Letters / Free fuel for ferries?
Why are we still talking about wind farms for power production and oil for fuel when alternatives have been known about for years?
Because being able to make fuel from water is within the capabilities of most people and therefore free, uncontrollable, untaxable and not for the masses.
This article may have renamed it syngas but it’s still Brown’s Gas at the end of the day discovered by Yul Brown in the 1900s.
Ferries running on free clean fuel?
