Figure 4. A picture of frequent environmental disasters caused by <strong>the</strong> spill of crude oil from<br />

tankers following accidents. The replacement of crude oil <strong>with</strong> a gaseous fuel will eliminate <strong>the</strong><br />

environmental damage, <strong>with</strong> <strong>the</strong> exception of hydrogen because, in <strong>the</strong> event <strong>the</strong> cargo of this<br />

tanker had been composed of hydrogen, its release in <strong>the</strong> atmosphere, its immediate rising to<br />

<strong>the</strong> ozone layer, and its very rapid reaction <strong>with</strong> O 3 would create a hole in <strong>the</strong> ozone layer of<br />

<strong>the</strong> size of <strong>the</strong> State of Rhode Island, <strong>with</strong> consequential increase of skin and o<strong>the</strong>r cancers on<br />

Earth (see Section 1.3 <strong>for</strong> details).<br />

have gone so far as to establish that breast cells are very receptive to a particular<br />

carcinogenic substance in fossil fuel exhaust. After all, responsible citizens<br />

should remember and propagate (ra<strong>the</strong>r than myopically suppress) <strong>the</strong> fact that<br />

<strong>the</strong> U. S. Environmental Protection Agency has <strong>for</strong>mally admitted that diesel exhaust<br />

is carcinogenic. A moment of reflection is sufficient <strong>for</strong> anybody in good<br />

faith to see that we inhale on a daily basis carcinogenic substances from gasoline<br />

exhaust in an amount that is ten thousands times bigger than carcinogenic<br />

substances ingested <strong>with</strong> food.<br />

This is ano<strong>the</strong>r serious environmental problem that has remained virtually<br />

ignored by all until recently due to <strong>the</strong> widespread misin<strong>for</strong>mation by <strong>the</strong> <strong>new</strong>smedia.<br />

However, <strong>the</strong> existence of this third major environmental problem caused<br />

by fossil fuel combustion has now propagated to environmental, union and o<strong>the</strong>r<br />

circles <strong>with</strong> predictable legal implications <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong> fossil fuel industry and its ma-
