The Electric Bus You Thought Was Dead - But Isn't
19 Sep 2025 | Synopsis
Modern trolleybuses using in-motion charging (IMC) are making a comeback as cost-effective, grid-friendly alternatives to battery-electric buses. They charge via overhead wires and run off-wire using small batteries, reducing infrastructure and maintenance costs. Ideal for dense, hilly cities or those with legacy systems, they face funding and public perception challenges but offer strategic advantages in urban transit electrification.European Study Finds E-bikes Carry A Much Greater Crash Risk Than E-scooters
19 Sep 2025 | Synopsis
A new study from Chalmers University, featured in Air Quality News, finds that e-bikes pose a significantly higher crash risk than e-scooters—over eight times greater when accounting for exposure factors like trip distance and duration. The research analyzed GPS data from shared micromobility services across seven European cities, offering a more accurate comparison than previous studies. The authors call for better data-driven safety policies. Electric Aquaculture Boats Splash Into Waters Off the Coast of Rural Maine
19 Sep 2025 | Synopsis
Electric fishing boat Heron launched in rural Maine, powered by twin electric outboards and backed by $1M in grants. Operated by Maine Ocean Farms, it cuts emissions, noise, and fuel costs. The shift supports climate goals amid warming Gulf waters. Challenges include battery weight and limited charging, but local groups are expanding infrastructure. Heron signals a sustainable future for aquaculture and rural marine industries.Wired Wings: Flying the Bristell B23 Energic Electric Aircraft
19 Sep 2025 | Synopsis
The Bristell B23 Energic, an all-electric trainer aircraft from BRM Aero and H55, offers smooth handling, low operating costs ($8–$9/hr), and a 60-minute flight time under EASA rules. FAA limits U.S. flights to 40 minutes due to stricter reserves, but upgrades are planned. Despite reduced payload from battery weight, performance rivals piston aircraft. Its success signals growing momentum in electric aviation.Rivian's Secret E-Bike Surfaces: A Bold New Chapter in Micromobility
18 Sep 2025 | Synopsis
Leaked images reveal Rivian's upcoming e-bike, developed by its spinoff ALSO Inc. The sleek, silver prototype features full suspension, cargo rack, and inverted fork - blending utility with Rivian's signature design. Backed by a $1B valuation, ALSO aims to disrupt micromobility with a bold October launch. The bike signals Rivian's move beyond trucks, building a broader electric mobility ecosystem for urban riders and lifestyle commuters.

Tailpipe Truthers and the Post-EV Gambit: Mazda's Contrarian Climate Play
04 Nov 2025 |
Mazda challenges EV orthodoxy by arguing that tailpipe emissions alone don't tell the full climate story. At the 2025 Japan Mobility Show, it promoted a lifecycle emissions approach, favoring plug-in hybrids, synthetic fuels, and fuel-flexible drivetrains over full electrification. Critics see this as stalling, but Mazda frames it as a long-term bet on energy diversity and grid realism. Whether it’s visionary or outdated depends on how the world decarbonizes.
Trail Theater: Toyota's Scion 01 Concept Reviewed
04 Nov 2025 | 
Toyota's Scion 01 Concept is a hybrid off-road side-by-side with bold styling and a Tacoma-derived powertrain. It features "Silent Mode" for short-range electric-only driving but lacks plug-in capability or new battery tech. Despite its aggressive design and nostalgic branding, it offers no real innovation - just a repackaged hybrid system in a concept shell. It's more marketing theater than a meaningful step forward in electric mobility.
He Tracked Toxic Wells in America's Parks. Then the Government Cut Him Loose.
03 Nov 2025 | 
Jonathon Kolak, the only federal scientist tracking abandoned oil and gas wells in U.S. national parks, was abruptly fired in 2023. His work exposed methane leaks and legacy pollution across public lands. No replacement was named. Critics say his dismissal signals a retreat from environmental accountability and transparency, just as the U.S. faces mounting climate and cleanup challenges.
China's Thorium Breakthrough: A Strategic Leap Toward Safer, Sustainable Nuclear Energy
03 Nov 2025 | 
China's Thorium Molten Salt Reactor achieved the world's first thorium-to-uranium fuel conversion, proving thorium can generate uranium-233 for future reactors. The experimental setup doesn't produce electricity but validates fuel viability. China aims to build a 100 MW demonstration reactor by 2035. This breakthrough supports safer, scalable nuclear energy and positions China as a leader in fourth-generation reactor technology.
Carbon Neutral Summit 2025 Preview - The Hard Questions Automakers Must Answer
01 Nov 2025 | 
The EMEA Automotive Carbon Neutral Summit 2025 will confront the gap between ambition and execution. Automakers must scale low‑carbon technologies, decarbonize sprawling supply chains, and secure renewable energy for factories and charging networks. Executives will push for clear policy, carbon pricing, and stable investment signals. Circular economy practices and global competition add urgency. The challenge: make carbon neutrality practical, profitable, and fast enough to meet climate goals.
