jmacken306 67 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 He needs to start with the Factories I don't see that many diesels, the factories are whats making all the buildings turn black and the burning of the garbage where the smoke stacks are no taller than our 10 story apartment three kilometers away and blows in our window when the wind is from the north. Spraying water and/or molasses in the air isn't going to do anything. I do have to agree with one person above, grilling downtown and not much wind to blow it away doesn't help. Thailand already has more LPG NPG....more ethanol vehicles than the USA that the USA could learn from Thai's and Thai's to learn from there 200 year old friends the USA about the factories......

tifino 8,786 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 are CNG powered trucks more economically viable? than Diesel if so, then apply Tax concessions in that direction trucking companies will only listen to something that ends up being cheaper for themselves Link to post Share on other sites
mikeoffenbach 124 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 is there enough green electric energy available in Thailand or will the smog just be moved elsewhere when we change to electric cars? Link to post Share on other sites

Sadly in the race to make money there has been no planning, what is the alternative to cars in the city at this time, public transport? There is no viable alternative at this time, realisticly there probably never will be either Link to post Share on other sites

Why doesnt he co-ordinate a country wide water spraying? if everybody in the country turns on their sprinkler systems or waters the garden at the same time that should effectively remove all the pollution in the air across the entire country Or maybe not, as they are just pi$$ing in the wind Link to post Share on other sites
tifino 8,786 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 what about water misting the factory towers? the sludge will then run back down for the factories to keep all for themselves to deal with! oh wait! - that is why they don't want to mist! Link to post Share on other sites

newnative 5,825 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 "...considered by the Cabinet..." Key word, considered. Today, I have considering losing weight. Just as unlikely to happen as anything the Cabinet 'considered'. And, there you have it, folks, today's talk, talk, talk. Stay tuned tomorrow to All Talk, No Action. Link to post Share on other sites

When Diesel first invented his engine which is what cars were originally designed to run on there was no concern about pollution. Today there are millions of diesel engines. Notice I didn't say cars. I had an opportunity to go aboard a WWII German submarine moored in Long Beach, California about 20 years ago. After 20 minutes I had a headache and could not breathe. Diesel engines are their own special kind of poison. Diesels came after steam in the maritime industry, now there is an interest in nuclear power for ships. Diesel advancements did not keep up with other internal combustion engines. It is some nasty foul stuff. If you're looking for evidenced based results. set up a table onside the road next to a truck yard let truck pass all day then eat the food while you continue to breathe that poison. Finally. A voice of reason in the diesel denial debate. Thank you for your intelligence, common sense, reason and facts. How many gasoline cars or pickups have you seen lately spewing massive clouds of black smoke? Take those horrific offenders off the road! Link to post Share on other sites
