Elon Musk Is Lying About Tesla's Self-Driving And I Have The DMs To Prove It
17 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
Electrek's Fred Lambert reveals DMs showing Elon Musk once admitted radar could enhance Tesla’s vision-based self-driving - contradicting his current claims that radar and lidar reduce safety. Despite Musk's push for a camera-only system, rivals like Waymo use sensor fusion and operate rider-only robotaxis. The article argues Tesla's vision-only approach stems from internal limitations, not superior safety.Dacia's Wild-Looking Ultracompact Hipster EV Concept
17 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
Dacia's Hipster EV concept is a minimalist, ultra-affordable electric vehicle designed as a modern "people’s car." With a boxy, overhang-free design, strap door handles, and bench seating, it emphasizes simplicity, cost-cutting, and charm. Built to near-production standards, it features clever design touches like integrated rear lights and openwork headrests. If produced, it could launch under $20,000, targeting urban drivers seeking practicality and personality.SAIC's MG4 Leads World in Deployment of Semi-Solid-State Battery
17 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
China's SAIC MG has launched the MG4, the first mass-produced EV with a semi-solid-state battery using manganese-based lithium-ion chemistry. This breakthrough offers higher energy density, improved safety, and environmental benefits over traditional LFP batteries. Approved for sale in China, the MG4 signals a major leap in EV tech - underscoring China's lead in battery innovation and cost-effective electric mobilityLiquid Air Could Be the Clean Energy Storage Breakthrough the Planet Needs
16 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
Liquid air energy storage (LAES) cools and compresses air into a liquid, storing renewable energy for later use. It's scalable, low-impact, and ideal for balancing intermittent sources like wind and solar. When demand rises, the liquid air is warmed, expands, and drives turbines to generate electricity. LAES could be a breakthrough for clean energy storage with 50-70% efficiency, offering long-duration capacity without geographic limits or toxic materials.Toyota's Chairman Said That EVs Pollute More Than Hybrids Do, So Here's What Research Says
16 Oct 2025 | Synopsis
Toyota Chairman Akio Toyoda claims EVs pollute more than hybrids due to battery production and Japan's fossil-fuel-heavy grid. Researchers counter that EVs offset their higher initial emissions after 20,000-28,000 miles and outperform hybrids long-term - even on coal-heavy grids. Studies show EVs emit less CO2 per mile and will improve further with battery recycling.

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.
