CONVERT HUMAN FAT INTO ELECTRICITY. Simply Use a Bicycle to Drive an Automobile Alternator with a Belt... Store Electricity in a Car Battery... Zero Pollution!

Bicycle power generator. HSU CCAT

What if we installed electric power generators on every exercise bicycle nationwide... We could replace coal burning power plants and help reverse global warming/climate change. These bicycles let a person spin an automobile alternator using pedal power. Built by CCAT at Humboldt State University

http://www.appropedia.org/CCAT_human_energy_converter

What if EVERY health club had these? What if Rowing Machines, Treadmills, Weight Lifting Universal Gyms and Stair Steppers had Generators? Imagine Pumping Iron and When the Weights Move Down they Spin an Alternator... We Have the Technology... 

There are Thousands of Health Clubs That COULD BE Generating Electricity but DO NOT... I Emailed PELOTON Exercise Bicycle Company but they Ignored Me,,,

The coal war: the battle to close Germany's lignite mines... https://www.euronews.com/2021/10/22/the-coal-war-the-battle-to-close-germany-s-lignite-mines

From blockages to weekly protests, environmental campaigners in Germany are angry at the continued extraction of coal. Euronews' Hans von der Brelie heads to one of the world’s largest opencast pits, Garzweiler II, to witness for himself the battle to close the country's lignite mines.

I arrive at sunrise, overwhelmed by the beauty of the industrial landscape, which stretches as far as the eye can see. An abstract pattern of earth and lignite layers bathed in the early morning light.

But it’s a deadly beauty: if all those hundreds of millions of tonnes of coal actually do get excavated and burnt, Germany can say goodbye to its climate targets. In recent years the country has started waking up to what climate catastrophe might actually look like: blisteringly hot summers and apocalyptic rainfall that has the ability to sweep both towns and lives away.

German climate activists call for faster exit from coal production... https://www.euronews.com/green/2021/10/22/german-climate-activists-call-for-faster-exit-from-coal-production

Ahead of the international climate change conference COP26 in Glasgow, German climate activists have been pressuring Berlin to exit coal earlier than scheduled.

At the Garzweiler opencast lignite pit, they took things a step further, blocking the movement of giant bucketwheel excavators.

Also at a nearby forest, they built tree houses to try to stop the expansion of the pit.

Germany portrays itself as a climate leader. But it’s still razing villages for coal mines... https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2021/10/23/germany-coal-climate-cop26/

LÜTZERATH, Germany — The yawning black-brown scar in the earth that is Germany’s Garzweiler coal mine has already swallowed more than a dozen villages.Centuries-old churches and family homes have been razed and the land they were built on torn away. Farmland has disappeared, graveyards have been emptied.

“All destroyed for coal,” said Eckhardt Heukamp, surveying the vast pit that drops away from the edge of his fields, 20 miles west of Cologne.

Hundreds of anti-coal campaigners protest at German mine... 

https://apnews.com/article/europe-business-climate-environment-germany-14acb53ad43288f78ea5440a34f70656

LUETZERATH, Germany (AP) — Hundreds of anti-coal activists staged protesters in and around a mine in western Germany on Saturday, demonstrating against the continued extraction and use of fossil fuels in Europe’s biggest economy.

Environmental groups oppose the German government’s decision to allow the mining and burning of coal in the country until 2038, a deadline the activists say is too late to effectively tackle climate change.

Activists, dressed in colored overalls and braving wind and rain, were also protesting the planned destruction of several villages to make way for the expansion of the Garzweiler strip mine, west of Cologne.

MADE IN AMERICA GOODS Are Not Floating in a Boat Off the Coast of California. REFUSE to Buy Chinese Junk!

I have an Online Store Called Zazzle/Gregvan That Sells Merchandise Made in Fremont, California and Reno, Nevada...  My Original Artwork is Printed on T-Shirts, Buttons, Stickers etc etc etc - I Also Sell a LOT of Political Slogans... Embroidered on Hats or Printed on Bumper Stickers! All My Royalties Donated to Charity!

If you want a Custom Design Printed on a Product... EMAIL ME... and If It Doesn't Violate Copyright, I'll Do It! gregvan(at)yahoo(dot)com...

Here is an Art Show of My Original Designs...

Including Peace Signs!

and even More Peace Signs!

SAVE MONEY by NOT BUYING CHINESE JUNK! Thrift Store Treasures are "What's Happenin'" Now!

I See in the News That There is Trouble Unloading Cargo Ships from Overseas... Well, SO Freaking WHAT? 

I Already Have Everything I Want... The Secret Trick is NOT Wanting Much! That Way It's Easy to Get Everything I Want.

http://www.eurekarescuemission.org/Thrift_Store/Thrift_Shop.html Link to The Eureka Rescue Mission Thrift Shop on Highway 101 in Eureka, CA... I Bet with a Little Research You Could find a Similar Store in Your Town! Goodwill, Saint Vincent de Paul, Volunteers of America... 

Remember! Buying Used is 

Ecologically Friendly! 

I won't be Buying any of This...

When You Buy a New Product, the Corporation Has to Replace It. Their Computers Automatically Order another Product to Keep the Shelves Stocked... 

They Mine Raw Materials, grow plants (like cotton) using pesticides and herbicides, Log Forests, Employ Slave Laborers in the Orient, Burn Gasoline Shipping the Plastic Crap Here From China... and on and on and on... Used Products ALREADY EXIST and so Buying Stuff at The Eureka Rescue Mission Thrift Shop (my local store) does NOT Harm the Planet. Actually, They Hire Local People to Work as Clerks and Do Delivery. We Bought ALL our Living Room Furniture there. Three Chairs and a Sofa... and Men Delivered It Upstairs in Our Home. NO WAY could I Move those Heavy Objects Up That Staircase... I Tipped those Guys $10 Each... and they were really Thankful. Yes, I Could Have Spent a Fortune at Sears or KMART but... I Prefer to Keep The Money IN MY WALLET. I Like Employing Guys That Live At The Rescue Mission. The Mission Does Good Work Here in Eureka and I've Met a LOT of Real People That They Help. I did buy new Beds at Sears. Somehow, those were just too Personal to Buy Used... also, I Do Not Buy Used Underwear... BUT, Clothes? YES! It's actually fun to find thrift stores in Super Rich Neighborhoods and Live Like the TV Show "Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous..." A Great Place to Shop is North Shore Lake Tahoe... Snow Bunnies often Donate Extra Stuff When the Season is Over... and There is Also DUMPSTER DIVING in College Towns at the End of the School Year... FREE STUFF! 

~~~~~~ (~);-} ~~~~~~

On the Other Hand... You Can Buy Stuff that's Already Made in the USA... For Example: Zazzle/Gregvan offers Gifts that are Made in Reno, Nevada... and The Corporation Headquarters is Located in Fremont, CA...

That Entire Era of Celebrating Car Culture is Fading Away... and Flying in Jet Airplanes TOO...

During the Sixties it was Quite Fashionable to be Part of the "Jet Set" - I flew with my Parents on Family Vacations... Hawaii, Washington DC, New England... However, I Have not Flown in over 20 Years. The Last time was a "Meet the Inlaws" Trip when I first got Married to my Second Ex-Wife. 

2001? It was Fun because we went to the Original DuPont Factory where they Ground Gunpowder... and the Franklin Museum in Philadelphia...  

and People "Went on Tour with The Grateful Dead" - Really! - I personally Have driven from Washington DC to Pittsburgh or New York City just to Go to a Concert... and Other People Drove all over the Country in Old Hippie Buses That got terrible gas mileage... Remember Ken Kesey and The Magic Bus named Further? 

  

Car Races on Saturday Night at The Fairgrounds? Tractor Pulls? Drag Races? The Movie "Easy Rider?"(celebrating the Freedom of Smuggling Illegal Drugs and Having Money and Taking a Bike Ride Across Country and Hiring Hookers and Eating LSD) "On the Road" by Jack Kerouac? Cruising on Main Street to Meet Other Teenagers?

"Paradise by the Dashboard Light" a song by Meatloaf...  about Sex in a Car... Taking a Sunday Drive with the Family... all of that is in the Rear View Mirror and is Fading Away...

Believe it or Not: The STURGIS Motorcycle Rally is ON for this Summer... Last Year it was a superspreader event and thousands of bikers got Coronavirus There and then Spread it to their Friends and Family... FUN! 

https://www.sturgismotorcyclerally.com/

Car Culture Has Pretty Much defined the USA in the Last Hundred Years... Did you know that there were Trolley Cars in Los Angeles a Long Time Ago? That way people could travel all over town without taking their own Horse... All the Trolley Car tracks were removed to make room for automobiles... 

and now there is an Insane Traffic Jam Everywhere all the time! Is That Progress? Or Just Profit for Corporations that Sell Cars and Gasoline? 

The way it works is Super Rich people own those Corporations and they Buy Politicians that write Friendly Laws... That Benefits those Rich People...

Did you ever hear of FRACKING? That's a way to get oil out of the ground by forcing water deep into the Earth... anyway... It costs more to extract Oil using that process than the Company Can Sell the Oil For... They Lose a Little Bit of Money on Every Barrel... But they Get a Government Subsidy that Allows them To Make a Profit... Fundamentally, the Fracking Technique is a Tool to EXTRACT MONEY FROM THE US GOVERNMENT!

and Oil gets into the drinking water of the people that live near a fracking well... and those people also shower in poison... so just buying bottled water is only partially effective... because the toxic waste seeps into your body thru the skin... CRAZY!

"I blame the internal combustion engine for the warming up of our atmosphere." - Said JH - 

I Replied:  Methane is a Serious Problem Too:

Cow farts... Pig Farts too... Really... Eating Meat Causes Global Warming... The Farming of Meat Causes More Greenhouse Gasses than All Cars and Trucks COMBINED... HOWEVER... I'm going to Continue to Eat Meat... and Cheese... and Ice Cream...  Maybe Switch to Impossible Burgers or Beyond Meat... But I'm Keeping the Ice Cream and Cheese... 

https://topdocumentaryfilms.com/vegan/

JH SAID: Greenhouse gasses yes, but the internal combustion engine takes in cool air mixes it with fuel and dumps hot air out the exhaust, and there are millions and millions of them running 24/7 365 days a year.

I replied: I Have Driven a Car Just for Fun... a LOT... Often We would from Washington DC Travel to New York City Just for Something to Do on a Friday Night... 

NOW... I Don't Own a Car... and I only go to Doctor's Appointments Via LYFT... At 67 Years of age I'm Not Motivated to Travel... BUT... 

Millions of People Drive Every Freaking Day to Get to Work... Sometimes Huge Distances... People Drive from Sacramento to a Job in San Francisco... CRAZY... But People Have to Work and The Jobs are NOT Located Near Homes... and YET... We Have Abandoned Shopping Malls near Homes... and Tech Companies COULD Relocate to an Empty Store...

RB Said: Airplanes and coal fired power plants have gigantic carbon footprints 🙄

I Replied: I have not Flown in a Jet Airplane in Over 20 Years... I Had to Meet my In-laws soon after I Married their Daughter... I was Living in Eureka, CA and They Were in Delaware... I can't Think of ANY VALID EXCUSE NOW for Flying in a Jet Airplane... ZOOM is Good Enough for me... 

I Believe We Will FAIL to Avoid Climate Change and Temperatures of 130 Degrees Will Become Common in The Western USA... and Our Climate Will become Similar to Saudi Arabia... after all the Trees Burn... Sorry to be "Debbie Downer" but MY PLAN is to Move to The Coast of NorCal or Oregon... or Canada... or Alaska... It's Cool and Rainy There... Arcata and Eureka Have the Best Chances of Avoiding Wildfires That will Burn the Rest of the State... Maybe Not This Year but Certainly During My Lifetime... 

Just Fleeing North is a Great Plan Until... WE RUN OUT OF NORTH! Eventually, The Only Place to Live Will Be The North Pole AND THEN WHAT?
