Mr Fusion

With the ever increasing amount of talk of fuel prices, economy meltdown, food crisis, terrorist attack and the impending arrival of the aliens (okay, I made that last one up), it’s all been about transport and oil.

Whilst there has been so much talk about electric, battery powered and hydrogen fuelled vehicles, what I really want to see the Mr Fusion “Flux Capacitor” (okay, again I know the flux was the bit that made time travel possible, but it just sounds so cool), garbage powered cars.

Think about it, would solve all of the current problems – waste food would become useful, as well as packaging solving a whole heap of recycling problems, oil can be used for more beneficial purposes, the economy would stabilise as a result of the reduction in ‘fuel’ costs and we only have to worry about the aliens.

I trust someone is working towards this solution – or are we just waiting for Emmett Brown to bring the solution to us from the future?

Apparently there are already solutions out there for effective "hydro car" and "solar powered" vehicles but the mass reduced sales in petrol would have huge effects on the economy. So, there are measures taken to ensure they can nver be massed produced.

The same as if tomorrow everyone stopped smoking and drinking - where would the government get the huge amounts of money it makes from them in various taxes. The country would crumble!
