13 Sep 2025 | Synopsis
Big Oil's decades-long greenwashing campaign used PR to mask environmental harm. Chevron's "People Do" ads, Exxon's climate denial lobbying, and BP's carbon footprint push shifted blame to consumers. Investors like BlackRock and execs like Rex Tillerson profited, while conservative politicians traded support for donations. Lawsuits from cities and youth groups now challenge fossil fuel deception, aiming to hold companies accountable in court.This Giant Black Box is the EV Charger of the Future

Why EVs Need Psychology More Than Horsepower
30 Oct 2025 | 
Rory Sutherland argues that behavioral science is key to EV adoption. In the Everything Electric podcast with Imogen Bhogal, he explains that range anxiety is psychological, not technical, and that emotional reassurance matters more than battery size. He advocates for longer test drives, intuitive design, and incentives that reflect real human behavior. The interview challenges engineering-first thinking and urges empathy-driven policy to accelerate the EV transition.
Signal Boosting the White House's Anti-Wind Campaign
30 Oct 2025 | 
Douglas McIntyre's video parrots RFK Jr.'s health claims about wind farms without evidence, echoing Trump-era attacks on renewables. By amplifying fringe concerns and ignoring scientific consensus, the video promotes misinformation that undermines climate policy and public trust. Wind energy is not the enemy - ignorance is.
Urban Connect: Modular Mobility Hubs for Transit-Rich Cities
29 Oct 2025 | 
Urban Connect is a modular micromobility hub concept design-ed for dense, transit-rich cities, not unlike that designed by EV World founder and editor-in-chief in 2018. With secure docking, solar charging, and smart tech integration, these hubs support shared and private e-vehicles while boosting public transit use. Deployment costs range from $25K to $75K, with benefits including reduced emissions, improved public health, and expanded access.
