    Every article you post says "COULD". That's because NONE of it is in use. It's all "ideas".

    California SB-519 passed state senate 21-16

    No, it didn't. Trump doing absolutely nothing about a pandemic and then inciting an insurrection at our nations capital did all that. There's nothing "scary" about an overpriced Kalashnikov. Especially given that the wood they use is so substandard that if left on a table on a deck overnight in...

    Yes and no. It's a very complicated process that is cost prohibitive. That's why not many people do it. At present, most manufacturers simply store the old batteries rather than recycle them because it's cheaper. According to Tesla itself, only 60% of the components in its used batteries are...

By a factor of roughly 10. But the Molten Salt Reactor is, by far, the safest design ever created. It uses depleted...

    That's it in a nutshell. Renewables aren't powerful enough to be relied on for charging cars. They simply don't produce the power. Well, wind does, but that's about it and it's not consistent. If we don't start biting the bullet and embracing nuclear salt reactors there's really no hope at all...

    Political memes ONLY.. To prove your political points.

    That is never going to happen. Everybody even talking about abolishing the filibuster is living in a more delusional world than a QAnon follower.

    Not when a fillup is only 20 dollars, takes only 3 minutes and gives you 400 miles of travel. Time is money. People will pay 30 dollars to watch a new movie rather than wait to watch it for free.

    Fun fact: Those solar panels aren't charging the cars. Those are fast chargers sucking up 240 volt grid power (double what anything in your house takes to run). The solar panels power only the lighting and ATM's that are there.

    That's true. Especially when it comes to recycling. Most of a tesla can be: the plastics, tires, copper windings, motors, etc. With a computer, pretty much nothing can.
