An unassuming rear hatch for the most part, but you're quickly informed of this EV's nonpolluting pedigree.

A larger group uses them as quiet, nonpolluting, human-powered tools for managing their gardens and recreational areas.
|

Duke Energy is committed to making 5 percent of its fleet nonpolluting, said Randy Wheeless, a company spokesman.
|
|
The bulk of that electricity would, in turn, come from nonpolluting sources: wind, solar and, yes, probably nuclear.
|
|
Those resources will remain there until science finds a way to use those fossil fuels in sustainable, nonpolluting ways.
|
|
Those tend to spike when oil prices rise, so enthusiasm for nonpolluting, nonwarming energies of the future could wane.
|
|
Offenders were fined 90 euros, or around $100, for entering the restricted zone, unless their vehicle was electric or certified as nonpolluting.
|
|
The other half, the officials said, would come from the private sector, with the state encouraging renewable, nonpolluting energy sources like wind, solar and hydropower.
|
|
Meanwhile, clean activities like buying power from solar panels or wind turbines, or driving an electric car, say, would save consumers money, since nonpolluting activities wouldn't be taxed.

|
Asked whether she would shift the European Central Bank's strategy to focus on buying bonds of nonpolluting companies, Ms. Lagarde was noncommittal but promised to review the situation.
|
|
A retreat from the climate movement would imperil our competitiveness as other countries seek to lead the pivot toward nonpolluting energy — and to dominate clean energy markets and the global energy conversation.

Op-Ed Contributor It's hard to think of a tougher challenge than accelerating humanity's transition to nonpolluting energy sources and limiting global warming, especially in a world with abundant fossil fuels and fast-growing energy needs.

Supporters of a carbon fee say the state's extensive base of renewable, nonpolluting energy makes it the perfect laboratory to test efforts like this, because the economic impact would be less dramatic than in big coal states like West Virginia or Kentucky.

As of right now, this technology seems to be nonpolluting and low maintenance, it does not have any major impact on the wildlife such as fish and other animals. This environmentally friendly technology is still in research stage and is currently undergoing optimization experiments before it can be implemented.

However, A. borkumensis presents a possible alternative. Since A. borkumensis naturally breaks down oil molecules to a nonpolluting state, it would help ecosystems to quickly recover from an oil spill disaster. The organisms also naturally grow in oil-contaminated seawater, thus are a native species. If the process A. borkumensis uses to break down oil could be sped up or made more efficient, this would aid recovering ecosystems.

The volcanic properties of Valles Caldera make it a likely source for renewable and nonpolluting geothermal energy. However, some people oppose the development of geothermal energy, considering it destructive to its scenic beauty, recreational and grazing use. Its impact on the hot springs and supplying aquifers is unknown as experiences from other past geothermal projects proved that production of reservoir fluids had dramatic impacts to the surface thermal features.Goff, Fraser (2002-12).

The economy of Monaco is reliant on tourism and banking. Monaco, situated on the French coast of the Mediterranean Sea, is a popular resort, attracting tourists to its casino and pleasant climate. The Principality has successfully sought to diversify into services and small, high-value-added, nonpolluting industries. The state has no income tax and low business taxes and thrives as a tax haven both for individuals who have established residence and for foreign companies that have set up businesses and offices.

The heated up water upon de-pressurization at the surface turns to steam which is then used to power steam turbines for electricity generation. The plant is being further expanded to provide geothermal heating to areas in Ardabil Province for both domestic as well as industrial purposes. As power plant is situated in touristic Sabalan area, it is also hoped the nonpolluting nature of the plant will help to preserve the nature and attract more tourism to the area. In long term, Iran plans to use the gained experience with this power plant in installation of up to 12 other geothermal stations in the country.

As of 2009, there were at least 200 craftsmen in the trade in the town with a yearly production value of about 500,000 pesos. The production has caused environmental damage as trees are stripped for bark and chemicals from the process such as caustic soda make their way into the San Pedro River. There have been efforts to plant and grow new types of trees that provide back in 5 or 6 years as well as the introduction of nonpolluting chemicals. View inside the Relojes Centenario clock factory Xochitlán and Zacatlán produce hard apple cider and various fruit wines with a sugar cane liquor called “aguardiente” widely produced although illegal.

The District's three hydroelectric generating projects have a combined total generating capacity of over 2,000 megawatts of hydropower, advantageous because of its low-cost, nonpolluting, and renewable nature. The three produce about 9 million megawatt-hours of power each year, enough to meet the needs of a city of more than 900,000. 37 percent of the total generating capacity is needed to meet the needs of its Chelan County customers, including a portion of Alcoa's power-intensive Wenatchee aluminum smelter. The remaining 63 percent of the total generating capacity is mainly sold to four principal power purchasers: Puget Sound Energy, Avista Corporation, PacifiCorp, and Portland General Electric Company transmitted throughout the Pacific Northwest over a grid of high-voltage transmission lines.

He is noted for riding bicycles and using public transportation, and owns a 2003 Toyota RAV4 EV electric-powered vehicle. Begley's hybrid electric bicycle was often featured on his television show Living With Ed. Begley also spoofed his own environmentalist beliefs on "Homer to the Max", an episode of The Simpsons by showing himself using a nonpolluting go-kart that is powered by his "own sense of self-satisfaction" and on an episode of Dharma and Greg. Later, he appeared in "Gone Maggie Gone", another episode of The Simpsons, in Season 20. In the episode, during a solar eclipse, he drives a solar-powered car that stops running on train tracks as a train approaches, but the train also stops because it is an Ed Begley Jr. Solar Powered Train.

Ikard served as the executive vice president of American Petroleum Institute from 1962 to 1963 and as president from 1963 to 1980. He spoke during the Annual Meeting of the American Petroleum Institute 1965 and stated: > This report unquestionably will fan emotions, raise fears, and bring demands > for action. The substance of the report is that there is still time to save > the world's peoples from the catastrophic consequence of pollution, but time > is running out. > One of the most important predictions of the report is that carbon dioxide > is being added to the atmosphere by the burning of coal, oil, and natural > gas at such a rate that by the year 2000 the heat balance will be so > modified as possibly to cause marked changes in climate beyond local or even > national efforts. The report further states, and I quote: > “… the pollution from internal combustion engines is so serious, and is > growing so fast that an alternative nonpolluting means of powering > automobiles, buses, and trucks is likely to become a national necessity.” > Ikard, F. N. Meeting the challenges of 1966.
