No, it's not generating energy directly.
It's generating heat which can then be used to convert to energy.
The heat "generated" is enough for nearly a 2 to 1 ratio of energy in Vs energy out.
We won't see it because it threatens oil.
So let me understand you... it's generating heat, not energy. Because, after all, it's not like heat is "a form of energy that is transferred by a difference in temperature".
And so, according to you, a process that breaks apart H2O into hydrogen and oxygen, and then recombines them, can yield a 2:1 ratio of energy output?
Please. God. Tell. Me. You. Are. Joking.
I mean, please at least study the basics of thermodynamics. This is physics 101. There is nothing remotely complicated about this.
It's not about oil companies, it's about basic physical laws. Oil is both abundant and extremely energy-dense. It is both cheap to extract, and easy to transport. It is the best form of energy we currently have, and that is why we use it.
Just this week I was mocked for my views on evolution, and you made your contribution to that. I was called stupid by many people, just because of my views on evolution. And now you turn around and question the very basics of thermodynamics... and yet I am the one who doesn't understand science? How can you mock me for my beliefs and then turn around and make these kind of ridiculous assertions?
