You can research some more in those two sites (especially in sciencedirect.com, you can filter by open studies if you are broke like me). Source: 12 months ago

That's incorrect. You also need to get some better sources. EPA.gov, the ICCT report, and sciencedirect.com are highly political institutions. Source: about 1 year ago

First of all, sciencedirect.com is not a peer reviewed science site. it gets a 2 out of 4 stars when rated by actual scientists. Source: over 1 year ago

The source "sciencedirect.com" is at the end of the quote and you can easily do your own research but you won't. Also the point is to show the hypocrisy that people accept random standards like that because you're programmed to. Source: almost 2 years ago

You might want to look at building a passive solar water heater. According to sciencedirect.com, "passive solar water heating systems generally transfer heat by natural circulation as a result of buoyancy due to temperature difference between two regimes; hence they do not require pumps to operate. They are the most commonly used solar water heating systems for domestic application." They are non-electric. Source: almost 2 years ago

You also will find a ton of contemporary (and copyright free) books on https://books.google.com/ in many languages, which I find way more amazing to read today than books looking back on that time with today's mindset and all...

Searching for "google books" in google leads to https://books.google.com/ which no longer allows you to read any of your books. https://play.google.com/books is the site to read your purchased books now. Google search does not show https://play.google.com/books in its results at all.

Please use google https://google.com , https://groups.google.com , news.google.com/newspapers, books.google.com, scholar.google.com , https://archive.org https://yandex.com (the only image reverse search which actually works, google's got broken). Source: 7 months ago

I have no idea why, but ever since this new update, Chrome has become completely unusable. Every single search I make only retrieves books.google.com links. Nothing near relevant to what I want. I am not sure how to fix this issue. All help is greatly appreciated! Source: 8 months ago
