Long before there were machines to work out on and competitive sports to remain moving and before wars were being fought, man didn't think about conditioning as a means of keeping healthy. He simply knew if he didn't hunt, he wouldn't eat and when he didn't run, something would hunt him. They were tough times that focused simply on survival. We’ve been determined to create a more productive conversation and shared vision for improving competitiveness through decarbonisation and energy efficiency – and to get people on all sides to understand one another and be ready to play their part. I want to express my thanks to the British Glass staff who have made this happen.” Diesel engines are becoming the predominant power behind modern tractors simply because they have the highest thermal efficiency of the internal or external combustion engine, due to their higher than normal compression ratio. Unlike gasoline engines, the diesel engines in tractors use highly compressed hot air to ignite the fuel as opposed to spark plugs.
