#week15reflection

I recently read the article Emily posted about how Audi just found a way to create diesel fuel made from air and water. The process is actually quite intriguing. You start by taking electricity from renewable energy sources, such as wind, water, and solar, and using it to produce hydrogen from water. The hydrogen is then mixed with CO2 that has been converted into CO. This “blue crude” is then refined into synthetic e-diesel. I think this is incredible. We have been trying to find new ways to fuel automobiles while being eco-friendly and I think this is a groundbreaking step in the overall process of decreasing our carbon footprint.
