Uber Trains and the Eurostar Green Benchmark

27 Aug 2025 | Synopsis

Eurostar aims to run on 100% renewable electricity by 2030, sourcing from wind, solar, storage, and low-carbon nuclear. Uber's planned train service is expected to follow suit as both rely on UK–EU grids. A London–Paris train trip emits just 2–11 kg CO₂e per passenger versus 50–120 kg by plane, while door-to-door times are comparable (3.5–4h by train vs. 4–5h by air). This makes high-speed rail both cleaner and faster city-centre to city-centre.

26 Aug 2025 | Synopsis

A University of Michigan cradle-to-grave study confirms EVs have lower lifetime greenhouse gas emissions than ICE vehicles, hybrids, and PHEVs. This holds true in every county in the contiguous U.S. Though EV manufacturing creates more emissions, this is offset by their efficiency during operation. For example, a loaded electric pickup emits 30% less than an empty gasoline one.

26 Aug 2025 | Synopsis

The 2025 Lake of the Ozarks Shootout drew over 100,000 spectators and crowned Darana Hybrid's 242 mph turbine catamaran as Top Gun. While electric boats weren't in the top tier, Vision Marine's 180 hp motor remains the fastest electric entry on record. Public concerns about shock risk are unfounded—marine-rated systems use GFCIs, ELCIs, and sealed connectors to ensure safe charging and operation. Electric propulsion is gaining ground, but infrastructure and perception still lag.

Sun vs. Sagebrush: Nevada's Solar Boom Meets Its Wild Heart

12 Oct 2025 | Nevada's Esmeralda 7 solar project was canceled amid ecological concerns and political pushback. Conservationists opposed its scale and impact on desert wildlife and cultural sites. The Trump administration halted its review, citing regulatory burdens. Though 12 million acres are solar-designated, only 20,000 are developed. Advocates urge smarter siting, wildlife corridors, and use of degraded lands to balance clean energy goals with wilderness protection.

EV Alarmism: Common EV Issues Article Analysis

12 Oct 2025 | The GoBankingRates article highlights real EV concerns - battery costs, charging issues, part shortages, and recalls - but overstates their frequency and impact. Most problems are rare, covered under warranty, or brand-specific. Charging and battery failures are uncommon, and recalls affect gas cars too. The article lacks comparative data and context, making its claims seem more alarming than typical EV ownership realities.
