Can you run a car on water?

[blacklineninja]

what about solar powered cars? Only problem then would be sitting on the bonnet trying to look cool would scald your bum...

[StevieDB9]

haha, burnt bum!

what worries me most about "renewable energy" cars is the lack of noise from the exhaust. (if there is one)

speaker in the boot

"vroom vroom " just think a solar paneled car with a v12 soundtrack

If vegetable derived fuels are to be considered, perhaps we can relax a bit with regard to genetically modified strains if crops are grown purely for use as road fuel. I do not want to be eating, or feeding my kids, anything that's been f...ed about with.

But, I have no problem with running road vehicles on fuel derived from crops that are specifically engineered to increase the ethanol or RME yield.

I suppose the problem is ensuring that such crops never come into contact with food crops or those crops which are grown to feed livestock reared for consumption as food.

Perhaps grow fuel crops in massive poly-tunnels thus removing most risk of contamination with food crops. (There's always a slight chance).

Its cross pollination that worries me with GM crops, even with POLY tunnels. We might get wierd strains of other plants that consume human flesh and start taking over the country. GM is bad!
