[1] ['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.'] Date: 2025-10-24 A lot of researchers and activists have noted that we are on many of the right tracks on Global Warming, but we need to do them more and faster. Such is the way of the world, you know. Overcoming stupid wars, dread diseases, oppression, poverty, you name it. Too few, too slow. We WILL cool the Earth back down when we go Carbon Negative. Before that, various species will go extinct, and there will be many fires, floods, droughts, and other climate disasters. Many people are doing all they can to fix this mess, while many others are doing all they can to make it worse. x "we are doing the right things— just not fast enough" New Report Finds Efforts to Slow #ClimateChange Are Working—Just Not Fast Enough www.wired.com/story/new-re... #coal #electricvehicles #ParisAgreement #solarpower #Publicclimatefinance #coralreefs #renewableenergy #cleanenergy [image or embed] — Kathy Bryson (@kathybrys.bsky.social) October 23, 2025 at 8:49 AM This car has more panels out when parked than is possible when driving. Clever. If you only need an EV locally, and can’t have a plug-in charger at home, this might be worth considering at the right price. YMMV, as always. x Springville City Council has just greenlit a groundbreaking 25-year power purchase agreement, securing a share of a massive solar-plus-storage project that promises to redefine energy delivery in Utah!

I can no longer give you a fair sample of such absurd traffic on Bluesky.

Ever. Out of 20m EVs worldwide. That’s 80-odd times rarer than an ICE car fire. If it were a frequent risk, it’d be reflected in insurance premiums.
