Amazing human world on Climate Change: love to whine and act victims ! Pay lip service, rhetoric preferred; wantonly ignore simple actionable but disruptive solutions !

Amazed that the leaders emphasize fear more than spending a few minutes at least to examine & mention support initiatives to easily arrest climate change using eternal omnipresent gravity powered systems. May be this disrupts entire fossil fuel based economy? No need to mine coal nor extract oil, if you accept this solution .  That’s not acceptable ?  Check :  May request for your support for eliminating fossil fuels for energy generation, eliminate chemical battery power storage and save up to 70% electrical energy in transport, conserve land in infrastructure development by invoking the fourth fundamental and enigmatic gravity force.  Peer reviewed papers summarising the work done, ASCE too published (APM2011) as well as some YouTube videos links I submit.  1.  https://drive.google.com/ file/d/ 0BwHemx70oqnEejRZWDJoUU9vRXE4b nlVNVJxaHFjWTc5Nlln/view?usp= drivesdk 2. https://drive.google.com/file/ d/ 0BwHemx70oqnENzlwNnpHdjRHV...

We can make nuclear reators safer..

A conceptual outline design of reactor container vessel module set taking in to account the recent incident in Japan. Engr. B Rajaram M.Tech.,F.I.E., F.N.A.E. IRSE (Retd.) Disasters are natural and unavoidable. With the best of estimates of risks, still a case may arise as in case of Fukushima Japan in 2011, when extraordinary and unprecedented natural disaster occurs, even the best of human designs can give away. The nuclear reactor case is different from other infrastructure cases. Normal non-nuclear infrastructure or related equipment like bridges, roads, trains or air craft or a ship can cause damage limited to the event. But in case of nuclear reactor , as is seen the radiation hazard and uncontrollable process melting down the core, create situations leading even to quick abandonment safely of the reactor. The containment of radiation becomes a primary concern. Spread by air/water of the radiation has got to be minimised. A proposal hence is made to construct the r...

ASCE and relevance to society-a note to President of ASCE

Dear Mr President, welcome! I am worried the path ASCE is taking. A solution to save 98.5% of man made energy in transportation is being denied publication in our Journal on Transportation Engineering! It is a disservice to the members of ASCE to be denied an opportunity to be the first to share a breakthrough development by one of their members. Now they will have to read from some other journals. USA needs urgent solution to make us energy independent, and economic down turn can be addressed with such energy saving transportation solution like Gravity Powered Urban Rail! It is not a joke to be able to save 98 to 70% of man-made energy , replacing the same with gravity power, while using the existing infrastrutire too. I am intrigued as a very senior civil engineering professional with enough professional work reported all round the world, and not needing an endorsement at this stage in my life, what our society is looking for- to be unconcerned with current problems of scoiety makes ...
