			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1><a title="newhydro" href="http://www.climatecleanup.net/blog/newhydro™">NewHYDRO™</a></h1>
<p align="center">
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://greenipp.com.au"><img class="aligncenter" title="newhydro, new, hydro" src="http://new-hydro.com/a-better-way-newhydro.png" alt="" width="215" height="152" /></a></p>
<p align="justify"><strong>NewHydro™</strong> is a new reliable, clean, low cost,              large scale electric power generating technology mechanically              powered by air pressure and gravity like the traditional hydro method.</p>
<p align="justify">Growth, innovation and leadership is the            opportunity inherent in solving the future electricity generation            problems of planet Earth – <strong>NewHYDRO™</strong> offers unprecedented opportunity            for global growth for renewable electricity companies.</p>
<p align="justify">Planetary Civilisation Ventures [PCV] works in a            rank in advance of science aiming to solve threatening problems to            humanity’s environment on planet Earth.  PCV’s <strong>NewHYDRO™</strong> 24/7 clean            low cost power system provides electricity industry CEO’s the            opportunity for sustained growth of their business into the future.</p>
<h2><a title="newhydro" href="http://www.climatecleanup.net/blog/newhydro™">NewHYDRO™</a></h2>
<p>PCV’s <strong>NewHYDRO™</strong> is based on the well established            Hydro technology that today supplies half the electricity supply of            the Earth, namely, water moved by air pressure and the force of            gravity to turn a turbine to generate clean electricity.  People            generally do not appreciate the actual principles at work when they            see the massive height and bulk of a hydro dam or reservoir and the            mass of water contained therein.  Most often people think that the            shear weight of water must be how a Hydro plant works, but behind all            the mass of the Hydro project there are invisible scientific facts at            work, namely air pressure pushing down on the surface of the water            area, and gravitational force accelerating its fall toward turbines.</p>
<h3><a title="newhydro" href="http://www.climatecleanup.net/blog/newhydro™">NewHYDRO™</a></h3>
<p>PCV therefore can be seen to focus on the “Why” an            electricial generation method works, as opposed to the “How” it            works.  In the case of Hydro Power the Why is air presssure and            gravity and the mechanics they allow to come into play by the            construction of a Hydro dam.  With the creation of an artifical            process to continuously move a fixed volume of water <strong>NewHYDRO™</strong> Powerhouses can service the clean power needs of cities or through            existing grids potentially all the world.</p>

<p>In addition to PCV&#8217;s Science and Technology product, PCV evolves and originates new ways of doing business, or more precisely, prescribes innovative entrepreneurial and commercial leadership strategies and tactics for seizing control with the aim of dominating already mature existing markets.</p>
<p>About <a title="planetary civilisation ventures" href="http://pcv.petergriffiths.org/">Planetary Civlilisation Ventures Pty Ltd</a> [<a title="pcv" href="http://pcv.petergriffiths.org/">PCV</a>] : The key promoter of the Company is Dr. Peter Lionel Griffiths, Managing Director of the Company.   He is supported by a group of Investors, and also Consultants, from various fields, including, Science, Clean Energy Systems Research, Education, Physics, Project Management and Investment Banking.</p>
<p>Dr. Griffiths has a Doctorate in Divinity (Humanities and Physics majoring in the subject of statics and kinetics) and has worked as a chartered Accountant and Management Consultant in the fields of High Technology, Science, Inventions and International Finance for more than 25 years.</p>
<p>With the increased production of electricity from reliable natural supply, and continually replacing capacity of Thermal Combustion Power Plants that burn fossil fuels, countries throughout the world will gradually reduce their dependence on huge imports of fossil fuels such as coal, crude oil and natural gas to become self-sufficient in the periods 2010 to 2030, and 2031 to 2050.  Present day concerns about the increasing energy needs of a growing world population have now shifted well beyond the recognition to replace limited fossil fuel supplies, to climate change and air pollution mitigation.  PCV&#8217;s product has zero pollution for the production of electricity.</p>
<p><a title="planetary civilisation ventures" href="http://pcv.petergriffiths.org/">Planetary Civlilisation Ventures Pty Ltd</a> [<a title="pcv" href="http://pcv.petergriffiths.org/">PCV</a>] : Mission and Objectives : To build a worldwide environment friendly and sustainable energy electricity system based on harnessing reliable natural supply sources, contribute to the replacement of Thermal Combustion Power plants for supplying electricity, and established distributed electricity systems independent of long distance grids.</p>
<p>The Company expects that it&#8217;s pioneering efforts will contribute to proliferation of distributed low cost reliable clean electricity systems and plants, resulting in reduction of import bills on account of fossil fuels, and eliminating pollution from the generation of electricity.</p>
<p>This integrated and self reliant approach adopted by the company, encompassing all skills and activities, starting from Real Science Technology to partnering with operators to engineer a wide range of equipment, and territorial distribution of the opportunity to promote widespread market penetration for the use of Fully Dispatchable Hydro Storage Technology™ worldwide.</p>
<p>The Company encourages both individuals and corporates who wish to establish in territorial markets for renewable electricity generation to become active in preparing their markets for operations.  As the company proposes to operate in all geographic zones of the world, territorial partners have the opportunity to take full responsibility for the operations and rewards in their specific territory.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft" title="AFP" src="http://www.google.com/hostednews/img/afp_logo.gif?hl=en" alt="" width="74" height="40" />On the international level, the United States is &#8220;powerfully and fervently engaged&#8221; in talks to forge a global climate treaty by the end of the year, Obama&#8217;s Special Envoy on climate Todd Stern said Sunday in Bonn, as the 11-day United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) forum got under way.</p>
<p>WASHINGTON (AFP) 1 April 2009 — The House of Representatives Tuesday received a draft</p>
<div class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 196px"><img title="US representative Henry Waxman" src="http://www.google.com/hostednews/afp/media/ALeqM5gq67rh9sdPnz14_rq90OKnikiVug?size=s2" alt="US representative Henry Waxman" width="186" height="285" /><p class="wp-caption-text">US representative Henry Waxman</p></div>
<p>bill for clean energy development that its authors claim would create millions of jobs and slash 2005 levels of <a title="carbon dioxide co2 emissions" href="http://www.climatecleanup.com/know-how/benefits">carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions</a> by 20 percent by the year 2020.</p>
<p>The American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009 (ACES) breaks down into four sections dealing with renewable sources of energy, energy efficiency, global warming reduction, and a transition to a clean energy economy.</p>
<p>&#8220;This legislation will create millions of clean energy jobs, put America on the path to energy independence, and cut global warming pollution,&#8221; the draft bill&#8217;s co-sponsor, Energy and Commerce Committee Chairman Henry Waxman, said in a statement.</p>
<p>&#8220;This legislation will create clean energy jobs that can?t be shipped overseas, reduce our dependence on foreign oil, and make America the global leader in energy technology,&#8221; Energy and Environment subcommittee chairman and co-sponsor Ed Markey said in a separate statement.</p>
<p>&#8220;We will create jobs by the millions, save money by the billions, and unleash energy investment by the trillions,&#8221; he said, adding that one of the aims of the measure was &#8220;protecting American consumers.&#8221;</p>
<p>The draft proposed legislation by the two Democrats lays out targets for reducing global warming that are even more ambitious than those promised by President Barack Obama during his presidential campaign.</p>

<h2>Paradise lost: climate change forces South Sea islanders to seek sanctuary abroad</h2>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img title="Paradise Lost" src="http://www.independent.co.uk/multimedia/archive/00031/kiribati_31557t.jpg" alt="null" width="294" height="194" /></p>
<p>After years of fruitless appeals for decisive action on <em>climate change</em>, the tiny South Pacific nation of Kiribati has concluded that it is doomed. Yesterday its President, Anote Tong, used World Environment Day to request international help to evacuate his country before it disappears.</p>
<p>Water supplies are being contaminated by the encroaching salt water, Mr Tong said, and crops destroyed. Beachside communities have been moved inland. But Kiribati – 33 coral atolls sprinkled across two million square miles of ocean – has limited scope to adapt. Its highest land is barely 6 feet above sea level.</p>
<p>Speaking in New Zealand, Mr Tong said i-Kiribati, as his countrymen are known, had no option but to leave. &#8220;We may be beyond redemption,&#8221; he said. &#8220;We may be at the point of no return, where the <strong>emissions in the atmosphere will carry on contributing to climate change</strong>, to produce a sea level change so in time our small, low-lying islands will be submerged.&#8221;</p>

<h2>EPA will regulate greenhouse gases,<br />
says US climate chief</h2>

<p><strong>The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) will regulate carbon dioxide emissions from coal-fired power stations, Barack Obama&#8217;s climate chief said this week.</strong></p>
<p>Carol Browner, special adviser to the president on <em>climate change</em>, said in an interview on Sunday at the Western Governors&#8217; Association meeting in Washington that the EPA is looking at a ruling from a Supreme Court in 2007 that requires the agency to decide whether CO2 emissions are a danger to public health and &#8221; will make an endangerment finding&#8221;. [ Refer to our 17th February Entry <a title="epa" href="http://www.climatecleanup.net/blog/epa-urged-to-act-on-climate-change">http://www.climatecleanup.net/blog/epa-urged-to-act-on-climate-change</a> ]</p>
<p><strong>The decision will overrule a memo issued in the final days of the Bush administration that said that carbon dioxide emissions need not be considered when approving applications for new power plants.</strong></p>
<p>The move would mean coal-fired power plants would be unlikely to receive the go-ahead without developing Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) technology <em>[ or use our Black Box CO2 Emission Reduction Technology refer <a title="CO2 Emission Reduction Technology" href="http://www.climatecleanup.net/blog/black-box">http://www.climatecleanup.net/blog/black-box </a>]</em> . <strong>It could also open up heavy polluters to legal action by those who say they are affected by CO2 emissions.</strong></p>
<p>When the review of the Supreme Court decision was announced last week, a permit application for a new coal-fired plant in Oklahoma was withdrawn within hours.</p>
<p>Many in the industry have argued that such a stringent change to policy should come through rules passed by Congress, rather than a decision by the regulator.</p>
<p>Browner also announced that the Obama administration is seeking to establish national rules for <strong>regulating emissions from cars</strong>.</p>
<p>&#8220;The hope across the administration is that we can have a unified national policy when it comes to cleaner vehicles,&#8221; Browner said.</p>
<p>But the <em>Washington Post</em> reports that rather than bypassing Congress on this policy, it is more likely that the Obama administration will seek to regulate it through a Congress-agreed cap-and-trade scheme, which would generate much-needed revenues for the federal government.</p>
<p>&#8220;The administration is engaged with Congress to pass cap-and-trade legislation, which the president believes is far superior to a regulatory approach using the existing Clean Air Act,&#8221; an official told the <em>Washington Post</em>.</p>
<p>&#8220;If [the EPA] finds that greenhouse gases endanger health or welfare, the next steps would be taken thoughtfully and with input from all stakeholders.&#8221;</p>
<p>The state of California is waiting to hear from the federal government whether or not it can regulate its own car emissions.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">
<div id="attachment_284" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 240px"><a title="Climate Cleanup Technology" rel="attachment wp-att-284" href="http://www.climatecleanup.net/blog/?attachment_id=284"><img class="size-full wp-image-284" title="carbon_reduction_2009" src="http://www.petergriffiths.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/carbon_reduction_2009.png" alt="President Obama Takes The Lead" width="230" height="145" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">President Obama Takes The Lead</p></div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: &quot;MS Reference Sans Serif&quot;; color: black;"><strong>President Barack Obama</strong> leaves no doubt that his administration will move aggressively to address &#8220;long overdue&#8221; <em>energy and environmental issues</em> and, in a pointed reversal of </span><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: &quot;MS Reference Sans Serif&quot;; color: black;">U.S.</span><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: &quot;MS Reference Sans Serif&quot;; color: black;"> policy under George W. Bush, he said that &#8220;ideology will no longer trump sound science.&#8221;</span></p>
<p>He said <strong>carbon emissions</strong> must be reduced to stem the ill effects of <em>climate change</em>, and oil consumption must be reduced to protect national and economic security from over-reliance on oil imports.  That&#8217;s the correct way of looking at the Climate Change issue.</p>
<p><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: &quot;MS Reference Sans Serif&quot;; color: black;">If deep reductions in <em>greenhouse gas emissions</em> are required to meet the <a href="http://unfccc.int/"><span style="color: black;">UNFCCC</span></a> [The <em>United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change]</em> goal of stabilization of anthropogenic (man made) greenhouse gas emissions (of which carbon dioxide is the main culprit) &#8211; then one thing is clear, we must move fast, very fast.<span> </span>In 2007, US <em>greenhouse gas <em><span style="font-family: &quot;MS Reference Sans Serif&quot;;">emissions</span></em></em> totaled 7.28Bt [billion tonnes] <em><span style="font-family: &quot;MS Reference Sans Serif&quot;;">carbon dioxide</span></em> equivalent (GtCO2e). </span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: &quot;MS Reference Sans Serif&quot;; color: black;">The capture and storage of CO<span class="co2">2</span> from fossil fuel combustion could play an important part in solving this problem. However, widespread use of a newly available CO2 Emissions Reduction Black Box Device promoted by <strong>Climate Cleanup&#8217;s Green Tech Group</strong> could achieve rapid reduction of CO2 emissions without the need for a rapid change in the energy supply infrastructure.</span></p>
<div id="attachment_296" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 180px"><a href="http://www.petergriffiths.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/cc_banner_use.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-296" title="cc_banner_use" src="http://www.petergriffiths.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/cc_banner_use.jpg" alt="Peter's Green Tech Group" width="170" height="250" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Green Tech Group</p></div>
<p>In the long-term the world&#8217;s energy system may have to be based on non-fossil energy sources. Decarbonizing the use of fossil fuels, by <em>capture and storage of CO<span class="co2">2</span></em>, would help the transition to a future carbon-free energy system.  However, reducing current CO2 emissions by using our <strong>CO2 Reduction Black Box Device</strong> will ensure the rapid solution to saving the environment and life as we know it on planet Earth.</p>
<p class="bluetitle"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: &quot;MS Reference Sans Serif&quot;; color: black;">Today, there are many advocates of delaying needed actions and influencing government and the world&#8217;s population to wait for the emergence of <em>alternate and renewable fuel sources</em> to fossil fuels.  There is no guarantee whatsoever that the public will not be held to ransom by the suppliers of new fuels as they are currently by the fossil fuel providers.  This is the wrong target. We must act NOW and actually reduce CO2 emissions first!</span></p>
<p class="bluetitle"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: &quot;MS Reference Sans Serif&quot;; color: black;"><strong>The point is, it is not necessarily the fuel source that is the cause of the excess <em>carbon dioxide CO2 pollution problem</em>.  The actual problem is not acting to reduce the existing emissions, and this has primarily been because no universal device had been invented and made available to the world capable of reducing the CO2 emissions.<span> Now there is such a device.</span></strong></span></p>
