Actually, EA-85 and other ethanol-based fuels have a negative impact, because they are far less efficient than gasoline, consume more energy to produce, and they survive economically only because of huge subsidies to ADM and other corporations (which takes even more money out of the economy, instead of creating jobs). While rudcing carbon emissions, E85 increases the emissions of acetaldehyde from vehicles.

Furthermore, cheap (subsidized) EA-85 destroys engines in older cars (and this has had a devastating effect, especially on the "Reservations" where Native Americans live and often depend on older models).

How Technology is harming the environment?

initially the technology we have is not harming the environment, we are. Think about it, if we had all the same technology but we used it only in times that we had to, the world would be much cleaner and everyone would be much healthier.


Who invented the first robotic vacuum cleaner?

The first robotic vacuum cleaner was invented by James Dyson, who created the first prototype in 1997. However, the first commercially successful robotic vacuum cleaner was the Roomba, developed by iRobot, which was released in 2002. The Roomba popularized the concept of autonomous vacuuming and has since become a well-known household appliance.


What are the positive environmental effects of nuclear energy?

Positive environmental effects of nuclear energy revolve around air pollution. With nuclear energy, there is less waste that gets distributed into the atmosphere. The air is actually cleaner due to the fact that no air pollutants are released.

What is the difference between a one diode rectifier and a two diode rectifier?

A one diode rectifier is called a half wave rectifier and only allows current flow for the positive portion of the sine wave. A two diode rectifier, or full wave rectifier allows positive current flow during the positive portion of the wave as well as positive current flow during the negative portion of the sine wave. This results in a much cleaner DC power signal. The addition of a capacitor in the output circuit will clean up the signal very nicely.

When was the Dyson cleaner made?

The first Dyson vacuum cleaner, the DC01, was launched in 1993. It was the first vacuum to use cyclonic separation, a technology developed by James Dyson in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Since then, Dyson has released numerous models and innovations in vacuum technology.
