How in the world did a conversation about the idiocy of the anti-EV agenda amongst the locals turn into a social political point about women's rights versus men's?
Probably from the silly world view that if something doesn't have to do with party affiliation or voting, then it couldn't be political.

Exactly Mr T.

I first purchased TSLA in Oct 18.

'Tesla will not be able to cover its 240 million repayment in feb 19' they said.

BULLSHIT ! My lesson on how the media lies. Easily met its commitments and some.

I then Watched it drop in 19, but to the stars in late 2020.

Now in recession. its only 15 times more.!

Watch it springboard again

Escalating benchmarks - From 'Legacy' to Apple to Tesla on steroids

(Off topic) You know what's also missing in the second photo? As many pedestrians. The automobile takes up more space per person moved, which made crowding along the sidewalks worse. When they switched from streetcars to busses, this got even worse...

...some times advances have trade offs, and in many a downtown and village we forgot to leave room for the majority of road-users.

This started happening during the Covid Pandemic. Ventura main street has been closed to cars until 2024 now. Here's an article about how this happened all over the US. https://foothilldragonpress.org/272...ow-the-pandemic-has-changed-downtown-america/

Hopefully we get to keep more of these car-free or car-limited streets.

I love cars, but they really aren't so great to take up all the space in the out of doors with! It's one of the reasons I live in a neighborhood where the street is one lane and you can walk to the store or bus. Even though it's rural.

It'd be nice if we put as much effort into maintaining the non-car paths. The bridge into town has been dismantled for decades and is still sitting in the park, waiting for money to put it back - but the county paid to repair half the road on the other side leading to a single mansion with its gate. The rest of the road is barely passable on foot. That was the original entrance to town!

The latest one I have seen
The misspelled words are great.

Better yet, nuclear is about as close to carbon 0 as you can get long term. Do they think oil just appears out of thin air?

You need to include embodied energy and contruction emissions. Every man-made activity produces carbon emissions, its just a question of how much.

Nuclear requires tons and tons of building materials - and so like hydro, has this incredible front-loaded carbon cost.

Weirdly they forget the carbon load involved to create every gallon of gas from the ground.

Funny thing about concrete is while it is being made curing it first gives off a crap ton of CO2, then starts absorbing it. They had a problem with that during the earth ship experiments. That and the diurnal cycle of the plants.
