The problem with cheap gas and oil is that they brake the investments in new energy sources.




The main problem with the warming of the atmosphere is the use of fossil fuels. If fossil fuels or fossil energy sources are replaced, using some other energy source like hydrogen that is produced by clean energy will decrease carbon dioxide emission. 

But the problem is that the new energy sources like geothermal energy, wave and tide energy, wind and solar energy require new investments. The thing that gives brakes to those investments is the cheap fossil fuel. The investments that the new energy sources require are causing the rise in the price of energy. 

The Ukrainian crisis is opening the people's eyes that the Russian government can use its energy weapon against the West. That means the cheap oil and natural gas are not enticed to invest in some kind of green energy. That thing is the weapon in the hands of the deliverer of the energy source. When we are looking at history we should remember the oil crisis. 

The Ukrainian situation can cause a new "oil crisis". Gas and oil are effective tools in the hands of the people, who want to use them to drive their political goals. 

The reason for the oil crisis was that in 1973 the OPEC or Arabic nations that were members of OPEC decided to increase the price of oil, and tried to force the USA and its allies to stop the military aid to Israel. The reason why Arabs have so many friends is that they are controlling a very large part of the oil rigs of the world. The Islamic revolution in Iran was the reason for the second oil crisis in 1979. The leaders of the Muslim oil producers wanted to help their "Islamic brothers". 

The 1979 oil crisis caused the situation that outside nations didn't want to intervene in Iran's internal political situation. 

And that raised Khomeini to power. The fear was that OPEC will stop oil delivery to NATO. And that was the reason why Khomeini got power in Iran. Relationships between Iran and other Islamic nations are sometimes very cold. 

The oil crisis should warn the world about the scenario that governments can use their oil and energy weapons against countries. That is determined "hostile". Maybe Putin waits for the next winter when Europe needs the energy to start to use that energy weapon. If we would use green energy we would not face that kind of problem.

When robots are laughing and crying.

When robots are laughing and crying.  Does the AI have feelings?  Does the AI have feelings? Or can it be emphatic? The fact is this program code that controls the AI determines if it can give empathic reactions. The problem with the human nervous system is that we don't make a difference in the writing of empathic letters or telling empathic stories human or AI. Our nervous system is not adapted to AI yet. And that's why we cannot separate text written by AI from text that made by humans.  What does somebody make with AI that can emulate feelings? The fact is that the cyborgs are useful tools for infiltration operations. The human-size robots can have WLAN/6G connections with the central computers. Or they can form a neural network that shares information between all group members. The robots can also act as walking neural network-based supercomputers. That can make complicated solutions.  In those networks, each member shares information and their data-handling capacity all o

Earth 2.0 has been caused discussion about the possibility to find another civilization

    Earth 2.0 has been caused discussion about the possibility to find another civilization The Earth 2.0 or officially Kepler-452b is locating extreme log distance from Earth(1).    A new Earth-type planet has been found near the star, which is similar to our own Sun. The journey to that planet would take 1400 years, even if the spacecraft will reach the speed of the light. The planet has been found in the year 2008, but the confirmation of the existence of that planet has been taken time, but in 2015 the confirmation has been got, and Earth 2.0 has turned true.  The mass of that planet is 1,9 times Earth and the temperature is excellent if we are thinking about liquid water, but the journey to that planet will take so long, that we cannot ever go in there by using regular rockets and technology. The thing is that this kind of planets are the most interesting if we are looking for the lifeforms, which are similar to us, and the problem with that kind of things is that the communicatio

Tunguska meteorite and the natural nuclear fission

  Image I Tunguska meteorite and the natural nuclear fission 1) Tunguska UFO-theory  Tunguska meteorite is the mystery, that has been solved once, but then the case has been open again because Lake Cheko was not suitable for an impact crater. That lake has been introducing as an impact crater of the Tunguska meteorite. But the problem is that the shape of that lake is like a swimming pool. And that means it cannot form by a meteorite. So the mystery remains.  Meteorites can launch the natural nuclear fission if they hit the uranium ore, and transfer the impact energy to that ore. And is the thing that the famous "Tunguska" meteorite caused that kind of effect? There is also a theory that some "UFO" explode in that area, but the thing is that it is only theory, but interesting topics for some TV-series.  So I will begin this text by handling that theory, which is one of the incredible and outstanding theories in the world. Officially there is no physical evidence of
