Electric Vehicles Outperform Gasoline Cars In Lifetime Environmental Impact
31 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
A study published in PLOS Climate indicates electric vehicles (EVs) have a significantly better lifetime environmental impact compared to gasoline cars. Although manufacturing EVs initially has a higher carbon footprint due to battery production, they offset this "emissions debt" within approximately two years of use. The full report is available from the study publisher.Tesla Robotaxis Are Crashing More Than Waymo, Even With Human Safety Monitors
31 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
Tesla's robotaxis, operating with human safety monitors, have reportedly been involved in more crashes than Waymo's fully autonomous vehicles, according to internal documents and crash data reviewed by Mashable. The incidents raise concerns about Tesla's approach to autonomy, which differs from Waymo's more cautious, sensor-heavy strategy. Critics argue Tesla's system may be less reliable in complex urban environments.Rivian Delivers About 5,000 Electric Vans to Amazon Between July and October
30 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
Rivian's electric delivery vans are gaining traction, with about 35,000 now in active service with Amazon. While Amazon remains a key investor, Rivian has opened sales to other commercial buyers - marking a strategic shift beyond exclusivity. The vans join Rivian's ALSO e-bike startup venture, including its quadracycle delivery platform, expanding its footprint in sustainable last-mile logistics and signaling broader ambitions in urban mobilityDeep Dive Into Wireless Electric Vehicle Fleet Charging
30 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
Inductive wireless charging is transforming public transportation by enabling electric buses to charge while stopped or driving, eliminating range anxiety and maximizing uptime. Although challenges such as high installation costs and establishing standardized systems remain, wireless charging is considered a critical enabler for a zero-emission transit future.Transport for Humans: Are We Nearly There Yet?
30 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
Transport for Humans by Rory Sutherland and Pete Dyson argues that transportation should prioritize human psychology over speed and efficiency. The book explores how perceived time, emotional comfort, and intuitive design shape travel satisfaction more than engineering metrics. With insights from behavioral science, it urges planners to "travel smarter, not faster" by designing systems that feel better, not just move quicker.

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.
Can Food Waste Fuel America's Skies? The Promise And Pitfalls Of Trash-To-JetA
01 Nov 2025 | 
Scientists are developing ways to turn America's massive food waste stream into sustainable aviation fuel. Using processes like hydrothermal liquefaction, discarded scraps can be converted into biocrude and refined into jet-ready fuel. At full scale, it could replace only a fraction of U.S. daily jet fuel demand, but it would cut landfill methane and diversify supply. Major hurdles remain: costly collection, dispersed feedstock, certification, and economics compared to fossil fuel.
Can Coal Power the AI Boom? Wyoming's Bet on a Fading Fuel
01 Nov 2025 | 
Wyoming's coal is being promoted as vital for powering the AI boom, but the market reality tells another story. Utilities continue retiring coal plants as cheaper wind, solar, and natural gas dominate. Lease auctions draw little interest, and even China is pairing coal with massive renewable growth. Analysts warn AI demand may be overstated, leaving coal an expensive detour. The conclusion: coal is unlikely to fuel America's AI future.
