Zenn Electric Car Review |
|
|
| Zenn Electric Vehicle.
If you are tired of getting gouged at the
gas pump, then it may be time to immerse
yourself in Zenn. We don't mean the Eastern
religion version of Zenn, but rather a neighborhood
electric vehicle that boasts Zero Emissions
and No Noise (Zenn). The Zenn vehicle is
targeted at a small demographic of people
who travel short distances at extremely
slow speeds. If you live on a small island,
a campus or in a planned community, the
Zenn might be the car for you...or maybe
not. Click the Watch Video button below
the picture to see KBB.com editor Beth Lear-VanderYacht's
take on the Zenn.

Volvo Electric Car ReCharge
Concept |

|
| Volvo Electric Car
ReCharge Concept hybrid In-Wheel Motor EV
Only about 15% of the energy from the
fuel you put in your tank gets used to
move your car down the road or run useful
accessories, such as air conditioning.
The rest of the energy is lost to engine
and drive line inefficiencies and idling.
Therefore, the potential to improve fuel
efficiency with advanced technologies
is enormous. With an Electric Car it costs
just $2.00 per 100kms with MUCH more performance
than with petrol at $20.00 per 100kms. |

What are we waiting for? |
|
|
| Two thirds of all energy
generated in the UK's nuclear, coal and
gas fuelled power stations is lost as waste
heat - that's enough heat to meet the whole
of the UK's heating and hot water needs.
Greenpeace has launched a new short film,
"What are we waiting for?" Made
by BAFTA award-winning Memory Box Films
and narrated by Clive Anderson, the film
answers the crucial energy question facing
the UK: how can we combat climate change
and ensure energy security without nuclear
power. |

Climate: A Crisis Averted |
|
|
| "Climate: A Crisis
Averted" looks back from 2056 and recounts
how ordinary citizens in 2006 -- realizing
that global warming was a scientific fact
and not a climatic theory -- take action
to demand clean energy and other planet-friendly
options. The movie describes how a movement
called RenewUS effected real change with
an action plan, or 'call-to-arms' on global
warming.
