48C-MAN,You can find lots of different ones on the internet here,maybe Mother Earth News.I know they have plans for an oil burner on there,I printed it out and a still to make ethanol.
As for JCH,you know Ive seen us go from burning wood to coal to kerosene to propane,now that I live in town,natural gas.The big reason that there is arguing about what we burn for heat is this,electric companies burn everything from coal to jet fuel or natural gas,tell me how much ends up in the atmosphere?All that they burn.Now electric companies want the natural gas,so what does it leave for us to burn?Thats why the prices are so high,and heat seems to be something that the people in charge think is secondary to big companies.You might not even have a choice where you live,and people like you trying to get it where you cannot burn wood is stupid.
I bet when you dont have anything else to burn wood will be a lot better than zero in your house.
The plain and simple facts are everybody cannot use electricity or the price we all pay will be a lot higher,plus in an ice storm like we are in now in the midwest we would freeze.
You can hug your trees but you dont need to even think you are going to make anybody else hug them.We will burn anything to stay warm,so will you,and just be thankfull that when we burn stuff now,most of the time its way more efficient than it was for thousands of years before us.Smog is less than it was and theres a lot more cars on the road.Acid rain you dont hear about as much because we dont have a big steel industry anymore.That we dont have a steel industry like we did is very bad for us.Smokestacks dont put out the same pollution as they did because of advances in technology,baghouses,scrubbers,and some kind of electrical device that knocks pollutants out of the smoke.Now that we have all that stuff,I hope the steel industry comes back.
If you feel a need to instruct people on what they should do while hugging your tree,why dont you tell these politicians to quit flying all over the place in airplanes,they burn way more fuel than I can even imagine,and for what?
Also if we burned ethanol in our cars instead of gas,I bet that it would cut the bad stuff out of the air even more,and out of the water too,as most of the additives thats put in gas have been found poisoning our water we drink.
Lots has been done,sure allways more can be done,but your griping at people who have little ability to do anything about it makes you look dumb.If you are so smart,use your brain to make more efficient use of something,rather than fill your head with useless statistics.It may not sound like it now,but some day you will realize we are all on the same side here.We want the Earth to be as healthy as possible,but what do you treehuggers do about volcanos or meteorites,comets,collisions with other planets,the Sun.I think all of those can surely hurt our planet much worse than man can,dont you?

Today's Featured Article - Talk of the Town: The Saga of Grandpa's Tractor - by The following saga is from the Tractor Talk Discussion Forum. Someone. The saga starts with the following message: Hey guys I have a decision to make. I know what you all will probably suggest and it will probably agree with me way down inside, but here it is. I have a picture blown up and framed in my "tractor room" of a Farmall M. It was my Grandpa's tractor, of which whom I never got to meet. He froze to death getting this tractor out of the barn to pull a truck out of the ditch before I was born. Anyway my dad and aunt had to sell it at the auction, ... [Read Article]
