people for a combined total of 835 million people.


UNITED NATIONS FRAMEWORK CONVENTION ON CLIMATE CHANGE
THE NEED FOR STRONG GLOBAL ACTION ON CLIMATE CHANGE – NOV. 2010

“According to the International Energy Agency, global energy demand will grow 55% by 2030. The period up to 2030, the energy supply infrastructure worldwide will require a total investment of USD 26 TRILLION, with about half of that in developing countries. If the world does not manage to green these investments by directing them into climate-friendly technologies, emissions will go up by 50% by 2050, instead of down by 5%, as science requires.”


GREENLAND ICE CAP IS MELTING – 2010 RECORD
THE OREGONIAN - January 29, 2010

Greenland’s vast ice cap melted at a record rate last year in a trend scientists say could bring a major rise in global sea level over the decades ahead. “This past melt season was exceptional, with melting in some areas stretching up to 50 days longer than average,” said Marco Tedesco, director of the Cryospheric Processes Laboratory at CCNY. Scientists say the sea level would rise by 23 feet if it were to melt entirely. June 4, 2011 . . . “Warmer oceans have increased water vapor by 4% and is expected to increase.”

ALLIANZ INSURANCE WARNS CLIMATE CHANGE COULD HIT
HARDER THAN FINANCIAL CRISIS – November 22, 2010

As the UN Climate Summit in Cancun approaches, the insurance industry is preparing to present its case to the politicians, business leaders and scientists, who will be attending. “In our global industry insurance business alone, 40% of damages are due to storms and floods. Also, for our asset management entities, we have to watch rising temperatures. Government climate policies affect the value of companies and hence influence our investment decisions.”


Allianz noted that this appeal “is repeated annually, based on the lack of progress of both the world’s major industrial powers and the emerging countries in the race against global warming.” “What is needed are binding worldwide targets for carbon emissions. To reduce CO2 emissions governments have to provide clear and predictable climate policies for the private sector to become active. Otherwise we’ll inevitably see devastating impacts on the environment and society that will cause enormous costs for the global economy in the long run. Politicians need to take action, before it’s too late.


“Exactly 259 investors signed the statement, who together represent combined assets under management worth over 15 Trillion US dollars. This figure is equivalent to the annual GDP of the United States, or to more than 25% of the world’s total market capitalization.” - End.

It's Time for the Senate to Get to Work
U.S. SENATOR JEFFERY MERKLEY – December 17, 2010

Sadly, the Senate isn't able to do much to meet this or other challenges because it's become a dysfunctional institution where deliberation is rare and obstruction is rampant. At the heart of Senate dysfunction is the filibuster, a tool that is being regularly abused to block legislation and effectively bring the Senate to a standstill. In order to overcome obstruction and get our economy moving again, Senator Merkley is working with his colleagues to fix the filibuster and get the Senate back to work.


As it stands now, a single Senator can delay a bill from even being considered by simply making a phone call to a clerk and then going home. Senator Merkley is working to make the filibuster a public act of courage. Senators should make their case before the American people and explain why the majority is making such a colossal mistake that we should suspend normal democratic decision-making.


Our nation is facing serious challenges – from backbreaking unemployment to a persistent housing crisis. Working families can't afford Senate inaction any longer. It's time to end Senate paralysis and get to work. – END.


Energy, and especially inexpensive energy is the most valuable natural resource, and energy drives the world economy. The global reliance upon Fossil Fuels is producing Carbon Dioxide Emissions which are causing Global Climate Changes. The volume of future energy demands by the global population clearly shows the short supply of Fossil Fuels today, including the exhaustion of Fossil Fuel in the near future.

Any alternatives to Fossil Fuel such as Renewable Fuels of Bio-fuels, Solar, Wind and nuclear power (the United States imports 83% of uranium from 8 countries) for electricity generation for the use in cars, industrial requirements and domestic use, et cetera, are clearly insufficient to meet present and future economic demands, with the exception of Hydrogen obtained from the oceans which contain 11% Hydrogen, and of regenerating Hydrogen through a continuous chemical regeneration process within a closed loop system.

When adding up the energy values of renewable fuels and the usage in electric cars and national future requirements, and then comparing the energy consumption results to oil and gasoline energy values to satisfy population growth, then renewable fuels and electric cars are totally inadequate and too expensive for industrialized countries. Natural Gas Liquids have only 65% of BTU’s compared to oil. Recently, the U.S. Dept. of Energy entered into a co-op agreement with China for a joint $100 million for advanced energy research, because the U.S. auto industry, corporations and universities have failed to produce the needed technology for future energy requirements within the last 30 years, and the fuel cell research by the U.S. government was a total waste of money from the technological standpoint.

Now the U.S. wants other countries to provide the technological research and energy solutions at little or no cost to the United States. Obviously, any countries involved in energy research would obtain patent rights, and any new energy technology development will not be free for the United States. At the same time over one (1) Trillion Dollars are wasted to gain control of the Mid-East oil reserves, which then can be used to control the global economy.

My Hydrogen Energy Regeneration Processes and Systems have been proposed to the UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT numerous times for over 40 years, but the U.S. Government is more interested in spending over 1 Trillion Dollars per year for the Defense Department and the Military Industrial Complex for waging wars in the Mid-East over oil, which is bankrupting the United States to the tune of debts now amounting to over 14.08 Trillion Dollars.

Even at this time of economic desperation, the Unite States Senators and Congressmen are adamantly opposed to any meaningful solutions, and even condemn the educational system and practical science. The plan to shutter domestic industries and then to financially take over the world economy, while attempting of controlling the world oil supply, has resulted into a complete failure.

The United States Government is in such array and confusion, that I find it impossible to rescue the United States from their delusions of World Economic Control and their visions of 21st Century American World Domination. The economic progress and prosperity derived from the automobile, steel industry and telecommunication industries somehow are simply being scrapped from existence, in favor of global domination plans with shrill religious conversion and crusade overtones. The United States Senator Bernard Sanders disclosed on a radio program that the United States has lost 42,000 Manufacturing Companies in the last ten (10) years.


AMERICA’S FUTURE – (CONDENSED)
BY: DAVID BROOKS, NEW YORK TIMES/THE OREGONIAN – NOV. 13, 2010

Elections come and go, but the United States is still careening toward bankruptcy. By 2020, the U.S. will be spending $1 trillion a year just to pay the interest on the national debt. Sometime between now and then the catastrophe will come. It will come with amazing swiftness. . . . the shock will be grievous, national humiliation, diminished power in the world, drastic cuts and spreading pain.


So we continue on the headlong path toward a national disaster. And along the way our dysfunctional political system will leave all sorts of other problems unaddressed: immigration, energy policy and on and on. Yet, I’m optimistic right now. I’m optimistic because while our political system is a mess, the economic and social values of the country remain sound.


Over the past few years, we have seen millions of people mobilize – some behind President Barack Obama and others around the tea parties. The country is restive and looking for alternatives. The coming movement . . . will preserve America’s standing in the world on the grounds that this supremacy is a gift to our children and a blessing for the earth. – END


The future of England, Germany, France and the rest of Europe can become an incredible experience with the full development of Hydrogen Energy Regeneration Processes and Systems, and will provide much greater economic development than all of the present Fossil Fuel Resources combined that is being produced and supplied by high profit oriented foreign corporations and foreign countries, which produces very limited economic progress because of exploitive fossil fuel energy pricing and profiteering. Please see website: www.MZ-Energy.com

The low cost of energy always produces major domestic economic development, benefits and many new jobs for all industries, businesses and citizens. If an abundance of energy can be produced and supplied at 30% to 60% less costs than all Fossil Fuels for several centuries, then all other industries including the entire population will thrive and prosper. Depending upon the domestic valuations and social development system and plans, it may be possible to produce Hydrogen Energy by more than 60% in less costs compared to present Fossil Fuel energy costs. Some indications point to much better performance resulting in much lower operating costs for Hydrogen Energy Regeneration Processes and Systems, but before making any claims, thorough practical application tests of actual products are required for cars, trucks, electric power plants, chemical plants, agriculture and numerous other energy applications.

If most of the European Countries are able to produce all energy from hydrogen obtained from the oceans by and for themselves, and without foreign oil suppliers, then that will generate great economic progress, and then my Hydrogen Energy Regeneration Processes and Systems can also be developed in Asia, Africa and South America.

But the United States Government simply does not care and is rather inclined to re-establish a slave system. Individual Senators and Congressmen appear to be afraid to contact me, and only acknowledge of having received my basic technical disclosure documents, and then request political donations and campaign contributions about every other day.

I do know of a rather large oil and/or a combination natural gas deposit in Russia which has to date not been explored. This oil/gas deposit in Russia is and will be worthwhile in the future, including many mineral deposits. To date the total exploration of Russia’s landmass is still approximately below 10%, and Europe and Russia mutually may find any large deposits of oil and minerals of substantial economic value. The mutual and joint economic development of Europe and Russia can be extremely beneficial and very productive for all countries involved.

I do know of the types of new technology and products which are suitable for broad public affordability and economic initiatives which would be welcome and find broad acceptance by the European and Russian population. A lucrative mutual economic development plan should be made that will generate great satisfaction to all participating parties.

The United States Government has now been officially notified of this plan as of Dec. 28, 2010, but similar economic development plans have been deliberately ignored. The U.S. military is overextended worldwide and the Military Industrial Complex cannot perpetually generate more wars and impose massive weapon sales worldwide. With the bankrupt U.S. economy and financial dilemma, the Military Industrial Complex and government should appreciate the vast cost reductions from the present over 1 Trillion Dollar annual military and defense budgets. These huge savings can re-invigorate the U.S. Economy, since there are really no more real enemies to declare further wars on. Please see my website: www.MZ-Energy.com

However, if England, Germany, France, and other European countries, and the United Nations combined are proceeding with the Global Climate Change Initiatives including my Hydrogen Energy Regeneration Processes and Systems, then the United States should approve and/or will be offered continuously the utilization of my Hydrogen Energy Regeneration Processes and Systems, in spite of their constant vilifications and condemnations against beneficial technology, products, education and basic science.

Sufficient funding is required for the multitude of Hydrogen Energy Regeneration Applications and Products and to conduct complete verifiable research by scientists and physicists, development, testing, manufacturing, production and plant installation at 2-3 ocean testing locations by participating countries, preferably on a high priority schedule, including all necessary patent work. With today’s technology, Hydrogen Energy Regeneration can be developed and used safely and very economically. Of utmost importance is to make Hydrogen Energy Regeneration Processes and Systems very inexpensive for all applications and for all industries before launching this permanent and great new energy resource.

Dear Mr. President Obama and Vice President Biden:

The great abundance of energy propelled the United States into a huge economic power and into a very prominent and rich country and produced huge opportunities for many people who became millionaires and billionaires. Very large companies and corporations were created by the American people, who invested into these companies and corporations, and the employees were given incentives such as employee profit sharing plans and retirement funds in addition to government sponsored social security. The American people created these millionaires, billionaires, companies and huge corporations through their hard work in this relatively empty country.


The availability of oil and gasoline produced tremendous economic progress with the national highway system, affordable cars and the transportation system up until now, when we need to import over 67% of oil from foreign countries according to IEA in April 2010. The United States economy is very dependent upon oil for transportation, and for our food supply, but when the imported and diminishing oil is becoming very expensive, or too expensive to sustain our existing lifestyle in our country, then an alternate method of energy of equal or better value has to be found to meet future demands.


Oil availability has served us and the worldwide industrialization well, but now as we are running out of inexpensive oil, we need to produce a more permanent energy source, which should replace all oil and fossil fuel energy applications. The existing remaining oil should be preserved primarily for necessary future lubrication requirements and special industrial requirements.


There is simply no other choice but to develop my Hydrogen Energy Regeneration Processes and Systems to supply the vast amount of future energy demands for the United States and for the rest of the globe.


My evaluation in 1962 indicated that if some industries closed or left the United States, then the United States would lose not only global power, but also enter into a economic depression with far reaching consequences. As if to mock my research, the U.S. government proceeded with political power schemes at the United Nations, and with economic suppression tactics and international stock market activities on various continents. The plan to dispose of our industries and then exercise global financial control was adopted by establishing stock markets worldwide, which could be plundered, whenever convenient.

All the U.S. companies and corporations loved these great foreign opportunities, until it became clear that our government could not possibly support all these “permanent” war schemes including the bailout of our multi-national banks and corporations simultaneously and without taxation. So the plan was to develop and to acquire control over all Arab Oil Deposits through the State Department, Intelligence Activities, with the assistance of “Shock & Awe” tactics by our military and wars. Anyone who opposed our invasion and occupation of the Mid-East Countries could be subjected to imprisonment and torture including children and civilians, with full approval by the president and top government officials.


According to my estimations in 1963, the Arab countries would never give up their ownership of their oil reserves no matter how much destruction we unleash. Instead, the Arabs would fight against the occupation of their lands and rather destroy these oil fields, before we can take their precious oil away. Even our long term occupation has not changed their rightful determination to their ownership of natural resources and sovereignty of their land. My research has been proven to be correct.


During the Cuban Missile Crisis, I considered the design of a small jet plane, similar in size of a car for defense and public transportation. Please see 3 typical illustrations in Chapter 4-A of Small Jet Plane for Commercial and Defense Use in www.MZ-Energy.com. Naturally the Military Industrial Complex and our government would oppose such plans because it would interfere with their plans for total global economic control. These U.S. activities and plans were not only totally false, but rather irrational.


My small jet plane would reduce global defense spending and improve our relationship with Europe and most Asian countries, and create a more vibrant global economy. This small jet plane would consume additional fuel, and I started to research global oil deposits, but found that a new energy source was needed in the near future, in spite of the fact that the oil companies claimed that there are enough oil reserves in existence. I found that the oil companies could not be relied upon, and my research proved that we would be running out of oil soon, unless we imported oil. Therefore, I started my research with Hydrogen Energy Regeneration Processes and for all possible applications.


In 1963, the U.S. economy was starting to become concerned about energy costs, and I conducted research for an alternative to fossil fuel, so that our industries could continue our vast technological progress and create much greater opportunities for our entire population and nation.

All the major world problems could have been avoided since about 1966, if our government really had the realization to listen to my proposal and requests for funding my Hydrogen Energy Regeneration R&D Projects. Only Hydrogen obtained from the oceans at 11%, and through a regeneration process, Hydrogen Energy would become a far more important energy resource than all the fossil fuels combined to supply all global energy needs for several centuries.


Naturally I was concerned about my personal and family safety and livelihood, because our government and the entire industries were totally intertwined with fossil fuel utilization, and my new source of energy would jeopardize this cozy fossil fuel relationship. But I realized that fossil fuel was soon coming to an end, and I had to proceed with my research past 1963, and I also realized that the oil in the Middle East could cause a devastating war by the U.S. and to the Arab countries. But our government was determined to go to war with the Arab countries and to control the world oil supply.


Today we see relatively small amounts of money being scattered into many little energy projects, of which many are owned by foreign companies and foreign countries, but overall, only small and insufficient amounts of energy will be produced for the growing United States and global population.


This is what major officials from 21 countries making up 80% of Global Gross Domestic Product and the European Union and a number of International Organizations were “Warning the World’s Current Energy Path Was Unsustainable” at U.S. talks on July 19, 2010.


My previous communication with the White House warned of abstaining from funding meaningless little energy projects, which only distort and confuse the public because the energy crisis was becoming extremely critical, and we, and other countries could be induced to go to war over foreign oil supply.


Many scientists and the Union of Concerned Scientists demanded that the government establish an Energy Science Organization similar to the “Manhattan Project.” But our government strongly objects to such innovative proposals, because the high profits of plundering by existing corporations are of greater importance, and a “Manhattan Energy Project” may be labeled as becoming socialistic by the powerful exploiters in the United States.


In order to reduce and contain the impending economic pains and hardships, I explicitly requested that all government funding be directed to coping with the energy crisis and global climate changes based upon scientific findings and approval by the U.S. and/or including the UN-IPCC and Foreign Scientific Communities.


We are now experiencing the result of this deliberate stupidity for many years, and our government still refuses to work on any meaningful climate change/energy appropriations and funding for this year. About half of our U.S. government now declares climate change to be a fraud and science is a devilish path, of which only the corporations are allowed to exploit. Unfortunately, our government seems to care little about the survival of our domestic companies, small businesses and our population. Please see website: www.MZ-Energy.com

What are Hydrogen Energy Regeneration Processes and Systems?

Hydrogen Regeneration eventually eliminates all fossil fuel.
Hydrogen Regeneration produces no air pollution

Hydrogen Energy is the best global energy resource for future generations and is applicable for most energy requirements and suitable for most future industries. Hydrogen Energy can produce all future global energy needs if all countries work together with organizations like the United Nations and Regional Economic Blocks such as the European Union, and many wars over energy resources can be averted.


At this time our government, companies, corporations, business establishments and the public have to realize that our economy is presently in bad shape when we need to import 67% of oil from foreign countries, but when our oil imports reach 80%, then we obviously can expect a deep depression and great losses of employment, the closing of many businesses and companies. In April, 2010 the International Energy Agency (IEA) reported that the U.S. was importing 13.47 million barrels of oil per day, or 67%.

It should also be understood that most countries would have the same energy crisis, and our world economy and foreign trade would change dramatically.


Many trivial and childish activities such as racism, religious confrontations, the Tea Baggers, hate groups, war advocates and more militarism only cause further frustrations, but nothing meaningful is being achieved to rectify existing problems of energy, global climate change, unemployment, the economy, housing, medical care, education, social security and election reform. My Hydrogen Energy Regeneration Processes and Systems (hydrogen 11% from ocean water) would be most instrumental to address all these problems simultaneously, provided we finally stop bickering and go to work. Above all, we need to remember that hydrogen energy regeneration is more valuable than all the fossil fuel combined and can produce many millions of new jobs. Our government needs to fund my hydrogen energy processes and systems for a broad nationwide system. I do authorize publication of all information.

Much of the Globe Threatened with Drought
A large percentage of heavily populated countries could suffer severe and prolonged drought in coming decades, according to a new study which analysed 22 computer climate models and a mass of information concerning current drought conditions worldwide.

The study, conducted by National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) scientist Aiguo Dai and reported as part of a longer review article in Wiley Interdisciplinary Reviews: Climate Change, finds that a continuing rise in global temperatures are likely to see a parallel increase in drought conditions across a large majority of the planet in the next three decades.

INCREASING INTENSITY OF EL NIÑO
IN THE CENTRAL EQUATORIAL PACIFIC

Tong Lee - Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California
Institute of Technology, Pasadena, California
Michael J. McPhaden - Pacific Marine Environmental
Laboratory, NOAA, Seattle, Washington, USA – August 28, 2010
Satellite observations suggest that the intensity of El Niño events in the central equatorial Pacific (CP) has almost doubled in the past three decades, with the strongest warming occurring in 2009–10. This is related to the increasing intensity as well as occurrence frequency of the so-called CP El Niño events since the 1990s. While sea surface temperature (SST) in the CP region during El Niño years has been increasing, those during neutral and La Niña years have not. Therefore, the well-documented warming trend of the warm pool in the CP region is primarily a result of more intense El Niño events rather than a general rise of background SST. COMMENT: This further verifies that the Pacific Ocean water is warming and that the frozen methane hydrates on the ocean floor are melting, and that the frozen permafrost and tundra are thawing at accelerated rates and release more methane into the atmosphere to cause worse global climate changes.

IPCC CONCLUDES CLIMATE TO BECOME MORE INTENSE AND FREQUENT
By: Rupee News - August 24, 2010
In its 2007 report, the Inter-governmental Panel on Climate Change, a scientific body created by the UN, concluded that “it is very likely that hot extremes, heat waves and heavy precipitation events will continue to become more frequent.”
On August 24, 2010, IPCC chief R.K. Pachauri told Inter Press Service that “the floods of the kind that hit Pakistan may become more frequent and more intense in the future in this and other parts of the world”. Earlier this month, WMO made a similarly qualified assessment.

PLANT GROWTH DECLINES AS
WARMING CAUSES DROUGHT
By RANDOLPH E. SCHMID (AP) – August 19, 2010
WASHINGTON — A new study finds that drought related to global warming is causing a decline in the world's plant productivity. Previously, warmer temperatures had led to more plant growth.


The reversal is reported in Friday's issue of the journal Science by University of Montana researchers, who worry that the result could affect growth of plants for food and fuels.


Plus, they say, if there are fewer plants, they will take up less carbon dioxide from the air, and more CO2 in the air could worsen global warming.


COMMENT BY MANFRED ZYSK, M.E. - August 26, 2010

Since Global Climate Change has been largely found technically accurate worldwide, it is now necessary to concentrate on acquiring more global data from satellites, because plant growth and food production is already reduced by approx. 6% because of global climate changes, damages and climate disasters.


In order to physically view of what is happening to our weather, we need to look at the shifting global weather patterns, as I previously disclosed. It is extremely important for satellites to continuously monitor the weather of the Arctic, the Equator and the Antarctic including the Jet Stream flow patterns from the past, present and future with dates as accurate as possible, and to come up with an overall analysis of the shifting changes in the global climate. This means that the entire global weather patterns are continuously traced every day, and any or all weather changes are recorded for comparison with previous years. Large amounts of additional carbon dioxide causes drought patterns which dry up large tracts of forests and agricultural land, which then produce more carbon dioxide, but no oxygen. Therefore, the increasing volume of carbon dioxide produces ever warmer temperatures, droughts and weather changes.


Official: Russian disaster sign of global warming
By DAVID NOWAK (AP) – 3 days ago
MOSCOW — Russia's heat wave, drought and wildfires — which have killed dozens of people and destroyed millions of acres (hectares) of wheat — are another indication that global warming is causing more weather extremes around the world, a Russian official said Monday.


Alexander Bedritsky, the Kremlin's weather adviser, also cited other disasters that he believes may be related to rising world temperatures, including Pakistan's worst floods in recorded history, and France's 2003 heat wave, which killed 15,000 people.
Taken together, they "are signs of global warming," Bedritsky, who also serves as president the World Meteorological Organization, said at a news conference.

U.S. climate change envoy Jonathan Pershing also recently said that such weather disasters are the kind of changes that could be the result of climate change. Russian firefighters, meanwhile, have succeeded in pushing back some of the country's wildfires, and meteorologists said a cold front was advancing from the northwest that would hit the Moscow region Monday, bringing heavy rains and colder temperatures.


Five-hundred blazes were still burning in Russia, but the amount of land on fire fell 15 percent in the last 24 hours, the Emergency Situations Ministry said Monday. The area covered by fires around Moscow also has nearly halved in size over the past two days, it said.


Russia's heat wave — unprecedented in 130 years of record keeping — has sparked thousands of fires, most of them in western Russia. Heat and acrid smog from the fires also blanketed Moscow for a week this month, doubling the number of recorded deaths in the city.


More than 50 people have died in the wildfires across Russia, and more than 2,000 homes have been destroyed.


The blazes and drought also have cost Russia one-third of its wheat crop, prompting the government to ban wheat exports through the end of the year in a move that has sent world grain prices to new highs. The government promised subsidies to farmers and warned traders that it would closely monitor prices to protect domestic consumers.


Russia's economy largely depends on exports of oil and gas, and government officials have traditionally been cautious on climate change issues.


Moscow is a signatory to the 1997 Kyoto Protocol, a pact among industrialized nations to cut carbon emissions by 5 percent by 2012, but a post-Soviet industrial decline had freed it of the need to actually cut greenhouse gases. Russia says that any further deal on emission cuts should credit it for meeting Kyoto obligations ahead of schedule.


Russia's heat wave has raised concerns that wildfires could spread to areas contaminated by the 1986 Chernobyl nuclear disaster and spread radioactive particles over broader territory. But authorities have insisted that all wildfires in the Bryansk region and other Chernobyl-affected areas have been quickly dealt with.


Officials said they are well equipped to combat blazes, but Lyudmila Kolmogortseva, an environmentalist and a regional legislator in the Bryansk region, said that emergency workers in the area lack firefighting aircraft and could do little if the fires spread.


"Almost a million cubic meters (yards) of dead radioactive wood pose serious danger if the fires spread," she told The Associated Press. "The forest is practically impenetrable, and we practically have no aviation, so we'll have nothing to fight the fires if they spread."


Kolmogortseva said that sporadic blazes in the area covered a total of about 30 hectares (74 acres) this summer but that they all have been extinguished before they could spread radiation.


The regional branch of the Emergency Situations Ministry said Monday there are no fires burning now in the area and that radiation levels have remained normal.

LONG, HOT SUMMER OF FIRE,
FLOODS -- FITS PREDICTIONS
By CHARLES J. HANLEY (AP) – 2 hours ago, August 12, 2010

NEW YORK — Floods, fires, melting ice and feverish heat: From smoke-choked Moscow to water-soaked Pakistan and the High Arctic, the planet seems to be having a midsummer breakdown. It's not just a portent of things to come, scientists say, but a sign of troubling climate change already under way.


The weather-related cataclysms of July and August fit patterns predicted by climate scientists, the Geneva-based World Meteorological Organization says — although those scientists always shy from tying individual disasters directly to global warming.


The experts now see an urgent need for better ways to forecast extreme events like Russia's heat wave and wildfires and the record deluge devastating Pakistan. They'll discuss such tools in meetings this month and next in Europe and America, under United Nations, U.S. and British government sponsorship.


"There is no time to waste," because societies must be equipped to deal with global warming, says British government climatologist Peter Stott.


He said modelers of climate systems are "very keen" to develop supercomputer modeling that would enable more detailed linking of cause and effect as a warming world shifts jet streams and other atmospheric currents. Those changes can wreak weather havoc.


The U.N.'s network of climate scientists — the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) — has long predicted that rising global temperatures would produce more frequent and intense heat waves, and more intense rainfalls. In its latest assessment, in 2007, the Nobel Prize-winning panel went beyond that. It said these trends "have already been observed," in an increase in heat waves since 1950, for example.


Still, climatologists generally refrain from blaming warming for this drought or that flood, since so many other factors also affect the day's weather.


Stott and NASA's Gavin Schmidt at the Goddard Institute of Space Studies in New York, said it's better to think in terms of odds: Warming might double the chances for a heat wave, for example. "That is exactly what's happening," Schmidt said, "a lot more warm extremes and less cold extremes."


The WMO did point out, however, that this summer's events fit the international scientists' projections of "more frequent and more intense extreme weather events due to global warming." In fact, in key cases they're a perfect fit:


RUSSIA
It's been the hottest summer ever recorded in Russia with Moscow temperatures topping 100 degrees Fahrenheit (37.8 degrees C) for the first time. The drought there has sparked hundreds of wildfires in forests and dried peat bogs, blanketing western Russia with a toxic smog. Moscow's death rate has doubled to 700 people a day. The drought reduced the wheat harvest by more than one-third.


The 2007 IPCC report predicted a doubling of disastrous droughts in Russia this century and cited studies foreseeing catastrophic fires during dry years. It also said Russia would suffer large crop losses.


PAKISTAN
The heaviest monsoon rains on record — 12 inches (300 millimeters) in one 36-hour period — have sent rivers rampaging over huge swaths of countryside. It's left 14 million Pakistanis homeless or otherwise affected, and killed 1,500. The government calls it the worst natural disaster in the nation's history.


A warmer atmosphere can hold — and discharge — more water. The 2007 IPCC report said rains have grown heavier for 40 years over north Pakistan and predicted greater flooding this century in south Asia's monsoon region.


CHINA
China is witnessing its worst floods in decades, the WMO says, particularly in the northwest province of Gansu. There, floods and landslides last weekend killed at least 1,117 people and left more than 600 missing, feared swept away or buried beneath mud and debris.


The IPCC reported in 2007 that rains had increased in northwest China by up to 33 percent since 1961, and floods nationwide had increased sevenfold since the 1950s. It predicted still more frequent flooding this century.


ARCTIC
Researchers last week spotted a 100-square-mile (260-square-kilometer) chunk of ice calved off from the great Petermann Glacier in Greenland's far northwest. It was the most massive ice island to break away in the Arctic in a half-century of observation.
The huge iceberg appeared just five months after an international scientific team published a report saying ice loss from the Greenland ice sheet is expanding up its northwest coast from the south.


Changes in the ice sheet "are happening fast, and we are definitely losing more ice mass than we had anticipated," said one of the scientists, NASA's Isabella Velicogna.
In the Arctic Ocean itself, the summer melt of the vast ice cap has reached unprecedented proportions. Satellite data show the ocean area covered by ice last month was the second-lowest ever recorded for July.


The melting of land ice into the oceans is causing about 60 percent of the accelerating rise in sea levels worldwide, with thermal expansion from warming waters causing the rest. The WMO'S World Climate Research Program says seas are rising by 1.34 inches (3.4 millimeters) per decade, about twice the 20th century's average.


Worldwide temperature readings, meanwhile, show that this January-June was the hottest first half of a year in 150 years of global climate record keeping. Meteorologists say 17 nations have recorded all-time-high temperatures in 2010, more than in any other year.


Scientists blame the warming on carbon dioxide and other heat-trapping gases pouring into the atmosphere from power plants, cars and trucks, furnaces and other fossil fuel-burning industrial and residential sources.


Experts are growing ever more vocal in urging sharp cutbacks in emissions, to protect the climate that has nurtured modern civilization.


"Reducing emissions is something everyone is capable of," Nanjing-based climatologist Tao Li told an academic journal in China, now the world's No. 1 emitter, ahead of the U.S. But not everyone is willing to act.


The U.S. remains the only major industrialized nation not to have legislated caps on carbon emissions, after Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid last week withdrew climate legislation in the face of resistance from Republicans and some Democrats.


The U.S. inaction, dating back to the 1990s, is a key reason global talks have bogged down for a pact to succeed the expiring Kyoto Protocol. That is the relatively weak accord on emissions cuts adhered to by all other industrialized states.


Governments around the world, especially in poorer nations that will be hard-hit, are scrambling to find ways and money to adapt to shifts in climate and rising seas.


The meetings of climatologists in the coming weeks in Paris, Britain and Colorado will be one step toward adaptation, seeking ways to identify trends in extreme events and better means of forecasting them.


A U.N. specialist in natural disasters says much more needs to be done. Salvano Briceno of the U.N.'s International Strategy for Disaster Reduction pointed to aggravating factors in the latest climate catastrophes: China's failure to stem deforestation, contributing to its deadly mudslides; Russia's poor forest management, feeding fires; and the settling of poor Pakistanis on flood plains and dry riverbeds in the densely populated country, squatters' turf that suddenly turned into torrents.


"The IPCC has already identified the influence of climate change in these disasters. That's clear," Briceno said. "But the main trend we need to look at is increasing vulnerability, the fact we have more people living in the wrong places, doing the wrong things."

KILLER HEAT WAVES AND RETREATING
ICE SHEETS RAISE CLIMATE ALARM

Scientists warn Congress that melting Greenland icesheet
could lead to sea level rises of seven metres (23 feet)

By: Rachel Fielding, BusinessGreen, 11 Aug 2010

The growing climate change risk for business is once again under the spotlight, after environmental experts this week warned of new evidence that global warming is contributing directly to extreme weather events and rising sea levels.

The House of Representatives committee on energy independence and global warming was today warned by a panel of scientists that the entire ice mass of Greenland will disappear from the world map if temperatures rise by as little as 2C, with severe consequences in terms of sea level increases.

The giant Greenland ice sheet made headlines last week when the Petermann Glacier, one of Greenland's largest, shed its largest chunk of ice in nearly half a century, sending a 100 sq mile chunk of ice drifting into the North Strait between Greenland and Canada.

Richard Alley, a geosciences professor at Pennsylvania State University, warned that Greenland faces an even grimmer future, with yet more icebergs predicted to fall into the sea because of rising temperatures.

The fall-out would be felt thousands of miles away from the Arctic, unleashing a global sea level rise of up to 23ft (7 metres), warned Alley.

"What is going on in the Arctic now is the biggest and fastest thing that nature has ever done," he told the briefing in Congress.

Robert Bindschadler, a research scientist at the University of Maryland, added: "While we don't believe it is possible to lose an ice sheet within a decade, we do believe it is possible to reach a tipping point in a few decades in which we would lose the ice sheet in a century."

The loss of the ice sheet would result in hundreds of coastal cities around the world being inundated and would pose an unprecedented threat to the global economy.

Meanwhile, researchers also warned this week that global climate change is at least partly responsible for the abnormally hot and dry weather in Moscow.

Experts from the environmental group WWF Russia have linked climate change with the record high temperatures that have afflicted Moscow over past few weeks, leading to raging wildfires around the Russian capital that have driven airborne pollutants levels to the worst ever recorded in the region.

Jeff Knight, a climate variability scientist at the UK Met Office, attributed the situation in Moscow to a number of factors, among them steadily rising greenhouse gas concentrations.

The Moscow health department said that the number of people dying daily in the city had reached about 700 - twice the usual number.

Experts are now warning that deadly heat waves are likely to become more frequent as a result of climate change.

"In a few decades, fires may affect the main forest regions of Russia," head of the climate and energy programme at WWF Russia Dr Alexei Kokorin said. "Of course, there are a lot less people living there, but we could lose a lot more forests. We can now say that the wave of abnormal phenomena that the rest of the world has been experiencing has finally reached central Russia."

The warnings come just days after environment secretary Caroline Spelman called on UK companies to urgently improve their resilience to climate change, warning that too many were not prepared for the changes to weather patterns that climate change will inevitably bring.

The results of a survey released by Defra last week found that while three quarters of businesses were concerned about the potential impact of climate change, less than a quarter had actually started to do something about the risks and opportunities that it presents.

BATTLING GLOBAL WARMING
TIME TO TAKE A STAND
BEFORE OUR PLANET FRIED

By: Bill McKibben, The Sunday Oregonian - Aug. 8, 2010
Nine nations so far have set their all-time temperature records this year, including Russia (111 degrees), Niger (118 degrees), Sudan (121 degrees), Saudi Arabia and Iraq (126 degrees), and Pakistan, which also set the new all-time Asia record in May – a hair under 130 degrees.


A “staggering” new study from Canadian researchers has shown that warmer seawater has reduced phytoplankton, the base of the marine food chain, by 40% since 1950.


We’re not going to get the Senate to act next week, or maybe even next year. We may need to get arrested. We definitely will need disciplined, nonviolent but very real anger. Mostly, we need to tell the truth, resolutely and constantly. Fossil fuel is wrecking the one Earth we’ve got. It’s not going to go away because we ask politely. If we want a world that works, we’re going to have to raise our voices. Bill McKibben “Earch: Making a Life on a Tough New Planet.”

CLIMATE CHANGE
By: Editor, LJ World.com - August 7, 2010

In 2007, a United Nations panel on climate change made up of 170 scientists warned us that greenhouse gas emissions have increased 70% between 1970 and 2004 and average warming over the past 50 years is very likely (a probability of over 90%) due to greenhouse gas increases.


SCIENTISTS DELIVER NEW
CO2 EMMISSION MODEL
By: CORDIS FP6: News -- August 5, 2010

Lead author Erick Roeckner of the Max Planck Institute for Meteorology in Hamburg, Germany predicts that CO2 emissions will climb by 3 billion tons of carbon to about 10 billion tons in 2015, and to ensure long-term stabilization of the atmospheric CO2 concentrations, emissions have to be cut by 56% in 40 years and approach zero emissions after 2050. “It will take centuries for the global climate system to stabilize,” Dr. Roeckner said.

GLOBAL WARMING IS UNDENIABLE
DAVID BIELLO, SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN - AUGUST 1, 2010

A new report from the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration lists 10 indicators that global warming is happening: rising humidity; rising sea surface temperature as well as heat stored in deeper waters; shrinking sea ice; glazer and springtime snow cover; rising temperatures over land and sea; and rising sea levels.


All point to a rapidly warming world. And all are based on actual observations, from satellites high in the sky to meteorological stations in the middle of a Kansas cornfield.

GREENLAND ICE IS ACCELERATING MELTING
IAN BROCKWELL, NEWS BLAZE – AUGUST 1, 2010

The discovery by a British research team that the Greenland Ice Sheet has seen a rapidly accelerating rate of melt, has revived fears that Global Warming is still a serious threat to the planet.


According to Dr. Alun Hubbard, who is leading a team from the Universities of Swansea and Aberystwyth, the ice sheet in their region has lowered six meters (19 feet, 6 inches) in just one month. As the ice turns to liquid, the surface reflects less of the Sun, thus accelerating the melt.


GREAT LAKES WARMING – JULY 31, 2010

The North American Great Lakes are 15 degrees Fahrenheit above normal this summer, approaching record warmth in some areas due to a shortened winter season with scarce ice, followed with a warm spring.

WORLD WARNED ENERGY PATH
UNSUSTAINABLE AT U.S. TALKS - July 19, 2010

Major officials from 21 countries making up 80% of Global Gross Domestic Product with a top policy board and the European Union and a number of international organizations were warning the world’s current energy path was unsustainable.


“Without major changes to the way we produce and in energy use, we will confront untenable risks to our collective energy security and to the environment in the future,” Nobuo Tanaka, executive director of the International Energy Agency (IEA) told the delegates.


The IEA, which advises advanced economies, said in a recent study that without a shift from fossil fuels, energy-related carbon dioxide emissions – which are blamed for global warming – would nearly double by 2050. Please see website: www.MZ-Energy.com


GLOBAL ESTIMATES OF HYDRATE-BOUND GAS IN MARINE SEDIMENTS: HOW MUCH IS REALLY OUT THERE?
BP America, Exploration and Production Technology Group, 501 Westlake Park Boulevard, Houston, TX 77079, USA

Received 9 May 2003;
accepted 19 November 2003.
Available online 6 February 2004.

Abstract

It is generally assumed that oceanic gas hydrates contain a huge volume of natural gases, mainly methane. The most widely cited estimate of global hydrate-bound gas is 21×1015 m3 of methane at STP (or 10,000 Gt (or 10 Trillion tons) of methane carbon), which is proposed as a “consensus value” from several independent estimations. This large gas hydrate reservoir is further suggested as an important component of the global carbon cycle and as a future energy source. Here, I present a revised and updated set of well-justified global estimates and discuss how and why they changed over time. It appears that the global estimates of hydrate-bound gas decreased by at least one order of magnitude from 1970s–early 1980s (estimates on the order of 1017–1018 m3) to late 1980s–early 1990s (1016 m3) to late 1990s–present (1014–1015 m3).

The decrease of estimates is a result of growing knowledge of the distribution and concentration of gas hydrates in marine sediments and ongoing efforts to better constrain the volume of hydrate-bearing sediments and their gas yield. These parameters appear to be relatively well constrained at present through DSDP/ODP drilling and direct measurements of gas concentrations in sediments.

The global estimate of hydrate-bound gas that best reflects the current knowledge of submarine gas hydrate is in the range (1–5)×1015 m3 ( 500–2500 Gt (or 500 Billion-2.5 trillion tons) of methane carbon). A significantly smaller global gas hydrate inventory implies that the role of gas hydrates in the global carbon cycle may not be as significant as speculated previously.

Gas hydrate may be considered a future energy source not because the global volume of hydrate-bound gas is large, but because some individual gas hydrate accumulations may contain significant and concentrated resources that may be profitably recovered in the future.

I, Manfred Zysk, previously have published several estimations of frozen methane hydrate deposits on the ocean floor amounting to 3.0 Trillion tons, and additional frozen methane hydrate deposits in the tundra and permafrost regions of Canada and Russia amounting to approximately 1.5 Trillion tons of methane for a combined total of up to 4.5 Trillion tons of methane.


As previously stated, large amounts of methane are now thawing on the ocean floor because of warmer ocean waters, and the tundra and permafrost is melting and releases large amounts of methane because of warmer air temperatures. On August 15, 2010, Fairbanks, Alaska’s temperature was 88 degrees Fahrenheit, and the all-time previous record some years ago was 82 degrees Fahrenheit.


The temperatures for Fairbanks, Alaska have been very warm for more than 1 year, and have very frequently been warmer than Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, and Los Angeles. The temperature today for Los Angeles was 86 degrees, and Fairbanks, Alaska was tied with Honolulu at 88 degrees Fahrenheit.

AAAS letter to Senator – October 21, 2009
As you consider climate change legislation, we, as leaders of scientific organizations, write to state the consensus scientific view.

“Observations throughout the world make it clear that climate change is occurring, and rigorous scientific research demonstrates that the greenhouse gases emitted by human activities are the primary driver. These conclusions are based on multiple independent lines of evidence, and contrary assertions are inconsistent with an objective assessment of the vast body of peer–reviewed science. Moreover, there is strong evidence that ongoing climate change will have broad impacts on society, including the global economy and on the environment.”

GLOBAL CLIMATE CHANGE IS REAL AND HERE
NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES – May 19, 2010

NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES REPORTS CONFIRM
HUMAN-CAUSED CLIMATE CHANGE POSES SIGNIFICANT RISKS


The National Academy of Sciences (NAC) panel concluded that climate change is largely caused by human activities by burning fossil fuel and destroying rain forests, which poses significant threat to public health and the global environment.

The second report urged the United States to significantly reduce global warming emissions because of severe risks associated with climate change, and the third report calls for a national strategy to prepare for social adaptations and economic changes due to current and impending climate changes that are now unavoidable. This report recommends that the government provide technical and scientific information to the public, the business sector, local governments and state governments for providing assistance toward any likely adaptations caused by more extreme weather events, floods and droughts.

The National Academy of Sciences has 2,100 members, 350 foreign associates with almost 200 Nobel Laureates, who are affiliated in 31 disciplinary fields of expertise such as Aerospace, Bioengineering, Chemical, Civil, Computer Sciences, Electric Power/Energy Systems, Electronics, Industrial, Manufacturing, Materials, Mechanical, and Earth Resources Engineering. In 1863 Abraham Lincoln established the National Academy of Science and was later expanded to include the National Research Council, the National Academy of Engineering and the Institute of Medicine. The leaders of the U.S. often seek the advice from NAC committees composed of the nation’s foremost scientists, engineers and leading experts for improving the health, education, economy and welfare of the population of this nation. An estimated two (2) million practicing engineers do research and develop new products in the United States.

The Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS) regards the NAC as: “They are deservedly a premier source of influential scientific guidance.” “The future is in our hands for the first time in history, we are now choosing the climate our children will inherit. The best available science makes clear that America’s climate choices must not be further delayed or distracted by shameful efforts to sow confusion and discord. It is time for the American people to call upon the Senate to act swiftly and decisively to significantly reduce our reliance on polluting fossil fuels.

“The NAC report should put to rest the unfounded contrary assertions advanced by special interests and help clarify the fact that our nation’s most distinguished scientists are unified in their support of this core message: Man-made climate change is real and we need to address it now.” For additional information please see website: www.MZ-Energy.com

PRESENT AND FUTURE DANGERS FACING THE USA
By: Manfred Zysk, M.E. - May 27, 2010
PUBLICATION IS AUTHORIZED BY AUTHOR

Primary dangers to the United States are mostly generated by internal politics, unjustifiable foreign wars over energy (oil), unjustifiable defense spending, economic exploitation of citizens, stock market speculation (flash trading), destructive capitalism, fossil fuel and energy depletion, global climate change and possible climate change economic/social consequences upon the United States and globally.

From a surplus of $8 Billion, our government now has generated a national debt of $13 Trillion. This happened primarily due to the last 20 years of war in the Middle East countries. These wars are not against foreign military forces or armies, but against civilians, women and children, and are over the access, exploitation and control of oil and natural gas deposits and resources.

The Defense Department has been receiving well over $1 Trillion annually and has absolutely nothing to show for this waste of money, while the wars are funded separately with borrowed money from other countries. The Trillions of borrowed money has many economic consequences such as the devaluation of the dollar, reduction in foreign trade, higher unemployment, higher cost of living, reductions in public services such as transportation, education, medical care, social security benefits, more competitiveness with foreign companies and imported goods, outsourcing of jobs to foreign countries, importation of cheap foreign laborers, massive bankruptcies, home foreclosures, restructuring of home loans, and a record of 49 million American citizens now live in poverty, and 27 million citizens unemployed, underemployed and disposed.

At this point there is little indication that a sufficient economic reversal is in sight. Most of the entire government, departments and federal agencies are either owned or controlled by the companies and corporations and their high profiteering demands take precedence over public needs and existing social programs. The banks are too big to fail and have to be bailed out financially with Trillions of Dollars after selling bogus unsecured bonds, securities and financial unsecured instruments to foreign countries. It was reported that a group of financiers planned the current financial crisis of Greece, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Ireland and others in order to bring down the European Union and their economy.

The United States is not immune from an economic collapse because Wall Street and the Stock Market are now involved in what is called “FLASH TRADING.” Large stock brokerage firms with supercomputers can execute huge volumes of trades in less than one (1) second. Programmed Supercomputers have the capability to force a stock market drop of 2,000 points within about 3 minutes, and the 1,000 point drop last week could be just a practice run for future stock manipulation and stock fraud. The global stock markets are not legitimate investment operations any longer, but now the global stock markets have become illegal and criminal financial exploiters. The United States government has not made any efforts to stop the possible collapse of the domestic stock market, or to warn the global stock markets.

Destructive Capitalism is when some industries and corporations wield complete power over the United States and other countries, including with the determined use of absolute military power and worldwide weapons sales. This is done by the infiltration into the lives of average citizens with influences and coercion by the news media, the utilization of shady or misinformation to the educational system and universities, and for the consumption to very many organizations, fraternities, institutes, foundations, societies, associations and academies.

The American people are herded like in a cattle drive into fascism, very similar to the era of Nazi Germany. I am not being unreasonably critical, but my concern is our democracy and the future of this country when the Constitution is invalidated, Civil Rights are eliminated, any person and citizen can be arrested without cause by our government, then this is what the Gestapo did in Nazi Germany, and this is what Soviet Russia did to fill the Gulags with thousands of people without cause or legal processes. Huge job losses and financial problems lead to greater family problems, racism, crime and desperation for survival.

This is what we are experiencing in the USA today with the ordinary working class who fear of being unemployed, less educated people who are driven into poverty, and the “Tea Baggers” vow to throw the bums out of Washington, D.C., but will vote into public office the same ilk that comes from the same rotting political system that have caused our economic misery in the first place. The “Tea Baggers” obliviously fail to recognize that their organization is sponsored by political opportunists and corrupt corporations, who hide in the background of such subversive activities to denounce science, denounce education, oil depletion, global climate changes, public healthcare, public medical care, and social security including retirement benefits in hope of swindling, plundering and stealing the remainder of this country’s wealth.

I need to remind my fellow American citizens that such promulgated Un-American activities are against the public interest, public welfare and these deliberate activities against the livelihood and pursuit of happiness of the general public are acts of treason as clearly stated in the Constitution as “Acts of Treason.” Sadly, the Constitution and the Bill of Rights are barely taught in the public school system in order to deprive our citizens of the basic rights provided by the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. Before I could enter the United States at the age of 15, I had to swear not to overthrow the US government. This gave me considerable apprehension as to why I should set foot onto the soil of this country, or to obligate myself to military duty without citizenship, but then I decided to see if it was really worthwhile.

Through my very hard work, determination and a lifetime of research, I admit of being a failure on account of intentional abuse and lawlessness by our government and corporations, but then again our government, corporations, the USA and the world are the beneficiaries of our utter neglect, greed, corruption and criminalities, because most or none of the world crisis’s and problems needed to occur. Our government in cooperation with government agencies, and various government departments in collusion with companies and corporations actively engage in unethical and criminal activities in domestic and foreign policies, and the stealing and the control of all types of technology and science for decades, which are of great national and global economy value.

In the late 1940s there was some concern about fossil fuel depletion and many scientists claimed that nuclear energy could be produced so cheap, that it would hardly pay to measure the cost of generated electricity. The big problem with electricity is the small energy value compared to oil or gasoline. But I realized that oil deposits are limited and world oil fields are inadequate to sustain the human race for centuries. Since then oil discoveries made oil the predominant energy source because of improvements of the internal combustion engine for the automobile and the transportation industry.

Some scientists were tinkering with all sorts of concepts, including perpetual motion, but perpetual motion was obviously considered an impossibility by the academia and universities.

My earnest research to build a small affordable jet plane for public transportation in 1963, the issue of oil, gasoline and adequate global fuel resources became most important. I therefore research the existence of present oil deposits, possible global oil deposits, and new methods of oil exploration. The oil companies claimed to have sufficient oil reserves for future demands, but regardless, I did not believe the oil companies, since my research data showed the US being depleted of oil about in 1977, and we needed to import oil. Therefore I researched for an alternative to oil or fossil fuel.

Hydrogen regeneration was the only energy source that can be formulated into much more powerful combustion than gasoline through chemical reactions which allow the excess energy to regenerate the chemical elements and components in a closed loop process for the merging of chemical elements into powerful reactions as well as the separation of these chemical elements several times over, and or for extended periods of time, depending upon the chemical formulas. This needed to be researched, and required much money.

After contacting the government for Research and Development funding, including the vaporization of gasoline, I experienced all sorts of serious problems and complications ever since, which could easily cover several volumes of books.

I urge all organizations, associations, universities, the national educational system and professions to demand the full reinstatement of the Constitution, The Bill of Rights and Civil Rights and to firmly apply all necessary legal means to deal with violators of previous established laws. In addition, all wars that are directed against civilians of men, women and children such as in Iraq, Afghanistan, Palestine and Pakistan involving high technology, electronic particle beams, germ and biological warfare agents, spent uranium weapons, nuclear and chemical agents and economic suppression of any kind are crimes against humanity and have to be prosecuted.

Of substantial concern is any research and development of numerous types of hydrogen weapons. There is absolutely no need or justification for developing hydrogen weapons today, and any country or governments that develops any hydrogen weapons is engaged in threatening the security of another country. We should all strongly oppose the creation and proliferation of another irrational nuclear war era, while we have 49 million American citizens living in poverty, and 27 million citizens are unemployed, underemployed and permanently disposed. Any research and development of hydrogen weapons is absolutely criminal and has to be condemned by all countries. Hydrogen energy can be developed safely as a substitute for fossil fuel and to serve humanity for several hundred years. An abundance of inexpensive energy should be our primary global aim.

Global Climate Changes are now upon this planet that is caused primarily by the industrialization of the world population. The majority of the world population are contributors to the continuous release of green house gases and carbon dioxide with 60% of total emissions. All industries and businesses suddenly feel threatened by the realization that their businesses will have to reduce their operations in order to use less carbon dioxide emitting fossil fuels.

The worst offenders of green house gas emissions lie, cheat and do anything to protect their business operations and profits, and do not want anything to interfere with their global dominating business plans. Therefore all sorts of schemes are devised by governments to sidestep effective demands and laws, such as engaging in carbon trading with less carbon emitting companies, industries and among countries. Instead of controlling this pending global disaster, the already existing climate change problems are intentionally allowed to become worse and will have enormous global economic consequences.

The weather reports in the last few weeks of Fairbanks, Alaska have been unusually warm and today on May 25, 2010, the temperature in Fairbanks reached a high of 77 degrees F. The Fairbanks temperatures were substantially higher than Seattle 66F, Portland 61F, San Francisco 63F, and Los Angeles 70 degrees F.

WORLD’S TOP ECONOMIC BODIES SAY CLIMATE CHANGE IS PRIORITY
Earthtimes.org – April 28, 2010

Berlin – The heads of the world’s five top financial and economic organizations called on Wednesday for climate change to remain a key issue and the global fight against climate change must remain a top priority by the World Bank, International Monetary Fund, the World Trade Organization, the Organization for Economy Co-operation and Development and the International Labour Organization.

U.S. UNION OF CONCERNED SCIENTISTS – April 27, 2010
The Union of Concerned Scientists representing 250,000 member citizens and scientists with 31 national organizations and millions of Americans who support strong clean energy and climate change legislation, we write to urge the U.S. Senate not to squander the great promise of by-partisan action we’ve witnessed over the last six months to create jobs, strengthen our national security, and reduce carbon pollution. We can’t afford to delay action any longer; we urge the Senate to take up a comprehensive energy and climate bill in June. Without a comprehensive policy, we cannot end the practice of exporting $1 billion a day for foreign oil and will remain at the whim of hostile regimes.

GEOLOGICAL SOCIETY OF AMERICA - April 26, 2010
The Geological Society of America (GSA) concurs with assessments by the National Academies of Science (2005), the National Research Council (2006), and the International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC, 2007) that global climate has warmed and that human activities (mainly greenhouse gas emissions) account for most the warming since the middle 1900s.


In the face of heightened attacks on climate scientists, the Geological Society of America has made a strong statement calling on their membership to engage – forcefully – in the public discussion of climate change issues.


More importantly, the Geological Society of America is recommending that its membership (22,000+) to become active participants in discussion of climate change debate, including to actively participate in professional education and discussion activities to be technically informed about the latest advances in climate science.


GSA should encourage symposia at regional, national and international meeting to inform members on mainstream understanding among geoscientists and climate scientists or the causes and future effects of global warming within the broader context of natural variability. Engage in public activities in the community, including the local level. Public education is a critical element of a proactive response to the challenges presented by global climate change. GSA members are encouraged to take an active part in outreach activities to educate the public at all levels (local, regional, national and international) about the science of global warming and the important of geological research in framing policy development.


GSA members are encouraged to discuss with businesses and policy makers the science of global warming, as well as opportunities for transitioning from our predominant dependence on fossil fuels to greater use of low-carbon energies and energy efficiencies.

AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF PHYSICS - April 21, 2010

Emissions of greenhouse gases from human activities are changing the atmosphere in ways that affect the Earth’s climate. They are emitted from fossil fuel combustion and a range of industrial and agricultural processes.


The evidence is incontrovertible: Global warming is occurring. If no mitigating actions are taken, significant disruptions in the Earth’s physical and ecological systems, social systems, security and human health are likely to occur. We must reduce emissions of greenhouse gases beginning now. For additional information please see: www.MZ-Energy.com


Because of the complexity of the climate makes accurate predictions difficult, the APS urges an enhanced effort to understand the effects of human activity on the Earth’s climate, and to provide the technological options for meeting the climate challenge in the near and longer terms. The APS also urges governments, universities, national laboratories and its membership to support policies and actions that will reduce the emission of greenhouse gases.


The American Physical Society with over 48,000 members is the leading U.S. organization for the advancement in physics and science education in cooperation with physical societies worldwide.


Whenever a natural resource is being depleted, or becomes scarce and/or too expensive such as copper, aluminum, oil, coal and natural gas, then logically an alternative resource needs to be developed. The U.S. Energy Information Administration insists that the world will “require new oil production equivalent to three (3) Saudi Arabia’s by 2025” to meet projected growing global demand, which requires exploration, permitting, drilling, production, pipelines, tankers, storage facilities and refineries.


THE INTERNATIONAL ENERGY AGENCY (IEA) - April 12, 2010

The decline rate in oil production in existing fields dropped in 2007 from 3.7% to 6.7% a year. If production continues to drop for 10 years between 4% and 6.7%, then the depletion in existing oil fields would amount to 40% and 67% in 2020.


Data released on April 8, 2010, shows the U.S. imports 13.47 million barrels per day (67%), which is more than the daily production of Saudi Arabia and about 1/3 of world oil production. The Department of Energy estimates all known and existing oil discoveries and production will enter a slow persistent decline beginning in 2012. DOE data shows a 10 million barrel per day shortfall between supply and demand within 5 years. This global oil shortfall can have large impacts on global gasoline prices, jobs, transportation, foreign trade, currencies and the global economy. Any remaining oil in the U.S. and off-shore would take about 10 years to develop, and quantities are unknown, which is also too little too late.


The entire world became addicted to oil and fossil fuel, and the entire global energy industries and governments ignored the early warnings by some concerned individuals like me in the early 1960s. Much more available energy was needed for future products and population growth. Even under the best of circumstances today, all the oil corporations and the entire energy industry are not able to fulfill the future global oil and energy needs any longer, regardless of their futile protestations and claims.


Denials of fossil fuel depletion are made while at the same time wars are being waged over oil and fossil fuel in the Mid-East and other regions. Likewise, denials about global climate changes, due to carbon dioxide emissions and nuclear radiation emissions into the atmosphere are now being waged with a global war-like propaganda operation from all directions, including the use of religious fanaticism.


The American Institute, Heartland Institute, Cato Institute, American Petroleum Institute, Americans for Prosperity, Koch Industries, Universities such as Harvard-Smithsonian Institute, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, University of Virginia, John Birch Society, Scientists and about 40 climate denial groups, scientists at various universities and national news media are funded by utility companies, coal companies, oil companies and the automobile industry for over 20 years. On several occasions, I submitted verified factual information to the Heartland Institute editors and management, and to right-wing organizations, but they relentlessly publish deceptive and false information. These rigid organizations with their direct influence in government have become a national/global liability, and are obstructing the development of the world population. No plans exist for managing the needs of the growing national/global population in the future. Solutions are required very soon, or yesterday.


The inflicted global economic damages from diminishing and costly energy resources, with continued CO2 emissions from remaining fossil fuel, combined with the environmental damages caused by accelerating global climate changes, can easily develop into a condition where an economic recovery may take many years, or more than a generation. The only readily available energy resource for global population sustainability is hydrogen (11%), obtained from the oceans and by developing my proposed hydrogen energy regeneration processes to replace fossil fuel, which require a large national/ international hydrogen energy development program.


The disavowal of Fossil Fuel Depletion, Global Climate Change denials, and to do nothing from evident dimwits, are obviously not the solution and can lead to national economic suicide. The most despicable and criminal tactics are being used by planting erroneous and false information and then using these fabrications and false information to befuddle the public to justify any illegal and criminal activities by companies, corporations, military, intelligence organizations and governments for exploitive schemes, corrupt politics and for inducing wars, which have global economic implications. According to historical evidence, the same irrational tactics are now re-enacted and imposed upon populations with few new gimmicks, but with a litany of denials. Major U.S. News Networks have sunk so low that they even deny and lie about the changes in the climate and the weather. Unbelievable, but disgracefully true. How can this be happening! A senator on the radio stated the lobbying by corporations amount to over $300 million, and our government virtually has ceased to function as a legitimate government.


The time has come for everyone to understand that the era of fossil fuel is shortly coming to an end. It means that every person, small businesses, companies and corporations have to recognize that a substitute to fossil fuel is urgently needed. If and when public funds are used, then the most economical and beneficial energy plans need to be implemented in the public and business interests. Present maximizing profit schemes have to be shelved, and every effort has to be made to unify the public and develop a workable economic system we all can be proud of, and then fully appreciate our hard work and accomplishments. This can be a most gratifying and lasting experience with an abundance of opportunities. For additional information please see website: www.MZ-Energy.com


The USA used to be known as the world leader in education, technology and innovation, but now for reasons of maximizing profit motives and greed, the USA cannot save itself from its created disintegration and probable economic disaster. The USA has become evidently impotent and suicidal, and its government demands and insists upon its own economic destruction by any and all possible means. The American economy is based solely on consumerism. The bankrupt U.S. banks have taken federal bail-out money and invested the funds into government securities, yielding 3% interest. Credit card interest charges are suddenly raised to 25% and 30%, generating additional huge debts onto credit card accounts, and fueling the financial/economic crisis. This is not capitalism, it is simply greed driven into frantic economic cannibalism and sheer insanity. When the American economy has been reduced to the lowest wages in the world, then all our multi-national corporations are not able to sell imported goods any longer, because the American public is so dependent upon imports, but is not able to afford these imports any more. America has become the New Roman Empire and is running out of energy and steam, and its leaders are not courageous enough to approve of new energy solutions for fear that most countries would and could become energy independent from the United States. The pipedream of world domination is coming to an end.


40% of global carbon dioxide emissions come from natural sources, but 60% of carbon dioxide emissions come from industrial and man-made sources.

U.S. UNEQUIVOCAL ABOUT CLIMATE CHANGE IN UNFCCC REPORT
Quote from President Barack Obama: “The threat from climate change is serious, it is urgent, and it is growing. Our generation’s response to this challenge will be judged by history, for if we fail to meet it – boldly, swiftly, and together – we risk consigning future generations to an irreversible catastrophe.”

NATIONAL OCEANIC AND ATMOSPHERIC ADMINISTRATION
April 14, 2010

March 2010 was the warmest March on record, based on the world’s combined global land and ocean surface temperatures, and that the period from January to March was the fourth warmest the planet has seen with a rise in temperature of 1.19F above the 20th century average. The March worldwide land surface temperature was 2.45F above the 20th century average. Anomalies can change this data.

CO2 AT NEW HIGHS DESPITE RECESSION - Oslo, Norway
Reuters, March 15, 2010

Johan Stroem of the Norwegian Polar Institute and Stockholm University compiled CO2 data from the Arctic Svalbard Archipelago for early March 2009 measuring 393.17 ppm, and early March 2010 measuring 393.71 ppm of CO2. The economic recession did not reduce the CO2 emissions as was expected. Kim Holmen at the Norwegian Polar Institute said: the data “seem to show that we continue to emit as if there was no tomorrow.” A 2009 study of the ocean off Africa indicate carbon levels in the atmosphere were at their highest in 2.1 million years.


As I previously published, tropical air currents warm the oceans which continually produce more moisture into the atmosphere. Heat is energy which can produce major wind storms, tornados and hurricanes. A continuous generation of heat pushes warm air masses into the arctic to melt permafrost, and warmer ocean air currents are thawing the Arctic ice shelves from above the sea surface, and the warmer ocean waters below the sea surface are melting the Arctic ice shelves from below the sea surface, and is melting the frozen methane hydrates which are located on the ocean floor worldwide and around all continents. The annual emissions of methane hydrates amount to 440 million tons and are the equivalent between 11 billion to 13.2 billion tons of Carbon Dioxide.


Continuous 24-hour heat generation forces these air masses to condense into the Arctic regions as well as into the Antarctic regions and produces air turbulences. The continuous accumulation of condensed air masses from the Arctic are then forced to move southward and bring major snow storms during the winter months, but when being fronted and converged with warm moisture laden air masses from the tropical regions, then the combined air masses produce large rain storms and flooding. Electricity and heat produce stronger air currents and have a cooling effect upon the global atmosphere.


As the seasons change into summer, the tropical and sub-tropical regions become continuously hotter and produce shifting weather patterns, droughts, deserts, crop failures, hurricanes, tornadoes, electricity brownouts, and major economic damages. Similarly, this happens at the Antarctic and in the Southern Hemisphere as well, except that most of the total Earth land mass amounting to 29.1% (148.6 million sq. km) 13.9 million sq. miles is located in the Northern Hemisphere, where most of the economic damages are expected to occur. Pease see my website: www.MZ-Energy.com


Most of the world surface area is covered by the oceans and amount to 70.9% (361.4 million sq. km) 57.4 million sq. miles, and the Southern Hemisphere disproportionally contains most of the ocean waters with 82.3%. This means that the melting ice and water is mostly distributed into the Southern Hemisphere, and can affect the balance of the Earth, by shifting the Magnetic North Pole by approximately 9 miles (15 kilometers) annually towards Russia, and has a daily elliptical movement of 50 miles (80 kilometers) from its center point according to verified research. After approximately 400 years of relative calm, the North Magnetic Pole has moved about 685 miles (1100 km) northwest in the last 100 years, and is expected to reach Siberia in about 50 years.


National Geographic News – December 15, 2005

New research shows the pole moving at rapid clip – 25 miles (40 kilometers) a year. The movement of the pole definitely appears to be accelerating. The last pole reversals occurred 780,000 years ago and have taken place about 400 times in the last 330 million years. Joe Stoner, a paleomagnetist at Oregon State University said: “It’s probably just a normal wandering of the pole.” (This would be about 250 miles or 400 kilometers of shifting of the Arctic Pole and some shifting of the Equator just in the next ten (10) years.)


National Geographic News – December 24, 2009

Earth’s north magnetic pole is racing toward Russia at almost 40 mile (64 kilometers) a year due to magnetic changes in the planet’s core, new research says. (This would be about 400 miles or 640 kilometers in only 10 years time. This explains the lower magnetism of the North Pole, because the Earth’s core is shifting as well. The big question is how far the Arctic Pole can continue to shift in view of the present Earth gravitational rotation and regain its equatorial balance and equilibrium. The Earth Poles has always been moving and shifting for very many millions of years, but the present acceleration of pole shifting should be of substantial concern. This is very serious and needs to be watched closely.)


Such weight shifting of the Earth Axis will affect the ocean currents, Gulf Stream circulation pattern, including the weight upon various Earth Plates, and produce volcanic eruptions and earthquakes in weak Earth Plate locations. Because of the present Earth rotation and speed, the Earth is trying to compensate for any weight changes and imbalances, which is also being displayed by movements of earth plates with active volcanoes and earthquakes. The Earth is composed of 5 layers consisting of an inner core, outer core, lower mantle, upper mantle and the crust which can rotate at different, irregular speeds, compared to the crust and consists of earth plates. The earth core is also drifting to compensate for any weight irregularities.


My entire research is meant to provide comprehensive information and a truthful assessment of present global conditions. None of my assessment is to cause any undue fear or harm, but hopefully points toward our self reliance and useful direction for the future. Since we have developed a good measure of technology, particularly in global food production, then we could utilize technology to overcome various anticipated global problems involving natural resources, climate and overall global human environment.


This year in 2010, we need to understand the true situation of Global Climate Change and that we are already in a serious chain reaction of climate events which become worse if not rectified. We are experiencing huge electric power outages lasting over 1 week at a time for 500,000 to over 1 million people across the United States from major snow storms, rain storms, 70 mile an hour (112km) winds, flooding including brownouts in the summer due to high electricity demand. Such year-round electricity failures will not work very well for electric cars and will cause substantial economic losses, particularly when, or if climate changes become substantially worse in the near future. The present type concept and technology for electric cars are inadequate to meet our future transportation requirements.


If we eliminate carbon emissions, we eliminate the melting of polar ice, the melting of permafrost, the melting of methane hydrates on the ocean floor thereby we reduce and eliminate worsening weather patterns such as droughts, floods, tornadoes, hurricanes, and major agricultural and economic losses. This is a monumental and costly task, and none of the present initiatives by the United States, European Union or the United Nations are adequate to reverse the present climate trend, and we do not have the determination to ensure the human survival. Although an attempt will be made out of desperation when global climate conditions become extremely severe, but by that time any efforts will be too little and too late as usual. For additional information please see website: www.MZ-Energy.com


The final result is that our global climate is changing due to the emissions from methane, carbon dioxide and chemicals which in turn cause a chain reaction of events that when combined accelerate the frequency of global disasters. It can be expected that this global trend will continue until the most affective scientific methods and processes are able to produce a reversal in this global trend. An effective methane and carbon dioxide disposal is fertilizer. This fertilizer is formulated with a time release, including several advantageous chemical formulas, and is most useful for most crops, agriculture, fruit trees and for planting new forests. If the human race continues to destroy the Earth natural environment, then the consequences will become worse than they are now – obviously. These simple truths cannot be denied and are evidenced by the continuous acceleration of natural disasters no matter how many lies are generated by exploiters, corporations and governments.


Re-issued from September 16, 2009. - At the present, global warming due to CO2, methane, and chemical emissions are melting the Arctic and Antarctic ice shelves which in turn produce a chain reaction that create warmer temperatures in the Northern Hemisphere with wind currents, warmer ocean currents which in turn melt the permafrost. Present Permafrost is melting at an annual rate of 1.5 inches (4 centimeters), or 15 inches (40 centimeters) in 10 years.

The global permafrost is estimated to contain approximately 950 billion to 1.5 trillion tons of stored methane and annual methane emissions are presently estimated at 440 million tons. Methane is 25 to 30 times stronger than CO2, and the 440 million tons of methane is the equivalent to 11 to 13.2 billion tons of carbon dioxide.

A study indicated that when a 10 percent release of atmospheric CO2 from permafrost would increase the count of parts per million by 80, or to about 467 ppm. Records show that Greenland previously became free of ice at 400 ppm, and Hawaii already recorded 400 ppm of CO2 emissions. Frozen Permafrost and Tundra come in thicknesses from 50 to 600 meters (160 to 2,000 feet). Organic decomposition of thawed vegetation and soil of permafrost can reach depths of more than 30 feet. The Arctic, Canada and Siberia permafrost and Tundra are thawing at a rate of 4 centimeters (1.5 inches) per year, and some areas are thawing 15 inches (38 centimeters) annually. Exploration of permafrost depth and Tundra thickness of the Northern Hemisphere is extremely important and much of this can be done with satellite topography in combination with ground research teams.

There are approximately 3 trillion tons of methane gas contained in frozen hydrates beneath the ocean floor along the East and West Coast of South America, North America, entire North Pacific, Asia, Indonesia, Australia, India, Arabian Sea, around the coasts of East and West Africa and a large area of the Barents Sea. The methane hydrate was found in thick sediment layers of 15-20 meters (50-65 feet) in China, 132 meters (433 feet) in India, and Andaman Islands 600 meters (984 feet) in frozen hydrates beneath the ocean floor. The Andaman Islands just had a 7.6 earthquake in the Indian Ocean on August 10, 2009, and an earthquake in 2004 killed 228,000 people.

The Arctic and Antarctic melting ice dilutes the salinity of ocean currents which then is expected to slow down the ocean currents. The slowing of ocean currents heats the ocean waters which then cause storms and hurricanes and increases the melting of the frozen permafrost and stored methane on the ocean floor.

The huge problem are the 950-1,500 billion tons of methane stored in the frozen permafrost of the Tundra amounting to 30% of the land surface area in Canada (11.5 Million Sq. Miles) including in the World surface area of 20% ( 57.9 Million Sq. Miles), and the 3 trillion tons of methane that is stored beneath the ocean floor. The combined quantity of methane in the permafrost and frozen methane hydrates in the ocean floor sediment amount to approximately 3.95-4.5 trillion tons, and are the equivalent to approximately 100 Trillion to 135 Trillion Tons of Carbon Dioxide (CO2).

Warmer wind currents and warmer ocean water currents are causing major changes in the overall global weather system by continuously feeding more methane into the atmosphere from the melting permafrost as well as from warmer oceans releasing ever more methane from the ocean floor. Warmer air and warmer ocean water are expected to increase air currents and water currents to cause underwater turbulence which is expected to thaw the frozen methane on the ocean floor, and release large amounts of more methane hydrates into the atmosphere. The frozen methane on the ocean floor covers such an immensely large area, that it warrants the publication of this map below, and it was published by Energy Outlook 2007 and Der Spiegel, 2005 and labeled as Energy from Ice (Global distribution of methane hydrate deposits on the ocean floor. Source: Klaudia and Sandler, 2005.

The World Map below shows large amounts of methane (dark blue) enveloping the continents. This map also shows that some of the areas of methane during pre-historic times contained vegetation and animals including sea creatures which over time of millions of years have decomposed into methane – and now became frozen methane because of much higher water tables and because of the expansion of the continents and earth plate movements. Much of the frozen methane is in relatively shallow ocean waters around these continents as shown on the map below.

The planned sequestration of CO2 on the ocean floor will be dangerous because the CO2 will spread out over a large ocean floor area and warmer air and ocean currents cause an upwelling motion toward the water surface and release the CO2 into the atmosphere. In addition, there are earth plate movements, plate tectonics and underwater earthquakes causing tsunamis which can cause violent shaking and movement of the sequestered CO2 toward the ocean surface. South East Asia and the Indian Ocean countries are riddled with earthquakes on a regular basis, and the sequestration of CO2 on the ocean floor is out of the question.

When viewing the global earth plate movements and plate buckling, earth plate subduction, active global earthquakes and the amount of existing methane deposits on the ocean floor, it becomes obvious that the sequestration of CO2 on the ocean floor can become catastrophic. A NASA study in 2001 shows a huge release of frozen sea floor methane about 55 million years ago that heated the Earth by 13 degrees F. (7 degrees C.), and that was a huge catastrophe.

With the global warming of the air and the warming of ocean waters, the ocean floor is then melting the frozen methane, which has a tendency to carry the CO2 gas to the surface of the ocean and the wind carries the methane and additional CO2 into the atmosphere. Then this is a global catastrophe, and the consequences are unimaginable to the human race. Climate changes such as increased warmer temperatures over several continents have an effect on air currents and therefore change the jet-stream and existing weather patterns into unusual and abnormal conditions. This causes a more profound force and velocity that in turn tend to shift the overall world weather pattern into global warming, particularly in the Northern Hemisphere. The earth rotation with fluctuating temperatures of day and night, including seasonal temperature changes combined with the annual movement of the North Pole contribute to the present global climate changes.

Since April, 2009, I have checked the daily temperatures of Fairbanks, Alaska. During this time I was shocked to see that the temperatures in Fairbanks (72-85 degrees) repeatedly were warmer than in Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, Chicago, Kansas City and Los Angeles. The average Fairbanks temperature for the month of July is 72 degrees.

The ever increasing amount of airborne toxic chemicals, carbon dioxide and nuclear radiation emissions into the atmosphere worldwide are reaching a dangerous limit by contaminating the atmosphere, the soil and food supply, with increasing health problems, by reaching limits of acidity and CO2 absorbency by the oceans, and when combined, the airborne toxic chemicals are causing global climate changes, and changes in present weather patterns. For more information please see website: www.MZ-Energy.com


Serious consideration should be given to research and the latest press releases about global climate changes and the accelerating release of methane from thawing permafrost and methane hydrates from the ocean floor combined contain approximately 3.9 – 4.5 Trillion tons of methane while the oceans are becoming steadily warmer. Warmer oceans release more warm moisture and thaw more permafrost on land, while at the same time warmer ocean waters will accelerate the thawing of methane hydrates on the ocean floor in continuously increased volumes and in an accelerating cycle.


According to the latest research reports, the thawing of methane that is released from the permafrost and the methane hydrates that is released from the ocean floor has not been incorporated into the global climate change research analysis by the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (UN-IPCC). This is very serious, because regardless of how many years it would take in an all-out effort to stabilize and reverse Global Climate Change, it would take an additional several years to stop the warming of the oceans, and then several years to cool the oceans.


This happens from industrialization and increasing global population growth. In order to reduce or eliminate this pending manmade climate change catastrophe, it is necessary to take appropriate action. Any cap-and-trade legislation allows even more greenhouse gas and CO2 emissions into the atmosphere, and causes a greater climate crisis. According to measurements, the Western Antarctic Peninsula alone has lost about 8,000 square miles of ice during the last 50 years.

The Union of Concerned Scientists
(action@ucsusa.org) Feb. 22, 2010

The Union of Concerned Scientists with over 75,000 memberships disclosed: “Corporations, front groups, and climate deniers who oppose critical efforts to curb global warming are waging an all-out war on science in the news media every day and mislead the public about global warming.” Our opponents have deep pockets and bankroll their fraudulent claims and broadcast them to the world. The facts are:


The first 10 years of this century have been the warmest decade on record.
Sea ice in the Arctic melted to its third-lowest area ever measured last summer.
Worldwide, ocean temperatures last summer were hotter than ever previously recorded.
Carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere are currently the highest they have been in at least 800,000 years.


If global emissions continue unabated, taxpayers could be saddled with hundreds of billions of dollars in damages – from flooding, storm damages, agricultural losses, healthcare costs and huge annual economic losses.


The Union of Concerned Scientists advocate: Clean renewable energy, less dirty fossil fuels, better fuel economy standards, new emission reductions for cars, and advocate sustainable agricultural practices to protect air, water, soil and reduce warming emissions.


TELEGRAPH – UK 3/23/2010 - World’s oil reserves have been exaggerated by up to a third, according to Sir David King, former chief scientist.


TELEGRAPH – UK 3/22/2010 - A study found Onshore Wind Farms are producing less than a fifth (1/5) of electricity predicted – some producing less than 10%.


President Barack Obama has emphasized the importance of developing new sources of energy and cultivating the jobs that will come with them. “I am convinced that whoever builds a clean energy economy, whoever is at the forefront of that, is going to own the 21st - century global economy” at a meeting of governors at the White House on February 3, 2010.


February 4, 2010, the Pentagon called climate change a threat to national security that “may spark or exacerbate future conflicts.” “Assessments conducted by the intelligence community indicate that climate change could have significant geopolitical impacts around the world, contributing to poverty, environmental degradation, and the further weakening of fragile governments.”


Bill Gates at the TED Conference on February 12, 2010 said: “What we are going to have to do at a global scale is create a new system, so we need energy miracles.” The world must eliminate all of its carbon emissions and cut energy costs in half in order to prevent a climate catastrophe, which will hit the world’s poorest hardest. “We have to drive full speed and get a miracle in a pretty tight timeline.” Please see my website: www.MZ-Energy.com


In 2009 alone, Big Oil and other energy interests spent a record breaking $154 million just for lobbying efforts, which includes an aggressive smear campaign to kill clean energy legislation. According to the recent Supreme Court decision, our senators and congressmen can be bought and bribed by the oil and energy corporations with unlimited amounts of money. The disregard to national priorities and the favoritism toward Big Oil and energy corporations at this rate will bring on a major economic depression.


At the British Royal Society on February 10, 2010, the Industry Taskforce on Peak Oil and Energy Security released a new report that oil shortages, insecurities of supply and price volatility will destabilize economic, political and social activity within 5 years, and Peak Oil must be a priority for the government. The Industry Taskforce warns that the United Kingdom is ill-prepared for rising oil prices brought on by dwindling supplies. “Working together, we must ensure that the government takes action to address the impact of the oil crunch and ensure the UK is better prepared to withstand higher and more volatile oil prices.”

Major oil companies have admitted that the supply of oil is diminishing in the next few years, as well as in the future, because super oil field exploration have resulted in fewer worthwhile oil fields, and existing oil fields become depleted. British Petroleum stated it is usually able to get 25% to 40% of the oil in place, but only as much as 30% is extracted from the ground in practice. The Mid-East (Iraq, Iran) and South America still have a substantial amount of oil in the ground or off-shore, but those countries are not very willing to dispose or squander their oil treasure.

Present and future global oil production as well as oil depletion is expected to remain constant through 2014, but after that, world oil production will go into decline. The ability to continue the increase of global oil production will come to an end this year, and oil prices are expected to remain relatively stable for about 1 to 2 years, unless the oil supply is disrupted.

Therefore, energy companies and oil companies are scrambling to invest into tar sands, oil shale, coal, natural gas, nuclear power, wind and solar energy with anticipation of generating high profits from diminishing fossil fuel energy resources in the near future. Electricity production inefficiency and waste is estimated at 25% to 44%.

The true facts about nuclear power energy are astonishing. Global nuclear power plants amount to 435 with an average lifespan of 25-35 years, require 15 years for investment payback, and cost approximately $7 billion to $15+ billion each for construction, operating costs, nuclear waste storage, decommissioning, safety violations, insurance costs, et cetera. Nuclear power plant costs, operation and electricity costs have been skyrocketing. To date the USA has invested over $500 billion into 104 operating nuclear power plants. 40% of nuclear fuel is imported and nuclear power will not provide energy independence as is claimed. 400 additional reactors are planned worldwide at an estimated cost of $24 Trillion ($60 billion each) just for construction alone. Each reactor produces 30 to 50 tons of “high-level” radioactive waste each year, and 400 reactors would produce a total of 12,000 to 20,000 tons of radioactive waste annually.

Increased volumes of radiation concentrations and contamination will become a serious health problem, especially during weather inversions along the East Coast of the United States. Three foot thick concrete walls do not contain radiation at all, and the radiation is released into the atmosphere unrestricted. Exposure of 40+ years of such large continuous radiation contamination emissions into the atmosphere and into all food supply can ultimately affect the immune system and health particularly to the population who live about 100 miles downwind from nuclear power plants. The United States in 2008 imported 34.2 million short tons of coal for about $1.95 billion.

Unless a new form of energy is produced immediately, any further reductions or constriction of the energy supply causes serious economic repercussions, because at the present, this planet does not have an alternative energy source in place to replace fossil fuel. To develop and to market my Hydrogen Energy Regeneration Processes and Systems in the USA and globally would require a substantial amount of money and time, of which we do not have anymore. Please see my website: www.MZ-Energy.com

Present and future population growth increases energy demands which cannot be met because of limited fossil fuel resources. The global demands for the next 40 and 60 years for energy, food, jobs, housing, clothing, daily necessities, transportation, commodities, infrastructure and services can be reasonably estimated. Many economic adjustments need to be made accordingly, especially by all governments and the military. This places the existing human race into a very difficult survival situation for at least half of the world population of 3.4 billion people.

The doubling of current World Population Growth rate is estimated at 61 years, while in the 1960s, the doubling of the World Population was only 35 years. Presently, many Asian and African countries double their population in about 15 years. World population in 2009 was estimated at 6.8 billion people, and in the year 2050 the World Population is estimated at approximately 9.4 billion people. Such global population growth places tremendous strains upon many natural resources, energy supply, infrastructure, services and economy.

The International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Climate Research results are validated and were confirmed by scientists, oceanographers, planetary scientists, naturalists, glaciologists, paleontologists and geographers from six (6) continents, including the British Antarctic Survey, British and German Universities, California and Massachusetts Universities, the British Royal Society, U.S. National Academy of Sciences, NASA, the U.S. National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration and the European Space Agency. The average growing season for crops in the Northern Hemisphere has increased by 11 days due to ongoing Global Climate changes.

The present controversy in the news media about global climate change and heavy snowfall in the northern hemisphere contains poor logic and lack of common sense. The weather is indeed changing as I have previously disclosed, and summers are becoming hotter, and the winters are more severe and/or colder. The present warmer Ocean waters generate more moisture into the atmosphere and the warm air currents push this moisture in a steady stream and with force into the Arctic region, where the moist air is condensed and forced to move southward blanketing large portions of the United States, Europe and the Northern Hemisphere with cold and massive snow storms.

The daily heating and cooling cycle of day and night by the rotating Earth, including summer and winter cycling of the Earth in relationship to the sun produces wind currents and turbulences which correspondingly affect changes in the weather, especially with increased volumes of moisture, water vapor and heat into the atmosphere that is generated by and from warmer and heated ocean waters, and is then pushed into the arctic to condense.

The interaction of cold air currents from the Arctic and warm air currents from tropical regions can be continuously monitored around the Earth with satellites. Any changes in weather patterns obtained from satellites on a daily basis and over several years are automatically programmed into computers and provide positive proof of any global climate changes. Satellite data and ground observations will become undisputable.

In addition, when the cold condensed moisture laden air masses from the Arctic converge with the warm air masses from the tropical regions generate large churning patterns which frequently result in either heavy rains or major snow storms, depending on the temperature and sustained velocity and pressure of wind currents of the cold and warm air. These churning air masses frequently turn into vortexes and tornados in the spring time. The Gulf Stream flow pattern does show changes in our weather patterns. Unusual warm winter weather is occurring in the Oregon coastal region for several years and substantial amounts of rain is replacing snowfall during winter months.

Many years ago, hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) were promoted to replace ozone-damaging hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs), and now is closing the Antarctic ozone hole. HFC-134a can trap 3,400 times more heat in the atmosphere than CO2, and now HFCs are contributing to changes into warmer temperatures and climate, and for melting the ice shelves in the Antarctic. CO2 is now being used as the best refrigerant.

Large amounts of global permafrost and frozen methane are being thawed on the ocean floor. Global permafrost and methane amount to approximately 950 billion to 1.5 trillion tons. Present annual methane emissions are estimated at about 150-250 million tons. These emissions contribute to climate changes by further warming the oceans and melting the ice in the Arctic and Antarctic. If or when the melting ice raises the ocean sea levels by 4-6 feet, then large remaining ice shelves could be forced to rise and float, break up and separate from the sediment structure, and then disintegrate. If this were to happen, then this would no doubt be a climate catastrophe. The UN-International Panel on Climate Change is correct in being alarmed and to plan for taking appropriate measures in the global interest. Solutions are being worked on, and the Deniers of Global Warming and Climate Change are simply Dimwits.

The National Snow and Ice Data Center shows Arctic sea ice for January 2010 averaged 13.78 million square kilometers (5.32 million square miles). This was 1.08 million square kilometers (417,000 square miles) below the 1979 to 2000 average for January. NASA satellite shows that Antarctica has been losing more than 100 cubic kilometers (24 cubic miles) of ice since 2002, and is accelerating. NASA/German Aerospace suggests that since 2006 there has been more ice loss from East Antarctica than previously thought. Please see website: www.MZ-Energy.com

“Scientists with Oregon State University and the State Geology and Mineral Industries Department believe that not only is the sea level rising, but they have recently determined that maximum wave heights – those mammoth waves that occur offshore during the winter months – have risen dramatically from a previously estimated 33 feet to as much as 46 feet. Possible causes might be changes in storm tracks, higher winds, more intense winter storms, or other factors. These probably are related to global warming, but it could also be involved with periodic climate fluctuations . . . and our wave records are sufficiently short that we can’t be certain yet. But what is clear (is) the waves are getting larger. And they are taking their toll on the coastline. There was tremendous erosion and 492 feet (150 meters) of beach along the shoreline has disappeared in recent years” at two towns along the Oregon north coast.

This is elementary and hardly science, and only shows of how befuddled and dishonest the news media and greedy corporations have become. Denials of global climate changes and the denials of finite fossil fuel depletion (consumption) are outright lunacy. All the shouting, screaming, lying, faking and antics will not change the obvious natural environmental consequences caused by human consumption and/or abuse. The real problem usually involves maximum exploitation and greed by corporations or entire industries, because their only aim is to maximize profits. Then the corporations demand bailouts from the government and from the overburdened American citizens in order to stay in business, just like the Nuclear Power Industry, and to pay for their generated, hazardous nuclear waste disposal. Now the Nuclear Power Industry wants to expand their operations, which continuously increases the risks of nuclear war and more human health concerns. The insurance companies are reluctant to take on $10 to $20+ billion of unknown liability and risk policies for these nuclear power plants.

The plan of mass abandonment of our cities, and the resettlement of most people in the United States into small villages and towns was advocated by religious fundamentalists preachers a few years ago, would only cause future poverty, disorientation, and massive economic breakdown of the entire country, including the elimination of most businesses, companies, corporations, the stock market, foreign trade, the public school system, most universities, government, medical health care and the elimination of social security, including the elimination of ships, trains, planes, trucks, cars, television and communication. The plan was to herd the public like in a stolid cattle drive into abject subservience and servitude. We do need to solve any crisis and problems preferably before they occur in this day and age, and should not submit to dimwitted rhetoric of ignorance and bamboozlings by snake charmers, snake oil salesmen and religious zealots posing as religious, moral leaders, including by an irresponsible news media fueling more distrust and hate.

Subjugation and further oppression in any form (including religion) of large segments of the world population has economic consequences and only increases the risk of obvious worldwide rioting, terror and revolution. Now is the time to assess our vulnerabilities and assets for a survivable future and progress. Promises of pending economic progress by politicians, governments and fossil fuel energy suppliers are useless, unless they can be proven by annual progress, results and verifiable future energy security of resources for at least the next 60 years. Lying and swindling the public is no longer acceptable or working. The best solution is to assemble all countries together, such as the United Nations with economic cooperation plans with meaningful resolutions and workable technologies.

My repeated requests for fossil fuel conservation through the use of new technology and reduction of pollution emissions were ignored by the United States government for decades. The burdens, costs and urgency for conversion to a new energy source now become overwhelming, while the United States government is still determined of supporting the U.S. energy companies and oil companies toward monopolizing the diminishing world fossil fuel energy supply. In 2008 the USA imported 34.2 million short tons of coal for approximately $1.9 million.

More wars can be expected, because our United States government, as usual, will claim to protect our national and foreign interests (supposedly for Western Developed Countries), as was done with the Iraq War, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran and African Countries with the loss of lives of several million people. Such stupid plans and policies are failures right from the beginning and only cause economic chaos on a global scale and for the human race. The ridiculous invocation of religion and God into these crazy war schemes does not help either, and only incite further alienation, revulsion, reprisals, terrorism, including present day torture.

The only alternative to fossil fuel and for a survivable future are my Hydrogen Energy Regeneration Processes and Systems, provided that we use this technology and remaining global resources sensibly. But this is doubtful, and remains to be seen. Unfortunately this planet has to make very large efforts to contain unacceptable greed by corporations, political hacks, hate mongers, despots, exploiters, religious fanatics, and numerous dangerous elements of all sorts who are a danger to the livelihood and existence of the human race. Hydrogen Energy Regeneration Processes cannot fall into the hands of maximum profiteers and the oil companies, because we have already experienced their outrageous greed by banks, oil companies and Enron.

CONTINUE COPENHAGEN INITIATIVES
BY: MANFRED ZYSK, M.E. – February 3, 2010
Website: www.MZ-Energy.com
The present Waxman-Markley co-authored energy legislation stipulates that Energy firms could purchase energy offsets rather than reduce their emissions for a far-off target date. The Coal Companies and Utility Companies would be given Trillions of Dollars in free pollution credits even while raising energy prices for consumers. The Cap and Trade Policies allow industries to sell and buy carbon credits with each other without having to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

My comments to the White House and the Department of Energy before the Copenhagen Conference was: According from my experience, the Energy and Utility Companies do not have the money, technology, capabilities, determination or inclination to comply with any legally binding Climate Change Agreements in Copenhagen. Any legally binding Climate Change Agreements in Copenhagen would obligate the USA government to pay heavy penalties for non-compliance of Climate Change Agreements. In order to meet the legally binding Copenhagen Agreements, the Energy and Utility Companies would have to be taken over or bought-out at a cost of approximately 3-4 Trillion Dollars. Obviously this is why the United States government would not agree to any legally binding Climate Change Agreements.

Understandably, the imposition of heavy penalties for non-compliance to the Copenhagen Accords would have been devastating to the Obama administration and for progressives in the Democratic Party who have been advocates for the Copenhagen initiatives, amid the shrill vitriol by deniers of Global Climate Change. It appears that I share the blame for some of the “USA Scuttling” of Copenhagen (COP 15) Conference, because I had expected that fast actions toward climate change and energy solutions would be incorporated into bold initiatives, but heavy penalties and non-compliance issues would have had substantial negative economic impacts upon the United States. The needed technology to bring about adequate global climate change results had not been developed and is not presently available to all countries, and still need to be resolved.

My suggestion was to proceed with my Hydrogen Energy Regeneration Systems and Research, and other energy saving products. The conversion from Fossil Fuel to Hydrogen Energy Regeneration Systems could cost approximately $2.6 Trillion for a 5 year crash program and approximately a total of $4 Trillion over a 10 year period for the USA alone, while solving the global climate change problem at the same time. Some investment payback can already occur within the first 3 years for various new energy saving products. These cost figures can be reduced substantially when other developed countries contribute in a joint effort to solve the global energy and global climate change problem. These cost figures for the conversion to my Hydrogen Energy Regeneration does not include any profits, but primarily are intended to maintain and enhance our present economic system as best as possible by providing energy and electricity at the lowest cost for all industries, businesses, homes and citizens.

In order to achieve maximum national economic benefits, I advocate the establishment of a new national energy company with low profit motives that will serve the national economic interests in direct conjunction with stringent government oversight and control for all energy and electricity generation. My primary concern is adequate federal funding to make my new Hydrogen Energy Regeneration Processes succeed with minimum economic upsets nationally and globally during the transition period from fossil fuel energy to hydrogen energy regeneration systems.

Right from the start, the Obama administration was faced with incredible debts and a complete economic meltdown of unknown proportions, with very grave consequences to the United States. In retrospect, substantial efforts have been made to avoid further economic deterioration. Approximately 30% of our defense industry can be converted into economic development without vulnerability or loss to our national security. This would amount to approximately $330 billion every year into our economy to create more new industries, new jobs, job training, schools, social security, and medical and dental care and/or reduce our national debts. More than enough weapons and military might is at our disposal, whenever real need should arise for our national defense and security. If for some reason our national security were truly threatened, then the necessary military funding and sacrifices would of course be reinstated, as necessary.

Our own national security also provides security for all other countries; particularly if all countries cooperate with common objectives, similarly like the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and United Nations. A Common, enforceable Global Non-Aggression Treaty composed of Europe, the Americas, Asia, Africa and other world countries would produce needed global economic benefits and reduce nuclear weapons, potential nuclear wars and global biological warfare threats.

Our government has funded projects like large dams and nuclear energy to generate electricity in the past. We do need to understand that fossil fuel and nuclear power (uranium) is finite, and we have little time left for converting to another energy source to supply our entire economy and nation. If and when the global fossil fuel reserves are consumed and are gone, then the oil companies and energy companies will have disappeared as well. An honest and comprehensive global energy supply assessment has already been disclosed by our leaders in government.

Plundering other countries of their remaining energy and natural resources is most distressing and destructive to our nation, and is not the answer or worth the short term gains. Hydrogen Energy Regeneration Processes cannot be handed over to these zealous exploiters and scheming profiteers. The shouting for ever larger profits and greed will stop sooner or later, and with coordinated efforts and rationalization it is possible to agree to satisfactory energy and climate change solutions for a livable environment and survivability.

HYDROGEN ENERGY REGENERATION
CAN REPLACE OIL AND FOSSIL FUEL
BY: MANFRED ZYSK, M.E. – January 13, 2010

Publication is authorized by author

Only Hydrogen Energy and Hydrogen Energy Regeneration Processes can replace Oil and Fossil Fuel. The availability of inexpensive and the abundance of Hydrogen can generate a new era for the world with numerous new products and processes which will transform our present industrial system toward an ideal future environment. When hydrogen energy and hydrogen regeneration processes and applications are fully developed, tens of millions of jobs will be created which will surpass the present auto industry and infuse great economic energy into all other industries and commerce. Low energy costs are the lifeblood of civilization and can lead toward global peace, democracy and prosperity. If hydrogen energy regeneration processes are provided at lower costs compared to fossil fuel by 60% or more to all countries, then major economic improvements occur on a global scale and would reduce or eliminate most global conflicts over energy resources. Ocean waters contain 11% hydrogen and fresh water contains 10% hydrogen. Please see website: www.MZ-Energy.com.

The present energy/fossil fuel and global climate crisis's are not surprising, and the global energy/climate crisis most likely will continue to the point of severe economic strangulation, associated with high unemployment, high food prices, much higher cost of living expenses, et cetera, unless measures are taken to circumvent such impending disasters.

It is already well known that the constant global battles and wars over natural resources, global market share and global military domination will only lead to disaster. Of utmost importance is inexpensive and abundant supply of energy and my hydrogen energy regeneration technology. Relatively cheap energy fueled the industrial revolution to its present state, but has been dominated with constant human suffering and wars.

Due to the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962, and my recall to active military duty for occupation of Cuba, I foresaw continued nuclear missile confrontations; therefore I came up with a possible solution with the design of small 2 to 6 passenger jet planes for military, commercial and private usage. Such a small jet plane with a feature of vertical take-off would have great economic benefits and simultaneously reduce and solve many global military confrontations. My experience in car body design, engineering and production including aircraft engine engineering provided me with sufficient confidence toward the feasibility for the development and production of this small jet plane. Please see 3 typical illustration of Small Jet Plane for Commercial & Defense Use in Chapter 4 on website: www.MZ-Energy.com

In 1963, I hoped that our government would not try to control the Mid-East oil, because logically it meant that we ultimately would lose our wealth and waste much fossil fuel in the process. I fully understood the ongoing political games and controls being exercised by the oil companies, auto industry, military industrial complex, the state department, our government and basically the involvement of every facet of our economy into the militarization of the United States. After the Cuban Missile Crisis, I believed that our government and military would realize the importance of this small jet plane for the military, defense and economic importance on a global scale, but our government and military were totally against this small jet plane for obvious reasons of planning world domination, and I noticed in 1962 that plans were being developed to exercise world domination through financial and economic manipulation and global financial control.

My analysis of achieving and maintaining world financial control over any length of time appeared totally absurd, but our government and military industrial complex with the utilization of the world banking system and President Johnson (our first oil president) proceeded with absolute determination with the Viet Nam war, including the drilling for oil off the Viet Nam coast. The European countries in the 1980s opposed such controls and the economic take-over of countries and formed the European Union, of which President Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher strongly opposed. Now several regional economic unions are being formed to counter our desperate global economic domination plans amid the global climate change and global fossil fuel crisis. All these wars, financial and human losses did not have to occur and could have been avoided. Our government and military has failed the American people and the world.

The supply of oil and gasoline was a major problem and had to be solved, because the US was going to run out of oil in about 1978 according to my research in 1963, and the US would have to import oil. My research of seismic and electronic sensors with computer analysis would help the exploration of oil but would not be adequate. Electronic and seismic oil exploration did not exist at that time and my research was sent to our government for funding. The oil companies obtained my research and developed my seismic and electronic exploration concept, but a new energy source was needed very soon. After a few weeks of research, I decided that hydrogen, obtained from the oceans (11%) were in adequate supply for several centuries and needed to be processed and developed. Basically, hydrogen cannot be consumed or destroyed and therefore is the ideal chemical element for regeneration.

Further research of hydrogen regeneration processes with various chemical reaction elements indicated that this little jet plane would be able to travel very long distances without refueling. Some organic chemical reaction formulas indicated prolonged regeneration capabilities and in conjunction with some inorganic formulas could provide very long term regeneration capabilities. From the mechanical and practical standpoint any hydrogen regeneration processes and systems will wear out and need to be maintained and replaced. The hydrogen regeneration processes therefore needed to be thoroughly researched and tested for durability and safety concerns. Please see website: www.MZ-Energy.com.

The next problem was the processing of large amounts of hydrogen from oceans waters. Various methods such as hydrolysis were considered in 1963, but ordinary electricity methods were energy intensive. The Hydrogen Regeneration Systems for some processes would produce excess energy and generate steam or heat to drive turbines very economically. All that is needed is the initial starting of the chemical reaction system to produce hydrogen obtained from ocean water and to operate the entire hydrogen regeneration system.

The separation (dissociation) of hydrogen and some chemical reaction elements would not necessarily require complete separation during the regeneration process and a small amount of these chemical elements could be systematically discharged into waste containers for later processing or disposal. Complete separation of chemical reaction elements are naturally the most desirable process for regeneration. The use of solar, wind and nuclear waste energy for processing the hydrogen were considered, but are not very practical, because very large amounts of hydrogen need to be produced. I believed that I found a new method to produce very large amounts of hydrogen from ocean water by utilizing my hydrogen regeneration processes at that time in 1963.

In late summer of 1963, I had sufficient confidence to build and test this little jet plane with new jet engines, but I also wanted to conduct experiments with my hydrogen regeneration processes and systems. Certified mail submittals for appropriation requests were sent to top government officials, including the defense department and federal agencies, but were met with silence or just acknowledgement of having received my disclosures by certified mail with return receipts.

All sorts of intimidation and physical threats were used to discourage me from proceeding with my research for obvious reasons for seizing control of my research by the government and corporations. In spite of many employment problems and imposed financial hardships, I researched numerous valuable products in order to obtain the necessary funds to develop hydrogen energy regeneration processes and products, but I always was met with negative results. Some of my proposed products were later produced by several companies such as Acrylic Paints containing catalytic chemical reactions which creep into the pores of numerous types of materials to form a complete bond, such as steel, wood, stone, but also have excellent adhesion properties onto smooth surfaces such as glass or painted surfaces with new protective finish coatings such as for cars and furniture with the application of what is known as “Clear Coat.” Please see website: www.MZ-Energy.com.

When catalytic chemical reactions form a complete bond by creeping into the pores of materials or smooth surfaces for weather exposure and exterior applications, rusting is reduced, paint peeling is reduced and maintenance is reduced for cars, trucks, trailers, buses, trains, bridges, boats, ships, farm equipment, construction equipment and construction machinery, et cetera. Acrylic catalytic chemical reactions reduces maintenance and painting every 5 or 10 years for houses, buildings and factories because of less weather damage and no separation of paint from the bonded surfaces of different materials. This research was completed in 1964, and none of my products involved infringements or employer proprietary products. My position as Assistant Experimental Engineer in 1960 for the assembly and production of automobile bodies included adhesives, bonding, sealing, coatings and paints, which were supplied by chemical and paint companies. The largest US paint companies were contacted, but all companies claimed to have no interest in my Acrylic Paints or Acrylic Catalytic Chemical Reaction Products, as usual. My research was extremely valuable with worldwide market potential and global economic benefits.

While I continuously advocate and work toward a better future for the USA and better global relations, little or nothing is being done. Our USA defense budget for 2010 has been estimated to cost $704 billion and some official estimates claim the US defense budget to be over $1 Trillion for 2010, but to date I have not received any consideration or funding for several energy products such as the capture and containment processes of carbon dioxide from coal electric power plants, oil refineries, chemical plants, lime plants and cement plants; or the vaporization of gasoline/oil for internal combustion engines, or for saving energy with vertical shaft lime kilns, or the vacuum chamber wall construction for building homes, buildings, factories, and for the national housing and construction industry, et cetera. Instead, our government wants to circumvent my proposed designs for carbon capture of coal electric power plants, and is considering of providing funding to some companies and corporations.

But time after time my appeal to our government and leaders to maintain rational and sane policies to avoid our own economic destruction was ignored, but instead ways and means are approved that cause our economic collapse with fraudulent housing mortgage schemes, the elimination of our own industries, including overseas manufacturing to escape domestic environmental laws and penalties, the importation of cheap, poor quality products, subverting greenhouse gas emission proposals and global climate change proposals, including the borrowing of trillions of dollars while the government is not able to make the interest payments on these huge loans. To date we, the USA, has amassed over $127 Trillion in public and private debts, and in unfunded liabilities. Our banks (banksters) have swindled the public out of Trillions of dollars, and in return have received hundreds of billions of dollars in bailout funds from our government.


Most senators and congressmen need millions of dollars every election from the corporations or face being thrown out of office if they do not comply with corporate demands. Corporations not only have complete control over our government, but our government has already become irrelevant and useless, since the corporations now make the most important legislation and laws. Present energy legislation would be giving the Utilities trillions of dollars in free pollution credits even while raising energy prices for consumers.


In spite of all this, I continuously berate our great leaders in government to fund my energy research and new products so that this country can regain its independence from foreign financial control, but to date our government is opposed to any of my concerns, and our government is still on the path of global domination. It is impossible for me to get a meaningful response for a sensible energy evaluation, or government consideration toward funding my energy projects, but without hesitation, our senators just approved a defense bill amounting to $636 Billion, and the 2010 defense appropriation bill is estimated to cost actually over $1 Trillion. I have consistently specified proprietary and intellectual property rights, and our government is enjoined from funding other parties, businesses, company entities, institutions or foreign governments of my disclosed products by any means and ways in the USA and foreign countries.


After contacting President Obama and Vice President Biden, the White House Cabinet, federal departments and agencies, and most senators and congressmen of the USA several times, and by their own actions our government has determined by not responding to my requests for funding my research of my proposed products including hydrogen energy regeneration systems and processes, then the United States government herewith abrogates any rights or technological claims thereof, including such as any national security claims. Therefore, I am seeking the necessary funding from other sources, foreign countries and governments, with appropriate offers of manufacturing and marketing rights, especially from the European Union and other Regional Economic Organizations, such as ASEAN, AU, EEA, SAARC and the Arab League, et cetera.

Enclosed is my latest correspondence with the U.S. Dept. of Energy, the U.S. President and Vice President with additional information about BlackLight Power and Dr. Mills, who have recently conducted research on hydrogen energy. This is worthwhile energy reading material.

Mr. Augustine, you state: "It doesn't appear that you have a technology of your own."

Response: Perhaps you could enlighten me as to who would possess this technology. If my disclosure submittal is not my own, then who could it possibly belong to, since I have previously requested federal R&D and development funding for Hydrogen Energy Regeneration and several of these products for over 40 years, and I have documents of previous submittals to prove it. In fact "it doesn't appear that you have the qualifications to make such an assessment," and it may indicate the usual practice of only fishing for free proprietary research data, while major funding has been awarded for many rather miniscule energy projects. I should disclose to you that I have documents showing the DOE of pumping me for more research information, but then backing out and refusing to make any valid funding commitments.

You may find the following websites of substantial interest about Hydrinos, BlackLight Power, Inc. and Dr. Randell Mills and his research on hydrogen, including the members of the board of directors of BlackLight Power, Inc. and the association of Assistant Secretary of Energy Shelley Brewer with BlackLight Power, Inc.

CHAPTER 9 – NUCLEAR ENERGY – www.MZ-Energy.com


Senator John Kerry suggested that I contact the available government agencies involved in renewable energy and environment. Because of the importance of the below listed products, on 8/19/09, I submitted product descriptions, drawings and illustrations, a synopsis of my qualifications, my resume' and letters of recommendation to the Hon. Vice President Joseph Biden, Senator John Kerry, Mr. Steven Chu (DOE), Mr. Tim Geithner and Ms. Lisa P. Jackson (EPA), including the Dept. of Commerce, Defense, Energy, Interior, Transportation, Homeland Security, Housing and Urban Development, Agriculture, and EPA for an Initial Grant Search Request for:


1. HYDROGEN ENERGY & HYDROGEN ENERGY REGENERATION
2. COAL ELECTRIC POWER PLANT – CO2 SEQUESTRATION
3. GASOLINE VAPORIZATION – INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINES
4. VACUUM CHAMBER CONCRETE WALL CONSTRUCTION
5. VERTICAL SHAFT LIME KILNS & VERTICAL CEMENT PLANTS.
6. WIND TURBINES FOR FARMS AND COMMUNITIES
7. ROAD PAVING MACHINE AND NEW MEDICAL DISCOVERY

Of the above listed government departments and agencies, only the Department of Energy responded. Surprisingly Ms. Sheri Mike at DOE only requested an abstract for submittal of my Hydrogen Energy Regeneration Systems.

I have been informed 3 times that I should also consider the DOE "competitive bidding process." If you are properly qualified, then you would know that any competitors would not be qualified because of the usual lack of experience and absence of professional personnel. Most companies and corporations are too cheap to hire professionals. Basically, our country has evolved into a system of "Planned Obsolescence," with the production of poor quality products which need to be replaced periodically at higher costs. Worse yet, we cannot even produce this worthless junk and are importing it from other countries. I have seen this too often and I can quote you dozens of instances with companies and corporations not being capable of producing quality products and not meeting contractual obligations, such as a greedy conglomerate terminating experienced professionals, then losing $55 million in profits the following year, and almost declared bankruptcy due to heavy losses. I have been accused of objecting to the "customary shortchanging practices" on major industrial plant projects in the U.S. and foreign countries which clearly posed contractual violations as well as environmental violations.

Somehow you have ignored to consider my other six (6) energy saving products. You completely ignore my disclosure of CO2 capture from coal power plants, chemical plants, refineries, and natural gas plants and my proposed process to convert the CO2 emissions into useful fertilizer. Perhaps you and the DOE are stalling so that some companies or corporations will develop new fertilizer processes with fancy slogans that amazingly were (secretly) developed some 40+ years ago? I do have statistics of present and past fertilizer production. Of major importance is my Vacuum Chamber Concrete Wall Construction Process, which can reduce large amounts of energy consumption and reduce CO2 emissions which cause major global climate change problem.

What explanations do you have for not doing your job in the national and public interest? President Barack Obama, members of the Cabinet, government departments and agencies will receive this disclosure, and you can expect that this will be made public via the internet.


Since I have extensive technical experience including proposals, contracts and the management of multiple, multi-million dollar engineering projects in the U.S. and foreign countries, I have submitted to you more than adequate information and data for DOE funding consideration, and I also have specified in sufficient detail my objectives that meet your typical abstract format. All you need to do is read it and comprehend it!! This is how the DOE conducts business?

If you are at all familiar with the existing national and global energy situation and urgency involving global climate change, then you would comprehend the importance of my disclosed products, and especially the value of my Hydrogen Energy Regeneration Systems. Our President Barack Obama and most Democrats in government are showing not just their understanding, but also the urgency of the energy crisis and the global climate crisis. My documentation discloses very much information that easily should have rattled your timbers into the realization of authenticity with the overall scope of a new energy source that would meet future global energy requirements. It is all there in plain English. You questioned authenticity - you got it. Please see: www.MZ-Energy.com – Chapter 4A, Chapter 8 and Chapter 9.

Of course I am also aware of the proposed 400 nuclear reactors which are estimated to cost several hundred billion dollars, of which the Union of Concerned Scientists strongly object for various reasons, including the funding of research for a car battery that was funded by DOE for the amount of $2 billion. Did the Department of Energy ever figure out how to acquire all the necessary lithium and platinum for Fuel Cells to supply 19 million annual new cars and truck production, and the 250 million vehicles in USA use? The world production amounted to over 70 million cars and trucks in 2008.

For your edification, I was involved in some defense projects, including the design of a manufacturing plant for the Bradley Army Tank, or the AOA (Star Wars Project) for $1 Trillion which was funded on the basis of much less data or concept. As Sr. Manufacturing Engineer for a manufacturing plant for 3,500 employees, I required additional information about the feasibility and functionality of the Star Wars Project, and it was necessary for me to request additional information from the Pentagon because the entire concept was severely flawed. After 23 years of continued R&D and defense funding and under "enhanced conditions," the Star War Project was proclaimed (somewhat) a success, but does not meet the required objectives today for originally detecting missiles 2,000 miles downrange.

For your information, the development of Hydrogen Energy Regeneration Systems is the most valuable and important innovation ever conducted, and for me to carry this important project forward to its completion to satisfy global energy needs, requires absolute determination, dedication, integrity, honesty as well as technical and scientific competence. Again, it is quite obvious, and I do not believe the Department of Energy is suitable for such initiatives, and as a result, my quoted costs will be substantially higher than what I quoted before, because I will not be placed in untenable situations that would cause failure due to inadequate funding at the hands of the government.

The other concern is the reluctance and resistance of the public utilities, energy industry, national industries and commerce of refusing to comply with federal legislation to meet the approved and necessary global climate change agreements. Such delays would impose severe measures to demand compliance or outright buyouts of many public utility companies and energy companies at a cost of perhaps $3 to $4 Trillion.

Security, sabotage, interferences and safety are a common occurrence and require more oversight and are of major concerns which unfortunately require substantial additional funding. President Barack Obama can verify to being sabotaged and persecuted for his efforts to salvage the USA economy from collapse of the "wacky and crazy" policies of the George W. Bush administration, and for fulfilling his duties and obligations, President Barack Obama is called a "Socialist, Communist, Nazi and the Devil" by right-wing fanatics in the Senate, Congress and by some people. BlackLight Power, Inc. has 3 former CIA agents on its payroll, and what are the reasons for their employment?

It is herewith understood that all submitted research data is legally proprietary and contains intellectual property rights, including my research data on my website: www.MZ-Energy.com. The U.S. Government, Departments and Agencies are specifically enjoined (forbidden) and will refrain from conducting research, including the funding of any such programs now and in the future with any business entities domestically or foreign countries. By the way, a $636 billion military spending bill for fiscal 2010 was approved by the senate on 10/6/2009.

Therefore, I am submitting a copy of this response to President Barack Obama, Vice President Joseph Biden and the federal departments and agencies. Of course this does not exclude me from making the above contents public, including the disclosure of our government functions on the internet, and in the public interest.

ORIGIN OF HYDROGEN ENERGY REGENERATION RESEARCH
As previously disclosed on my website: www.MZ-Energy.com, in 1962 I wanted to build a small jet plane somewhat similar in design of a car. In 1963, I researched how to locate oil fields with sophisticated electronic sensors and electronic seismic equipment, because large quantities of oil would be needed for commercial usage. I found that world oil deposits were not adequate and a new energy source was needed. After extensive research, I realized that the only energy source to replace oil would be hydrogen obtained from the oceans containing 11% hydrogen. Hydrogen cannot be consumed, but can produce high chemical reactions with other chemicals and elements.

The processing and marketing of hydrogen energy from ocean water to satisfy public demand would be a major challenge. The hydrogen and any of the chemical reaction elements needed to be regenerated, in an association and dissociation process in a continuous closed loop operating process with other readily available chemical elements and components. The ultimate energy process would be the continuous regeneration and not requiring refilling or replacing the chemical components for 6 months or for 12+ months. Some continuous hydrogen energy regeneration processes were considered whereby chemical elements consisting of organic and inorganic elements could be endlessly regenerated without replenishing or refilling the chemical elements and components. No doubt, these hydrogen processes required much research, development and capital in 1963.

Many hydrogen reaction formulas were much too powerful for my applications, and I was considering power outputs within the range of approximately 12 to 28 times the energy of gasoline depending upon applications. While some low energy chemical reaction formulas required larger volumes and quantities, the more powerful chemical reaction formulas can be adjusted so that less amounts of chemical component volume and quantities are used, and at the same time it will reduce the volume and quantities of chemical elements to be regenerated, but achieve maximum energy and power output for traveling long distances and for much longer time-spans. Depending on application, the hydrogen regeneration energy formulas vary and can consist of organic and inorganic chemical elements for maximizing regeneration capabilities of continuous, and of facilitating reprocessing quantities. It was necessary to do the research and development, and that required a substantial amount of money. The U.S. government was the only logical source to support my research. Since the Lyndon Johnson Administration, I submitted a disclosure within every 7 years in order to maintain established confidentiality by government and presidential directives.

In 1964, I submitted my little jet plane for federal funding to senate and congressional committee chairman and the Department of Defense for defense and commercial applications. From then on I was experiencing severe employment and financial problems, including many physical as well as death threats. Therefore I decided to concentrate on designing other worthwhile products in hope to acquire enough money so that I could continue my research on hydrogen and for this little jet plane in the near future. I offered to give companies several new products with exclusive patent rights just to obtain employment, but nothing worked and I was "blackballed" wherever I went, and then I became a consultant.

Fast forward into the 1980's. Zapata Oil Company, owned by George Bush Sr. drilled horizontally into the Naval Oil Reserves in Los Angeles and stole large amounts of oil from the government, but not a single person went to prison. The oil company then drilled horizontally wells from the Kuwait side into the Iraqi oil fields. Saddam Hussein warned Kuwait to remove the drilling rigs, but the warning was ignored. Therefore Saddam Hussein invaded Kuwait.

About the same time, I received a copy (about 90 pages) of a plan involving a group of ultra conservative Christian leaders with a listing of various multi-millionaires from Dallas, which included to my recollection George W. Bush. This group had acquired the rights to "Cold Fusion" and proclaimed to be able to control the future energy supply for the world, and with the religious right extremists would be able to Christianize the Mid-East and monopolize the world by the year 2000. After about 1 year, I decided that I could not have in my possession such a crazy plan, because this plan seemed at the time just total madness. When "Cold Fusion" fizzled, the plan was hatched to take over the Iraqi oil fields by Rumsfeld and George W. Bush and to turn the supposedly $17 Trillion of Iraqi oil deposits by raising oil prices, into a windfall of $77 Trillion. By controlling the remaining Arab oil and Iran oil, this group would then control very much the world economy. With the 9/11 disaster, George W. Bush was able to convince the senate and congress with the invasion of Iraq, and he even promised to withdraw from Iraq within 100 days after the invasion.

On January 11, 2010, the Department of Energy made numerous grants from the stimulus law aimed at jump-starting research to Daimler, Cummins, Inc., Navistar, Chrysler, Ford, General Motors, Delphi Automotive Systems and Robert Bosch to develop smaller, more efficient, and cleaner diesel engines, and to improve truck-and-trailer aerodynamics. The Daimler grant is shared with partners Oregon State University and BAE Systems. Our government is funding
these grants, and are mostly for research, engineering and development for the automotive industry for a 5-year program with additional future funding for an estimated 6,000 jobs.

General Motors and Chrysler still depend on government help. Our Oregon Governor, Senators and Congressman exclaimed “This is exactly the kind of booster shot we need for our economy.” My request for funding my Hydrogen Energy Regeneration Projects on December 17, 2008 to our President Obama, Senators and Congressmen were ignored, including my proposal for new innovation such as my (gasoline/oil) vaporization process for maximizing fuel economy, and complete US built cars with common universal interchangeable quality car body parts for General Motors, Ford and Chrysler to reduce “planned obsolescence” so that our auto industry would have a chance to survive against lower cost imported cars. A few meaningless form letters were received from senators and congressmen, but no direct positive responses. Our entire government is for sale to foreign corporations.

US Department of Energy Selects NRG for Post-Combustion Carbon Capture Demonstration Project in Texas


PRINCETON, N.J., Mar 09, 2010 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- NRG Energy, Inc. has been selected by the United States Department of Energy (DOE) to receive up to $154 million, including funding from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, to build a post-combustion carbon capture demonstration unit at NRG's WA Parish plant southwest of Houston. The proposed project was submitted under the Clean Coal Power Initiative Program (CCPI), a cost-shared collaboration between the federal government and private industry to demonstrate low-emission carbon capture and storage technologies in advanced coal-based, power generation. The goal of CCPI is to accelerate the readiness of advanced coal technologies for commercial deployment, ensuring that the United States has clean, reliable, and affordable electricity and power.

"The DOE recognizes the need to put a high priority on funding clean coal projects in order to substantially reduce the carbon intensity of existing fossil fueled electricity production," said David Crane, President and CEO of NRG Energy. "Development and deployment of these carbon capture technologies at scale, not only in the United States but also worldwide as well, is essential if we are to meet successfully the challenge of global climate change. We're excited about working with the DOE on this important project."

Scheduled to begin operating in 2013, NRG's carbon capture demonstration project at WA Parish will be among the first of its kind. It will use Fluor Corporation's advanced Econamine FG Plussm technology to process flue gas from the plant equal in quantity to that of a 60 megawatt unit. It will be designed to capture 90% of incoming CO2, or approximately 400,000 metric tons of CO2 annually--a level that can further advance the technology's viability on a larger scale. Once captured, the CO2 will be compressed and used in enhanced oilfield recovery operations.

Carbon capture technology is part of NRG's clean energy portfolio that includes nuclear, onshore wind, offshore wind and solar that will help the Company meet future energy production and environmental sustainability goals.

About NRG
NRG Energy, Inc., a Fortune 500 company and member of the S&P 500, owns and operates one of the country's largest and most diverse power generation portfolios. Headquartered in Princeton, NJ, the Company's power plants provide more than 24,000 megawatts of generation capacity--enough to supply more than 20 million homes.

HYDROGEN ENERGY RESEARCH
By: Manfred Zysk, M.E. November 22, 2009

CONTAINS PROPRIETARY RESEARCH AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS - PUBLICATION IS AUTHORIZED BY AUTHOR

In previous disclosed research many years ago, I described certain functions involving hydrogen atoms. These functions included the contraction of the orbit of the electron around the proton (nucleus), whereby the electron is circling the proton held in place by a magnetic field that is surrounding the proton. The orbital, polar and spherical contraction of the electron onto the existing magnetic field of the proton causes friction and generates heat energy. The greater the contraction and compression force to reduce and compress the orbit of the electron, the more friction and energy is produced, because the magnetic field is resisting contact with the proton.

The contraction and compression of the orbit of the electron around the proton produces heat and a miniscule residue which trails the revolving electron, and can be observed by a spectrograph. Of course as the contraction and compression of the orbit of and upon the electron is increased, the miniscule residue becomes more pronounced and visible on a spectrograph.

The contraction and compression of the orbit of the electron has an "exited effect" upon the proton, which at the same time corresponds with increased magnetic resistance force and generates heat energy. Some of the miniscule residue comes from the "exited" proton, and can be observed by a spectrograph as trailing behind the orbiting electron in the form of traces of heat.

Various chemical substances and chemical elements react with hydrogen atoms. Some radical and highly corrosive chemical elements produce very violent explosive force and energy, and can generate nuclear power as has been demonstrated. There is no need to go into the physics of nuclear power theory and application at this point, because a safe and applicable energy source is needed to replace diminishing fossil fuel and oil.

Therefore, when a measured amount of hydrogen atoms, oxygen and reactive chemical elements are combined in a closed and sealed container, it is possible to generate a calculated contraction and compression of the orbit of electrons onto the protons. By stabilizing the chemical reaction (pressure) in a closed container by maintaining the contracted and compressed orbit of electrons, it is then possible to generate heat and energy for extended periods of time, depending upon the formula of chemical elements. The duration of sustained energy output is difficult to estimate and would require substantial research, practical development, product manufacturing and product safety before making any valid claims of energy functionality and efficiencies. Regardless, I have considered the use of a continuous closed loop hydrogen regeneration process and system if and when necessary depending upon application and products. For additional information, please see my website: www.MZ-Energy.com.

With the use of a closed loop hydrogen regeneration system, whereby all chemical components and chemical elements are regenerated in an association and dissociation process, this is a process that is most suitable for several applications. It is then possible to produce heat and energy for a very long time without refilling or substituting these chemical elements. All mechanical products or mechanical systems require maintenance, replacement, practicality including product safety, and was my primary concern of my hydrogen research in 1963. If hydrogen were readily available and inexpensive, then several hundred new mechanical/ chemical processes and products could be developed in the future. My position is never to make any claims or statements that cannot be substantiated, unless proven by actual performance and product reliability. But by going through logical thought, explanations and conclusive research, it is possible to obtain the expected results for making claims to proprietary research and intellectual property rights, just like those for patent claims and patent rights. My computer is being hacked continuously; therefore I am releasing my research worldwide to the news media and the public via the internet. Every few weeks I proofread my research again and reinstate any missing or changed content and what appear to be typographical errors.


COMMENTS ABOUT BLACKLIGHT POWER
A comment about BlackLight Power and their claims of producing a new form of hydrogen called hydrinos. Claims are made of forming a new type of hydrogen which enters into new forms of lower-energy states, and in Dr. Mill's theory he predicts a transition to a lower electron energy level in the hydrogen atom, which under certain conditions can release substantial quantities of heat, positioned between chemical combustion and nuclear power – without the problems of nuclear power.

Dr. Mills claims the outer shell of the electron is being peeled of several layers like that of an onion to produce the hydrino into lower states of matter. Dr. Mills does not seem to realize that any onions, vegetables and fruit can be peeled to the core, and the onions, vegetables and fruit regardless remain onions, vegetables and fruit in chemical substance no matter what is done to them, unless they are being processed with other chemical components or elements into entirely different substances of matter such as refining oil to obtain jet fuel, plastics or chemicals. Obviously Dr. Mills and BlackLight Power have not achieved or developed such substances of matter to date.

Dr. Mills further claims his processes involve the consumption of hydrogen atoms and the need to replenish the supply of hydrogen, and the process of hydrino consumption produces a residue which needs to be disposed of. The creation of "hydrinos" including new forms of lower-energy states is herewith questionable and exhibits a form of semantics involving chemical reaction processes and practical physics. Unfortunately, many scientists have commented of unreliable and scattered assumptions of research results not being conclusive in content or application.

A news release on August 12, 2009, Dr. Mills stated: "BlackLight says it developed a solid fuel that efficiently liberates hydrinos and then requires very little energy (in the form of heat) to reverse the chemical product back into the initial solid fuel. The system is nearly closed-loop, requiring only the replacement of hydrogen consumed when forming hydrinos."

Back in 1998, Dr. Mills promised of just being a few months away from developing and completing workable test models and power plants, but to date I have not seen a news release of such an operating unit or electric power plant by BlackLight Power. Nothing has been learned from the "COLD FUSION" farce of which Dr. Mills had also been an advocate.

The latest effort is a Non-Exclusive License Agreement with GEOENERGIE SpA to use the BlackLight Process and certain BlackLight energy technology for the production or thermal or electric power in Italy. Further comments do not appear to be necessary, because the News Release is self explanatory.

Disclosure and research contains proprietary intellectual and property rights.

President Barack Obama, Cabinet Members, White House Staff and members of the Senate and Congress are asked to review and respond to my noteworthy research proposal, and I kindly request an appropriate response within a reasonable time. If you require any further information, please do not hesitate to contact me.


President Barack Obama and the Democratic Party members in the Senate and Congress are asked to provide the necessary research funds to numerous universities for this great medical discovery by steering this medical science project to its successful completion. This research could have been conducted about 18-19 years ago, but the national emphasis was concentrated primarily on global military operations, and therefore it was pointless up to now to release this medical discovery. Even today, the Republican Party remains anti-science, has become very Anti-American by opposing many new scientific research projects such as global climate change, and has destroyed the economy of the United States by plundering our nations' wealth. Government research grants and science funding would provide many jobs for progressive universities and also provide many opportunities for future doctors throughout the medical profession. This is truly significant and will provide great health benefits in the future. Please respond in three (3) weeks, or by April 10, 2009. My research disclosure was made to the White House and approximately 26 Senators and 42 Congressmen in Washington, D.C. To date I have not received a single response from the United States Government.


It is now a reality to conduct body cell research for regenerating and replacement of body cells for curing most illnesses, cancers and the reduction of the aging process with the use of computers and supercomputers. The structure and composition of body cells vary greatly and is as complex as DNA, and certain negative and harmful molecules (due to age old hereditary chromosome interbreeding) can be isolated and stripped from the complex cells, DNA and chromosomes, and enhanced cell regeneration substances, and positive characteristics can be inserted into the structure of body cells and its numerous components, and by modifying the cell genome correspondingly by splicing enhanced and positive characteristics into the DNA and chromosomes.


This research process involves the study of body cells of young and small children, teenagers, young adults, middle age adults and senior persons in various stages of life. Specifically young children into their growing years, young adults growing into maturity, mature adults, adults at the point of the beginning of the body cell aging process, mid-life adults when the entire body cells are in the aging process, and the final stage in life when the replacement of new body cells are entering a decline, and the cell renewal/replacement process is slowing down, or the body has stopped the replication of cells, then these positive differences in DNA composition aspects can be analyzed, separated and spliced into the DNA and chromosomes. The negative differences in the DNA and chromosome composition can be stripped and removed from the DNA and chromosomes.


When a complete computer analysis is made of the body cell structure and cell growth structure during the specific stages of life, and aging, then the molecule composition differences between young cell growth, mature cell growth, the onset of cell deterioration, the limit of body cell growth and the reduction of body cell growth development, then, when comparing these variable changes in body cells, will then provide information and data for the modification of the cell structure, DNA and chromosomes, and for the development of most physical cures such as cancer, malaria, tuberculosis, aids and venereal diseases, including of reducing the aging process, et cetera. The difference in molecule composition of body cell function from the youth age to old age can be observed, and involves the aging or slowing down of all body cell and organ functions which then affect all remaining body cells and tissue degeneration.


Therefore when the DNA and chromosome genome structure is modified by stripping the negative hereditary molecules and the negative genetic and aging molecules and by the careful replacement by splicing with regenerating molecule code aspects into the cell components of the DNA and chromosomes, then the most advanced and beneficial medical science achievements will be obtained. Since the entire DNA structure has now been decoded, it is now possible to continue to resolve the age old problems of numerous genetic afflictions and diseases that have haunted the human race for millennia. Hereditary genetic chromosome abnormalities can be removed and replaced with normal chromosomes in young children and young adults, so that their offspring and future generations are not afflicted with hereditary abnormalities.


To better understand the body cell biology, I recommend the useful website of Wikipedia and some related websites on Body Cell Biology, Body Cell Structure, the intricacies of cell Functions and Cell Evolution, Cell Culture, Cell Type, Cellular Components, Cytorrhysis, Cytotoxicity, Stem Cells, Chromosomes and Syncytium. The more people become knowledgeable about this great store of knowledge, the faster progress and benefits are produced for the health of humanity, and this is one of my contributions from outside the medical profession. This new medical research involves the DNA and Chromosomes of all body organs and glands including the entire nerve system of the brain. Therefore this medical research is far beyond the financial capabilities of companies and corporations, and all research should be conducted at many national and global medical universities to provide the most effective scientific results.


The research with supercomputers would include not only the replacement of body cells and body tissue, but also internal organ cell replacement in order to maximize the healing process, speedy recovery, to maintain extended physical wellbeing and to slow the aging process. The following common human ailments that would be affected or cured by cell regeneration and restoration are listed as Cancer, Breast Cancer, Stomach Cancer, Bone Cancer, Colon Cancer, Lung Cancer, Prostate Cancer and Prostate Inflammation, Lymphoma, Lymphocytosis, AIDS, Venereal Diseases, Liver Complications/Liver Degeneration, Tuberculosis, Malaria, Sickle Cell Anemia, Heart Attacks, Strokes, Aneurisms, Arthritis, Muscle Injuries, Healing of Broken Bones, Healing of Spine Injuries, Healing from Organ Operations in Hospitals, Healing from Lacerations and External Injuries, Burns, Infections, Pneumonia, Brain Cell Replacement, Hair Growth and Hair Pigment Regeneration, Skin Problems, improving Eyesight and Hearing due to aging, et cetera.


Of course many cases are so severe and beyond any treatment of cell regeneration, and that has to be expected, because there are limits to everything. Obviously, such medical research and development is truly revolutionary and could utilize several thousand of medical researchers and doctors. The following is a short but condensed explanation of the complex body cell structure, and their functions with insights into the removal of harmful genetic material, and the replacement with the rejuvenating aspects of new growth molecules, as well as the disposal and elimination process of used material or waste from human body cells.


Every cell possesses DNA and chromosomes, and hereditary material in genes, and is mostly self-contained and self maintained by absorbing nutrients, to convert these nutrients into energy and to reproduce cells. Every cell contains its own intrinsic code for complete cell reproduction and contains reproduction substances for cell division, enzymes and proteins that are coded by DNA genes, metabolism for absorbing nutrients for the building of cell components, the converting of energy, the ability of extracting chemical energy, and responding to internal and external stimuli. Plasma membrane envelopes each cell which regulates the substances that are absorbed and discharged with electric impulses and contain a variety of protein molecules which have the capability to filter different molecules and transport these substances into the cell, as well as to discharge used/or waste substances and waste cell material. The exterior of the cell membrane contains receptor proteins which attract and transport external molecules and hormones into the cell for processing.


The cell also contains a cytoskeleton composed of a substance that arranges and positions various sub-cellular components within the cell, feeds the external molecules to the sub-cellular components which grow until cell division takes place and the separation of daughter cells. The eukaryotic cytoskeleton consists of microfilaments, microtubules and intermediate filaments that contain proteins for controlling the cell structure by directing, aligning and bundling the filaments.


Inside the cell is a gel-type substance (cytoplasm), which separates and surrounds all sub-cellular components and contains thousands of tiny, miniscule fibers, called organelles. The cytoplasm is the substance that provides for chemical reactions for the growth, expansion and replication of organelles and sub-organisms.


Ordinary cells are Prokaryote cells or Eukaryotic cells can contain over a dozen components. One of these components contains a nucleus and nucleolus which contains the cell genome (DNA) and chromosomes with histone proteins. The cell nucleus has a double membrane and protects the DNA and RNA from various molecules and substances or from other cell processing functions. During the processing function, the DNA is transformed into a special RNA and released out of the nucleus. The cell nucleus contains all DNA codes, hereditary gene material, and ribonucleic acid (RNA), including the replication process. The nucleus controls all cell functions and cell structure. Genetic material is classified as deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA). Biological information in an organism is encoded in its DNA or RNA sequence. Most organisms use DNA for the genetic code for long-term information storage, but viruses have RNA as their genetic material for information transport and for enzymatic functions. Eukaryotic genetic material is divided into different, linear molecules called chromosomes inside the nucleolus of the nucleus.


A human cell has genetic material stored in the nucleus (nuclear genome) as well as the mitochondria (mitochondrial genome). Genes provide instructions for making proteins. The nuclear genome is divided into 23 pairs of linear DNA molecules called chromosomes. The mitochondria produce enough ATP energy to supply the entire cell functions with energy. The mitochondrial genome is located apart from the nucleus and is substantially smaller in size. The RNA (tRNA) molecules add amino acids towards the process of cell growth replication and cell division. Chromosome abnormalities are usually in the structure of the chromosomes or in the number of chromosomes and can result in Down’s syndrome, et cetera.


The Golgi apparatus primary function is to process cell synthesized macromolecules of proteins and lipids for secretion.


Lysosomes contain digestive enzymes and digest excess and worn-out organelles, food particles including viruses and bacteria that were not filtered out by the cytoskeleton. Peroxisomes contain enzymes which remove or neutralize any toxic peroxides within the cell. Centrosomes produce microtubules and transport the microtubules through the rough endoplasmic reticulum and contain 2 centrioles, which split and divide during cell division. Vacuoles store food, water and waste.


Cell metabolism involves the process of breaking down complex molecules to produce energy for the cell and then to apply the energy to construct new complex molecules for performing various biological functions. Every cell contains complete replication and duplication information of the cell genome and DNA before cell division.


Harmful or foreign genetic material in the form of DNA are routinely inserted into the body cells such as from certain viruses and molecules that are transmitted through oxygen, blood or through the enzymes that have been digested from food, and can be significant, but most are filtered out by the cytoskeleton. These foreign genetic materials can contribute to slow the performance of glands and organs, and reduce the function of various glands and organs. Pesticides, herbicides, chemicals, food additives and food preservatives are some of the contributors to damage the body cells from prolonged exposure, and toxicity can cause immune problems, premature organ failures and can become cancerous due to immune deficiencies, et cetera.


Blood is created in the bone marrow and red blood cells are created by hematopoietic stem cells. In children most bones produce blood, but in adults only certain bones produce blood. Blood has many different types of cells and become fully mature in different places throughout the body, including the spleen and the lymph system. All blood cells come from the same common stem cell and can be adapted into any blood cell. So, as the bone marrow produces stem cells and the stem cells develop blood cells which then pass through the porous bones and enter the bloodstream.


Red blood cells last approximately 120 days in the bloodstream and white blood cells can last from a few days to years. The body has a unique system to produce new red blood cells and when oxygen levels become low when old cells have been disposed, and then the kidneys produce a hormone which stimulates the stem cells in the bone marrow and signals the production of red blood cells. This is very much the same as when the body is burning calories and the body needs more nourishment in the form of food, or when various organs or glands initiate a craving for certain food substances and for certain food minerals.


The intricate cell components, organelles and molecules can be modified by increasing certain process operations and/or to slow down desirable process operations, including the function of the cell structure and their components, and by modifying the DNA and RNA while enhancing other molecular functions, as well as by stripping any undesirable genetic aspects from the coding of DNA genes for replacement with positive aspects. This would enhance the function of immobilizing and destroying any viruses and cancerous microbes.


I specifically want to address Malaria, TB, Venereal Diseases, Aids and Polio infected blood cells as an example, because these need to be treated at the point that produces and processes the nourishment and protein/oxygen supply to these parasites. It is then obvious that the bone marrow and origin of the blood cell production point is the location where the nourishment and protein supply to the parasites is the central location for medical treatment to starve and destroy these parasites wherever they may be located within the body.


Malaria parasites alone infect more than 350 million people each year, and the annual death rate is more than 1 million in Africa among women and children. Malaria is most prolific in Africa, Asia and South America. The Malaria parasites invade the red blood cells, where they feed on red blood cells. The bone marrow produces corpuscles and hemoglobin containing iron-rich protein and oxygen. Malaria parasites are protozoa organisms and have become highly resistant to drugs. Experiments in combining quinine with chloroquine to produce T3.5 have potent anti-malaria abilities, but actual research on humans is not being conducted due to the lack of adequate funding according to research by the Portland Veterans Affairs Medical Center and an article in the journal Nature.


This can also be done by directing certain elements of anti-virus substances to the various organs and glands for filtering, processing and by directing these antibody elements and substances directly to the infected cells. In the case of various tissue and organ cancers such as breast cancer, TB, Malaria, Polio, Venereal Diseases and Aids, when successful remission of the virus proliferation occurs, it is necessary to allow for the natural body process to dispose of the virus waste, and/or by stimulating the cell function to dispel the virus waste, including the damaged cell waste, instead of performing an operation or to perform harmful laser surgery. Unfortunately Laser Surgery and Chemotherapy can leave infected and burned cancer body cells in the infected cancer location and the large amount of cancer waste from laser treatments does not have an adequate way to dispose of these wastes. This can result in internal bleeding and further problems. Besides this is extremely stressful on the body immune system and can cause many other physical complications.


Similarly this applies to the various types of Cancers, TB, Malaria, Polio, Venereal Diseases and Aids that invade the organs and tissue of the body. During the processing and production of body cells, additional antibody substances can be injected into the point of origin of cell production, and by splicing enhanced aspects into the DNA and chromosomes to provide the necessary resistance to the virus or cancer. Also, antibody substances should be injected directly into the infected organs, glands and tissue, so that the infected cells or organs receive a direct antibody dosage.


While my disclosure may appear to be a somewhat simple process, but it is far more difficult and complex, and requires complete cell research with precise magnification of chromosomes and molecules with direct linkage to supercomputers to conduct complete automated computer generated research results of every gland and organ in the human body in all age groups. These medical research trials of chromosomes and DNA can be programmed and directly linked with computers or supercomputers. The computer programs can conduct complete genetic chromosome research of stripping and splicing the mitochondria (mitochondrial genome) and body cell components. These computer generated research programs can function similar to robots on automated conveyor production lines in automotive assembly plants by using Nano technology.


This will revolutionize the medical profession and eliminate many harmful and damaging drugs. As a result and additional benefit, much better and useful drugs will be developed, including in the mental health area by studying chromosome abnormalities and mineral deficiencies. Many persons with mental disabilities can receive DNA, chromosome, and brain cell modification treatments to become productive and potentially or nearly normal, functioning persons. Without a doubt, this will revolutionize the existing medical profession and improved health care for the next generations. Most likely many thousands of doctors and medical students would be interested to study and treat patients for the above mentioned diseases and illnesses at universities and in private practice.


Basically, the same research can be done for numerous types of vegetation such as vegetables, crops, berries, fruit, plants and trees. An example is corn. The cellular DNA and genome of corn could be modified to produce shorter but stronger plant stems and produce more nutritious, larger and more ears of corn with a possibility of less nutrient and mineral soil depletion. The nutrient values can be increased for most foods and vegetables. My research and description is very brief, but this can open the doors for extensive research projects for many universities. Hopefully the United States Universities can take the lead in this valuable research.


When fully implemented, the above described Body Cell Regeneration Process can be considered one of the greatest human achievements ever conducted. The most valuable research ever conducted would be the development and production of abundant new global energy. My research of Hydrogen Energy and Hydrogen Energy Regeneration for most applications can replace depleting fossil fuel. The oceans contain 11% hydrogen, and with the combination of a hydrogen energy regeneration process, the world population would have sufficient energy supplies for several centuries. I have requested federal funding for fossil fuel regeneration and other noteworthy energy projects for many years, without success. For more details please see my website: www.MZ-Energy.com. Again, I kindly request an appropriate response from the White House, and the Senate and Congress as soon as possible. I would need direct federal appropriations, and federal agencies have a habit to deliberately cause delays, complicate or generate expensive bureaucratic procedures. Thank you.

WebMD Health News - $1000 Personal Genome Coming: Are We Ready? – April 29, 2010
Some companies now offer gene sequencing and it costs less than $10,000 to learn your own personal genome, but soon may cost no more than $1,000. Whole genome sequencing of individuals will reveal any vulnerabilities and potential risks toward a particular disease and possibilities during the later stages in life. The average person, family and relatives have about 100 heretic and genetic risks.


Almost all heredity and genetic risks can be eliminated through my proposed Body Cell Regeneration Process, including some drugs and changes in environment and life style, such as stress, food diet, preservatives and exposure to harmful chemicals. It should be remembered that with age, a person’s metabolism changes and any mental and physical environments have an effect on the health and lifespan. Hopefully, this new health care system, including complete dental care can be implemented in the near future for the entire public nationwide under the new health care system. Preventive medicine and healthy environments produce a desirable, productive and vibrant society. This would be a great benefit to the overall health and society of this nation and globally.


RESEARCHERS REPORT ARTIFICIALLY CREATED CELL
GENETICS BREAKTHROUGH – LOS ANGELES MAY 21, 2010

Researchers at J. Craig Venter Institute in Rockville, Md. announced Thursday that they had inserted DNA synthesized in a laboratory into the nucleus of a living cell that had been stripped of its own DNA, obtaining a functioning semi-synthetic microorganism.


The artificially created cell – a bacterium- did not have any unusually characteristics, because the inserted DNA was a chemical copy of an existing genome. But the feat showed that synthesizing a genome and having it control a cell can be done, paving the way for the creation of microbes with specialized properties that could be of great value to industry.


Geneticist Paul Keim of Northern Arizona University stated: “It points toward a future in genetic engineering where, instead of doing single gene-engineering events, we will have the ability to do very complex genetic engineering feats that will involve the combination of many genes and many complex biological functions. Some environmental groups warned against unforeseen consequences and to begin regulating synthetic biology experiments. The Canadian ETC Group: “The government and society in general are not ready for self-replicating artificial life forms. There has not been adequate monitoring of this while it was being developed. It’s being borne into this environment where there is no real regulation and no understanding of it.”


My comment: Already we see the dark side of monstrous science approaching from exploitive forces, corporations and industry. Any and all genetic and DNA research should only be conducted under strict regulations and controls by civilian oversight, including by government agencies only. All genetic and DNA research obviously should only be conducted to improve health and to combat health ailments. May 27, 2010

We had witness the murder of a great leader in Libia been assassinated,, by beasts who claim to be freedom fighters ,they sodomize the seventy year old men in front of others. Black news . I am so ashamed in front of the Arabs Muslims ,to the extreme ,I have no words to describe this hideous crime perpetrate by Obama and Hillary Clinton at the face of human rights watchers I can not use the America name with pride any longer.
