Travelstyle was a computer assisted typo. Didn't catch it. Sometimes I think my autocorrect just like to screw around for amusement's sake.
Hang in there 10 more years, and you'll see it. Heck, you might be seeing it in half that time. 67 is still fairly young these days! Younger than I am!
And your infantile F Trump face mask and consistently "limp expressions" in many of your posts expose you as an ideologue.
I'll be on board when long promised aluminum ion batteries are being used in EVs and plug in hybrids, if they live up to claims (rather than proposals for new lithium ion battery factories). At some point I'd probably consider a plug in hybrid but my current ICE SUV and (diesel) truck are super reliable with combined mileage of over 360,000 miles and do everything I ask of them including a 500+ mile single tank range for the truck. Last time I filled up the truck it took <5 minutes to fill while I cleaned the windows. I had driven over 450 miles and still had 1/4 tank of fuel left in the tank. I'm not interested in having to "chill" at a charge station waiting for an EV to charge as in a previous post.
No…I’m not an ideologue…just an old service-connected vet farmer, well educated despite my dirty hands, living amongst creationists, seditionists, Hardcore Trumpists…well YOU get the picture. Unfortunately the country I love is being destroyed by weaponized ignorance wielded by a traitorous grifter. This quote made half a century ago is more true than ever.
That's about the sum of it for the majority of people I talk to here in Australia. Cheaper cars, better range and faster and more plentiful charging will address a lot of the anxiety around EV's. V2G is also a non-negotiable for our household to consider an EV if and when the time comes to replace our car. There's always going to be holdouts, as there are with those that insist on owning, say, manual transmissions, big capacity muscle cars, etc. And, as maligned as they are in some political circles, it's also policy decisions like in California, much of the EU and locally in several Australian states that move the needle forward in terms of cost and infrastructure. I'm optimistic about the shift.
Dude electric vehicles require Gas /oil/coal to be made . How we going to fly anywhere . Or talk online ? Electric as a total way of life won't happen because we don't have the infrastructure to support it . The govt's worldwide are putting the cart before the horse.
The elephant in the room is the fact that petrochemical industry rides on the back of the petrofuel industry. Only 15% percent of a barrel of crude oil is used for petrochemicals, which in turn are used to make anything from plastic to make-up to medicine. As the need for petrofuel declines, more and more of the burden for production, distribution, and refinement of crude oil will fall on the petrochemical industry. Basic economics will dictate that the costs of petrochemicals will increase.
Can you name me a Green energy part . That goes into electric or solar anything that doesn't require traditional power sources to produce the parts ? I have no problem with battery operated vehicles . What I have a Problem with is cutting off the old before the New is anywhere near solvent . All based on a lie that Human's are destroying the planet with fossil fuels . One volcano spewing ash creates more carbon emissions then all humans have throughout all time . Not to mention that what happened with Nordstream released 1000 times more environmental green house gases . Then we could do with Fossil fuel for a million lifetimes . This is my problem . The technology is great and Impressive . Butttt the politics and narrative forcing us in that direction seemingly overnight is all based on lies ,
Be wary of your sources. One is a publication with a reputation for pushing fringe views, the other a partisan blog. Which is fine. But not evidence of rife disagreement on the topic among the scientific community.
It links to the NASA report. I'm always cautious about what Principia says. Not for your reason, but because I am aware of some of their errors and overstatements.
Which is actually a problem and one sign of that scientific field's almost 100% political corruption, which is not a blessing.
