I’m looking forward to the day that either mass transit grows and/or self-driving electric cars evolve to the point that large metropolitan television and radio stations no longer need traffic reporters.
At least I hope that’s the reason, and not some massive plague.

I suspect #Stellantis' CEO is (laughably) wrong about how tariffs on Chinese EVs would trigger inflation. It DOES bolster a suspicion of mine:
#China's #GreenTech industry is exploding at the same time they belch Greenhouse gasses into the atmosphere.
I believe this to be ON PURPOSE.
China is flooding the atmosphere to ACCELERATE #ClimateChange while they pour BILLIONS into Green Tech in an attempt to corner the market.
Saving $ using cheap energy w/o emissions concerns is a plus.
The funding was announced at the company's Squamish warehouse on Friday, Feb. 23, by the Minister of Emergency Preparedness and the Minister responsible for #PacifiCan, Harjit Sajjan.
Quantum Technology specializes in #hydrogen & #helium applications.
#China is #revolutionising the battery business, becoming the #FirstCountry to make #SodiumIon#BatteryTechnology available to all consumers, as companies begin to mass produce the new #energy storage option which is set to replace conventional lithium-ion models.
Vendors have been popping up on Taobao, China’s largest mobile commerce site, offering sodium-ion #batteries , mainly for two-wheeled electric scooters.

@EU_Commission (University of Cambridge researchers show how carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas, can be captured from industry or the air. What's more amazing; it's then converted into clean, sustainable fuels using the power of the Sun. #GreenTech#SustainableFuture#WonderfulWorld)
I'm glad that these "smart rules of engagement," as the piece calls them, will restrict the number of innocent humans we murder remotely with robots to an acceptable level. It will be a great comfort to those families who lose a loved one to know that we were "near certain" their loved one wouldn't be killed before we did just that.
If you think about it, murdering people is good for the environment. The drones themselves are even EVs! The US drone program is a #greentech#climatesolution.
This absolutely squares with what I've seen in Oregon. Reporting on mining in eastern Oregon, I didn't find people excited about working in a polluting, dangerous business. I saw people who wanted living wage jobs in a region with very few options for that. Green manufacturing can succeed in very red places.
I've generally been skeptical of #hydrogen production as a viable #energy route going forward, but when you see headlines like this, it makes you think that perhaps green hydrogen can make sense.
Although, being dependent on the unreliability or sharp imbalances of the weather is something akin to an oxymoron become manifest.
Despite Apple's mission to be more green, French prosecutors are claiming the company's business model focuses on "planned obsolescence", intentionally shortening the lifespan of iPhones. Wired explains the ways Apple could be encouraging consumers to throw away their old devices.
