How much pollution could be produced from two gallons of fuel ? Im not buying it . Anyone got any real numbers ?
Sutton, don't understand what ya on about now.
Originaly you posted that ya not buying the fact a HT produces "alarming" pollution, then Spooky Tooth gets a test done and passes, and unless I'm reading this wrong, if I am, apologies, if due, but ya seem to be saying that ya don't buy the Spooky Tooth test either ?
I posted from a "look at the big picture" angle to, "TOTAL view from raw materials to product death" angle.
My angle is the TOTAL concept of production where things that CAN last a lifetime and more, rather than what the Japs. started to do in the 70's, to make cars last 5 years with inherited rust problems etc, so we are forced to renew the car or products. This is where one of, if not THE root causes of pollution originates from.
So if a WHOLE global concept, IF ( and I doubt IF ever) industry changes and simply add common sense instead of perpetual profiteering in the way products are manufactured, then no matter what the 2 stroke, ya diesal and ya 4 stroke's emissions are, because IF only a car ( hypothetically) can be built to last longer, lets say, 20 years ? before it starts to rust, then that is 3 cars LESS to produce.
So 20 million people by 20 million cars on average every 20 years. Not 20 million people having to buy 80 million cars.
That's 60 million automobiles that did not really HAVE to see the light of day.
How many tons of raw product could have stayed in the ground and less pollution in our rivers ?
I'm no greeny and most of the greenies **** me off anyway, but from a practical common sense point of view I'm ****ed off because I have to buy the same tools as posted, again ! due to this ridiculous concept of not making them last a life time or "industry will go out of biziness" DOGSBOLOCKS!
The principles are wrong, in my laymans opinion.
Like I mentioned before, the DAWN brand name vice bought in 1963 has outlasted a NO-BRAND-NAME vice made 2003.
Fortunately I don't have to buy another vice, the point is, how many of these vices have broken by now, and have to be repurchased by others, unessescarily ?
So therefore,
The factory making the vices has to dig up more raw material and the cycle goes on again to manufacture another breakable vice so it don't last 3 or more generations.
THERE'S the root cause the greenies need to go dig, not mess with the consumer who has a dwindling choice and is forced to focus on minute dogsbollocks like exhaust emissions of a 2 stroke (therefore missing the obvious), where as we would not require a 2-stroke if cars were made to last longer in the first place therefore lesseining the damand on oil to re-manufacture the same.
It's another one of those, dare I say it, c..co..con..spi..ra..cy...thangs !
Unfortunately,the reality is no matter what I say, no matter what anyone educated with the enitre alphabet after their name says, it will not change for long while yet to come because we all want a piece of the $action$.
