Avalence LLC is an early stage company that has been formed to accelerate the production, promotion and sales of our low cost hydrogen generation appliance lines in order to make hydrogen fuel for fuel cell vehicles (automotive and marine) and home power devices immediately available to the average consumer.
The technology validation of our innovative Hydrofiller technology has been completed and we have filed our provisional patent application. Our next goal is to produce a fully functional engineering prototype. We are in the process of forming strategic alliances with key component and complimentary equipment manufacturers that will enable us to stage field demonstration projects.

Verdant Power, a sustainable energy company, is a systems integrator and a developer of free-flow hydro turbine systems that generate utility and village scale electric power from natural underwater currents. The Company’s systems do not require any water impoundments, such as dams, which greatly reduces environmental impact. In addition to delivering affordable and safe electrical energy, the systems can be adapted for developing other community-based services, such as irrigation, desalinization, creating potable water, oxygenating anoxic waters, and producing hydrogen through electrolysis.
Oil-Rich Abu Dhabi Builds Renewable-Energy City Published [05/09/2008]

In the United Arab Emirates, Abu Dhabi sits on nearly 10 percent of the world's oil reserves. So it may be surprising to hear that climate leaders there have launched a major initiative in sustainability called Masdar. The demonstration city of 50,000 inhabitants will have a zero carbon footprint.
Alternatives to ozone-depleting pesticide studied Published [05/09/2008]

Methyl bromide, an odorless, colorless gas used as an agricultural pesticide, was introduced in the 1980s as an effective way to control weeds and increase fruit yields. Agricultural production nurseries around the world relied on methyl bromide (MB) to produce healthy plants for export and domestic sales. In 2000, the widely used pesticide was classified as an ozone-depleting substance, and in 2005 MB was banned in the United States and all European Union countries.
University research contributes to global warming Published [05/09/2008]

Add university research to the long list of human activities contributing to global warming. Hervé Philippe, a Université de Montréal professor of biochemistry, is a committed environmentalist who found that his own research produces 44 tonnes of CO2 per year. The average American citizen produces 20 tonnes.
Global climate models both agree and disagree with actual Antarctic data Published [05/09/2008]

Scientists who compared recorded Antarctic temperatures and snowfall accumulation to predictions by major computer models of global climate change offer both good and bad news. The models’ predictions covering the last 50 years broadly follow the actual observed temperatures and snowfall for the southernmost continent, although the observations are very variable. That’s the good news.
High fuel prices could slash US emissions. Published [05/09/2008]
Source [New Scientist]
HIGH gasoline prices could lead to a dramatic saving in US greenhouse-gas emissions. That’s the conclusion of economists in the US, who suggest high fuel prices are turning consumers off SUVs and onto smaller, more fuel-efficient vehicles. What’s more, car owners are predicted to cut back on driving in order to save money. Together, these changes in consumer behaviour could make an important dent in the US contribution to global warming, reducing annual carbon dioxide emissions by tens of millions of tonnes per year. The impact will be dramatic, says Chris Knittel, an economist at the University of California, Davis, who was involved in one of the studies.
