How are cars currently being run?

• The cars we drive today are run by the burning of
  fossil fuels.
• This means that hydrogen in fuel cells is being
  burned in order to extract the energy needed to
  start your cars engine.

3
Why should this current method be replaced?

• There are a couple of reasons.
• The burning of fossil fuels is known to pollute
  the atmosphere with carbon dioxide, a natural
  atmospheric gas, but in excess, will vastly speed
  up our Earths warming system known as the
  Greenhouse Effect.
• Gasoline is an expensive energy resource

4
How can water replace gasoline?

• The newest innovation in running vehicles at a
  low cost is by using hydrogen a part of H2O.
• Ordinary water is called a battery in which
  lays vast amounts of energy, because of its
  hydrogen content.

5
How is the energy of this water battery
extracted?

• All that is needed is an economical means of
  breaking down this water particle, which will
  extract its energy.
• A small company in Toronto, Canada has discovered
  an answer

Rothman Technologies

• This company, called Rothman Technologies has
  discovered that combining water, salt, and a
  metal alloy creates pure hydrogen, a fuel that
  can be used to run vehicles!

7
How is this economical?

• Using the method of Rothman Technologies, the
  only ingredients necessary are water, sea salt
  and a metal alloy
• Eliminating the need to add salt to water,
  seawater can be used as the primary fuel!
• The metal alloy used to extract the hydrogen gas
  from salt water happens to be extremely
  inexpensive to obtain!! In fact, an engine can
  run for four hours on a piece that would cost
  about half a cent! (Canadian).
