The US Navy is turning seawater into fuel. Scientists at the US Naval Research Lab have been able to extract CO2 and hydrogen from the ocean and repackage it in a form of fuel that could one day power the Navy’s fleet.
As it plies the world’s oceans, the US Navy consumes 1.3 billion gallons of fuel per year. It’s expensive, environmentally damaging and, being derived from oil, a finite source of power. But now, scientists at the Navy’s Research Lab outside Washington, DC, say they’ve come up with an alternative they call “game changing”. They’ve found a way to make fuel from seawater.

Sounds like a great idea, and about time we all stopped living in the dark ages. Oil causes wars and pollution , it would be nice if they could extract the same properties from tha air around us ?
