… Yet, the environmental harms of electric vehicles have been well documented: mining for the materials to make the batteries causes devastation to local ecosystems. Their production is also harmful to the people who live where they are built, leading to increased toxicity levels compared to traditional car manufacturing.

Even their emission reductions are modest. In provinces that use renewable energy, like Manitoba, electric cars reduce emissions by 70 per cent, but in most places in the world where electricity still mainly comes from fossil fuels, that number falls to 30 per cent.

Takeaway: EV’s are pretty much useless but we should build em anyway.

California will suffer an energy shortage and “Flex Alerts” through Labor Day due to high temperatures, and residents will be asked to conserve electricity during afternoons and evenings, which means refraining from charging electric vehicles, among other uses.

October will bring shock for many in Britain.

At the start of the month, U.K. residents will see an 80 per cent increase in their annual household energy bills, the country’s energy regulator announced earlier this month, following a record 54 per cent spike in April. That will bring costs for the average customer to 3,549 pounds ($5,418) a year from 1,971 pounds ($3,009).

Only the very naïve think we will soon end our dependence on autos

Canadian drivers are experiencing a double dose of frustration this summer: record gas prices combined with a return to the pre-COVID traffic congestion that for years now has been making it so hard to get around our major cities. When green governments aren’t cavalierly dismissing the exasperating inconvenience to drivers they’re actually embracing it as a strategy for getting people to switch to mass transit. Trouble is, businesses bear the brunt of congestion costs. Estimates are that up to 40 per cent of traffic consists of commercial vehicles. Businesses count on timely deliveries to keep their factories supplied and shelves stocked and to satisfy burgeoning consumer demand for home delivery. For most firms, mass transit is simply not an option. When traffic chronically snarls their only alternative is to move everything but delivery out of city centres.

Between droughts, flooding and rainstorms, Canada’s changing climate could lead to a significant decrease in the country’s GDP over the next generation, according to a report from engineering firm GHD.

The impact of water-related risks in Canada could mean a cumulative loss of $139 billion through 2050, or 0.2 per cent of economic activity in that period, the report says. Titled “Aquanomics,” the report examines the impact of future water risks across seven countries, including Canada, the U.K., the U.S., Australia, China, the Philippines and the U.A.E.

Seems the authors of this piece may have a monetary interest in “remediation.” Has even one of the climate cult’s prophecies come to be?

America would have to install 30 million electronic vehicle charging ports by 2030 if half of drivers switch to EVs by the time California’s ban on gas cars takes effect.

If half of all vehicles sold are zero-emission by 2030, the country would need 1.2 million public chargers and 28 million private chargers by that year – which a McKinsey report claims would cost more than $35 billion over eight years.

Electric vehicle sales have been climbing by double digits each year since 2016, but over half of US consumers cite battery or charging issues as their main concerns – and it’s fair to say the limited network of public charging stations is a roadblock for many buyers.

And how many reactors will need to be built because Wind & Solar will provide squat.

Just under one in four Britons will leave their heating off over the winter as the price of energy surges, polling has suggested.

Polling released on Monday has suggested that just under one in four Britons will not turn on their heating due to the rising price of energy.

The melting of the Greenland Ice Sheet will cause global sea levels to rise by more than 10 inches (27cm) – even if the whole world stops burning fossil fuels, a new study has warned.

Researchers from the National Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland (GEUS) studied two decades worth of measurements to predict the minimum ice loss from the Greenland Ice Sheet from climate warming so far.
