Aniversario Huracán María
Le escribo a todos hoy porque es el aniversario del Huracán María, el cual causó unas 3,057 muertes.
¿Por qué murieron tantas personas durante los meses de septiembre a diciembre del 2017?
Simple: Se rompió la cadena de suministro de combustible.
Recordemos que las filas eternas en las gasolineras duraron meses.
Por eso la importancia del RFS-2 (Renewable Fuel Standard 2.0)
Un incentivo de la EPA que SOLO puede solicitar el gobernador, según el Código de Regulaciones Federales.
Alejandro García Padilla hizo parte de su campaña y su plan de gobierno el solicitar este incentivo, pero nunca lo hizo.
Piénsalo boricua... piensa.
ESTA ES LA RAZÓN POR LA CUAL MURIERON TANTAS PERSONAS - CON ESTE INCENTIVO NO SE HUBIESE ROTO LA CADENA DE SUMINISTRO DE COMBUSTIBLES, YA QUE EL MISMO NOS BRINDA SEGURIDAD ENERGÉTICA AL CREAR LA INDUSTRIA DE LOS BIOCOMBUSTIBLES - LA CUAL NO EXISTE EN PR.
Si en las escuelas que visitaba, los niños entendían que por cada combustible fósil, existe un combustible limpio y alterno, porque los políticos no entienden? Por ejemplo: el diesel, tiene el biodiesel, que sale del aceite de freír, el gas propano tiene el biogás que sale de los restos de comida (la basura), la gasolina tiene el etanol.
Con el RFS-2 resolvemos el problema hasta de la basura sin quemarla! Esto es grande pero es más fácil reestructurar la deuda para robarse el dinero que reestructurar el país para brindarnos mejor calidad de vida.
Hay que hacer una transición y de lo único que se habla es de energía renovable en el grid eléctrico, pero que pasa con los biocombustibles. La planta eléctrica es el Plan B de todo el mundo, hasta del que tiene placas solares. Entonces, porque no proteger la cadena de suministro de combustible?
Vean la promesa de campaña falsa que hizo por escrito AGP en una carta firmada cuando era senador diciendo que iba a firmar este incentivo y nunca lo hizo pero 3,000 muertes después lo veo en televisión como analista politico con Rivera Schatz y o que dan es ganas de llorar.
¿EN QUÉ QUEDÓ ESTA MENTIRA?
Por otra parte, Pedro Pierluisi supuestamente aboga por la equidad, porque su política pública para los puertorriqueños es una de igualdad con los ciudadanos americanos para el Medicare y Medicaid,
¡PERO TAMPOCO SOLICITA EL RFS-2, EL CUAL EXISTE EN LOS 50 ESTADOS!
Tenemos hasta el 31 de octubre para que el gobernador lo solicite si queremos que entre en vigor en enero 1 del 2022 y no quedar al descubierto la próxima temporada de huracanes. Pierluisi, le rindes tu lealtad al cartel del petróleo a cambio de donaciones jugositas para el PNP? Tranquilo Pierluisi, lo mismo pasa en el PPD, verdad Agapito?

Cryptocurrency and the Environment
I’ve been hearing lately how cryptocurrency is bad for the environment after Elon Musk decided to reject the use of Bitcoin at Tesla Inc. This is because the high energy consumption from crypto-mining, or the creation of new crypto-coins, produces high levels of CO2 emissions. But what about mining the minerals to produce real coins? Or cryptocurrencies such like Helium, which people can mine at home using a proof of coverage algorithm that only consumes 5 volts of energy!? Each Helium Token is valued at over $20.00 USD compared to the Euro or the US Dollar. Also, is anyone calculating the energy consumed by the billions of digital transactions in the traditional banking systems today?
After all these questions, it has started to dawn on me how many industries are bad for the environment. For example, unsustainable logging or industrial fishing. Maybe you can think of another fifty industries that are way more harmful for the environment. But when we say it, their value does not drop like Bitcoin did when Elon Musk rejected it. That is simply unacceptable ant very irresponsible from Elon's part. According to the EIA: “Within the industrial sector, manufacturing accounts for the largest share of annual industrial energy consumption, generally followed by mining, construction, and agriculture.”
Since we are discussing the problem of energy consumption in crypto, we can look the aluminum industry for a great example because it consumes vast amounts of energy too. Now, ask yourself: Where is most of the world’s aluminum produced? Many of you probably thought of places with cheap labor or cheap energy. Well, both! But the aluminum industry ranges from China, India, Russia, Canada, United Arab Emirates, Australia, Bahrain, Norway, USA, and Iceland – because they all have low energy production costs, but Iceland has two advantages: thermal and hydro, which are cost-effective RENEWABLE energy sources.
Therefore, the problem is not energy consumption, but the sources of energy being used: fossil fuels and coal. Cryptocurrency markets have no choice where the energy comes from because block-chains are mostly operating in decentralized servers and computers scattered around the world. Although, some of them are operating under centralized systems (clusters of computer servers) owned and operated by one entity in one building, where investors own part of a concrete business. And there lays the solution: The people.
Why? Because we are the ones who invest in these operations, either from home or in large data-centers, and NOTHING is stopping ANYONE from going green. This is all because solar and other renewable technologies like wind, are cheaper than grid dependent fossil fuel electricity for the first time in modern world history. To explain, if you are going to have a bitcoin miner at home, then install solar panels or any other type of renewable energy source. If you are a businessman, again, use renewable energy in your datacenter for your servers.
To prove my point, let’s look at how energy is managed for data storage in Microsoft, Google or Facebook.
The other day I read that Microsoft announced it will open 100 data-centers in 2021, and they will run on renewable solar energy. They can do it because it’s a concrete business with buildings, just like banks! Then, banks can go green because they are concrete buildings! Plus, they use an extremely dirty currency which has to be physically mined from mother Earth to make coins from gold, silver, nickel, and copper alloys? So, will MR. ELON MUSK reject their dirty currencies too?
Since there is no concrete Crypto Bank, cryptocurrency is not at fault for consuming either dirty energy or even high amounts of energy. Just like Helium Tokens, there are many other cryptocurrencies that can be mined with low amounts of energy.
Then again, why hate on crypto Mr. Musk? You sell solar batteries and crypto feeds the poor in many countries where the national currency is worthless. Like Venezuela’s national currency, which just went aesthetic surgery to remove FIVE ZEROS in order to gain value before the release of the new electronic Bolivar. And just like that Venezuela and China have released their own cryptocurrency! (It helps with inflation.)
If cryptocurrency and the banking systems both use centralized energy sources derived from fossil fuels, we have to create a system that uses decentralized clean power generation for everyone. It’s clear that cryptocurrency threatens the establishment, meaning the centralized banking system and centralized governments, especially those with stagnant currencies. The problem is that when you destabilize weak Country, turmoil will ensue.
Look at El Salvador, who’s pro-active president Nayib Bukele announced his country is going crypto. But, due to a covert leftist propaganda lead by the opposition to discredit the President , people are fighting this week against the implementation of a cryptocurrency that will help them! This will help Salvadoran people living in the US who send “remesas” or money to families in their native land. It also helps Salvadoran business owners in El Salvador and even traveling immigrants on their way to the US, because instead of getting robbed of their cash money, now they can go crypto. If their phone is stolen, they can recover their account with the twelve-word safety system used by most crypto-wallets.
In developing countries, crypto-coins are helping small business sell their goods around the world. AGAIN, why is one of the richest businessmen in the WORLD dissing on crypto, the poor, and people like you and me, the citizens of the world who need decentralized power systems. Look at the people of Puerto Rico, who lost 3,000 lives after hurricane María in 2017 because of a massive power outage, a broken fuel supply chain and a non-existent biofuel industry. It’s ironic that it is the man with the answer, and now most of the solar lithium battery market is fighting Bitcoin.
Let me explain, when we buy a Tesla home battery system, or any renewable powered lithium battery, we are supporting decentralized power, which hurts the banking establishment and the government’s investments in coal or energy form derived from oil and fossil fuels. And, if you want loans to travel to Mars, who will fund you? BANKS and GOVERNMENTS!
Remember, this is mainly a tug of war between we the people, who support decentralization and governments that support centralized systems, for currency, banking, energy, education, etc. Remember, just like former US President Donald J. Trump said: “We have done some things for him, now he has to do some things for us.” (The 'him' and 'he' was referring to Elon Musk.)
Now, cobalt and lithium mining are certainly more damaging when compared to cryptocurrency, and clearly, cryptocurrency has a future. The question is: Will banks, governments and people adapt? Idea: A good place for banks to start transitioning into cryptocurrency is developing countries because they mostly use micro-loans for community coops and rural development. In these cases, there is a lower investment risk and you help the people who are most in need.
Decentralized block chains that generate Crypto are here to stay, and so are decentralized energy systems, and decentralized education systems… especially after the pandemic, and they all hurt the establishment. Honestly, ask yourself where do you want to invest your assets? With the water and food crisis that looms ahead, is buying a Tesla a good investment?
Let’s send a message to Mr. Musk and the Tesla owners: This is no way to save the environment. It’s simple, with all the luxuries that are built-in ONE Tesla car, they could have built three cheaper Tesla cars and sell them for more profit. But they decided to cater the rich, and that will be the main reason for their demise, as other companies will build cheaper and better eco-friendlier cars.
Do you want to join the crypto revolution? There is a free way to start mining a cryptocurrency called Helium (or HNT) without consuming vast amounts of energy.
