Urine Saves The Planet


Why are we always the last to get this great stuff? I want this car...I need this car! Apparently this technology is being used all over Europe too! What are we chopped liver? This car runs on deisel fuel which is far more efficient mileage wise...very good. But it's crap for the environment...until now. This new exhaust system is fueled by URINE! Which cleans up the exhaust from your deisel engine and makes it much cleaner environmentally. Just how you use a biohazard to clean the environment is a mystery to me but let's ask Al Gore, he'll know for sure.

How cool is that? Cheaper to fuel, green power. AND you get to tell everyone that your car is pee powered!

Long road trip? No problem..pack the snacks AND plenty of drinks, your Go Girl, fill the deisel tank and away you go, no worries!

You can read the full story at The Age but really, what more do you need to know?

Wow, what an awesome car! I want one! I wonder, would this eliminate (no pun intended) the need for pee stops?

What will they think of next?..lol..but I want one too.

There are so many great cars out there in Europe. Sometimes it takes forever to make it out West.

I'd take one!

Technology is amazing isn't it? Wonder how they researched that exhaust system? Interesting. It's a cool looking car though!

If it makes you feel any better, we bet that NZ is the VERY last to get it (as is true with everything good!) heehee!

I wonder what it smells like.

Ann said...

Very cool looking car. I have to wonder if the discovery was made one night when they were all sitting around after work slamming down so beers.

Jude said...

I was thinking what Vange was about the smell. Some urine stinks and stale urine is enough to make you gag. Of course I could go read the article and find out more. Have a good weekend.

Oh my God, guess their might be something positive now in regards to drinking and driving (not alcohol silly).

See that crazy astronaut that wore Depends to drive to Texas should have bought this car, what a waste, lol

JD at I Do Things said...

I think I might hate being stuck behind this car if it was letting off a lot of exhaust.

AND! Now I can't get the image of random men just pulling over, unzipping, and filling up their tank. Do we need that?

Staci at Just Bloggled said...

See, I knew my tiny bladder would come in handy on a roadtrip one day. See if my sister and nephew make fun of "Staci-itis" (their term for the small bladder) now. Can they power their own car? Maybe, but not as easily as me.

Just when you think they've thought of everything, they come up with something else. I wonder if it still passes an emissions test.

Um, we're a family of 5... We've got plenty to use!
Pee powered... LOL!
You're right... Potty breaks on road trips have a whole new meaning!

Sandy said...

We're always the last to know! Not fair.

I think I could be the sole source of our driving!
