The Way Forward: Thorium Powered Vehicles, By Brian Simpson

At present the West is gripped by the ideology of zero net produced by climate change catastrophe/alarmist ideologies. This view is in fact the dominant view in the West, held by globalist organisations right down to lowly academic punters who brainwash the next generation. For example, the present Pope has written and spoken much about an alleged climate change crisis, and he is fully on board with the zero net position. But that is not all, it gets worse, as there is another pernicious view, held by some influential academics, that zero net is not enough, but there should be massive de-growth and de-industrialisation. The full ramifications of this, being global starvation, is not lost on some of these academics, who seem quite happy with the depopulation agenda, seeing the world as over-populated and thus in the position of what they call "ecological overshoot."

Defeating all of this, and maintaining fossil fuel use is an up-hill battle. Thus, there will have to be a Plan B that goes part of the way with the zero net nonsense, while working to destroy it, and nuclear energy may do this. Hence developments such as vehicles powered by the radioactive element thorium, could be a game changer. In nuclear reactors, thorium operates at low pressures and temperatures, so the chances of a meltdown are low, and the nuclear reaction can be easily shut-down, further diminishing chances of an accident. The radioactive waste produced tends to be short-lived and easily disposed of. Thorium is readily available on the Earth's surface and is even more abundant than other nuclear elements. A thorium-powered car will have minimal greenhouse gas emissions, at least shutting up the Greenies on that point, although they have a primal fear of all radioactive elements. The research and development is continuing, as detailed below, but there does not seem to be any insuperable problems in creating these vehicles.

This is a job, not for Super-man, but Elon Musk!

"In the context of the green energy movement of transports, a revolutionary concept that can potentially displace hydrogen, ammonia, and battery electric vehicles (BEVs) is now at hand. This revolutionary technology of Maschinenbau uses thorium, a radioactive material, to build cars that might not need a refill for a hundred years.

But as we immerse ourselves in this fascinating innovation, we'll have the chance to examine its various opportunities and threats and the potential ramifications it could have on transport and energy systems. This thorium-powered concept also promises to revamp the idea of sustainable mobility in a way that existing frameworks cannot address and essentially bring about a revolution in energy maintenance and usage for long-lasting vehicles without emissions.

Thorium-powered vehicles could change automobile engineering forever

The idea of using thorium as fuel for automobiles is one of the most radical, and it could soon become a reality in the automobile industry. This would revolutionize the concept of propulsion methods, as these vehicles wouldn't run on conventional combustion engines or batteries but rather on thorium, making it the most efficient solution in terms of energy density.

Yet thorium is 50 times rarer, and the fuel generates an immense amount of energy, which would mean increased driving ranges and significantly smaller amounts of refuelling. This revolutionary concept, where Laser Power Systems and car manufacturers such as Cadillac play a significant part, involves using thorium to produce heat for conversion to electricity in the automobile. Quite literally, this technology holds the promise of overturning the current form and fabric of the automotive industry, with a future not too distant where refuelling is a rarity and the specter of the range is vanquished.

Environmental advantages of thorium-powered vehicles you didn't know about

The possibilities of thorium-powered vehicles and one of the most exciting and unique aspects of the concept is safety. Compared to regular nuclear reactors, Thoreauvian reactors are used at relatively low pressures and temperatures; thus, the probability of an accident or meltdown is low. These reactors also self-organize or are "walk-away safe," implying that the process can cease without any imposed action.

From this environmental point of view, thorium-powered vehicles have many advantages. Thorium is easily found on the Earth's surface and is much more abundant than fossil fuels. In terms of its use as fuel, its greenhouse gas emissions are low, reducing the effects of global warming. Also, thorium reactors produce relatively little long-lived radioactive waste, which is easier to handle and has less impact on the environment.

Challenges and future prospects for thorium-based vehicles

Thorium-based vehicles could be a reality if they solved the following problems: The effective use and application of thorium inertial reactors in automobiles are still in their developmental stages and will thus need much investigation and capital; creating safety standards and regulations to guarantee the non-threatening use of such vehicles calls for special attention.

Further, the critical public awareness issues that need consideration include radiation and safety, which will also be the primary drivers of public acceptance. Nonetheless, several studies on thorium-powered vehicles have emerged over the last few years. Many concepts have demonstrated their possibilities, and governments, scientific institutions, and companies are considering how this general implementation can occur.

Lastly, the modern creation of cars that run on thorium is an inspiring innovation in the search for green mobility. Since these vehicles do not need refueling, they can run for as long as a century, giving glimpses into the future of car technology characterized by efficiency, safety, and environmental sustainability. Despite this, the opportunities for increased ranges, decreased emissions, and energy insufficiency warrant pursuing thorium-powered vehicles.

With current advancements towards finding substitutes for fossil fuel and standard electric cars, thorium transport could be the key to innovative energy derivation. However, one must appreciate this innovation cautiously and acknowledge that more discoveries, developments, and debates must occur in the public domain before thorium-powered automobiles hit our highways."
