    Incredible, they'll end up using hydrocarbons to make hydrogen, then using that to make . . . .hydrocarbons? Is this what people are talking about when they use the phrase "Circular Economy"?

    This could be their logo.

    Well, hello there...

    Is this what you are looking for?

    "Porsche thinks its synthetic gasoline, which it calls E-Fuel, could be as clean as an electric vehicle. First, it needs to prove that theory, and that starts this year. In fact, it starts today. The German company on Tuesday said drivers and their vehicles participating in the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup race series will be topped off with the renewable E-Fuel. The series kicks off today in Zandvoort, Netherlands, and the fuel will power the race cars through the whole season to test its performance and efficiency."

    Using the fuel proves nothing. Of course it's going to work.
    What they actually need to prove is that they can overcome the insurmountable quantity of energy consumed to produce this fuel and then claim that it was all "green".

    Which is highly unlikely.

    "The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents... some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the light into the peace and safety of a new Dark Age."

    I think I read that and it's also really airy fairy. They don't have the data to support their $9 estimate and they think this thing will be online in 2022. That's adorable.
