Amazon's Zoox Robotaxis Will Start Driving Faster, Farther And At Night In Las Vegas
19 Mar 2024 | Synopsis
"Zoox...will free up its specially designed vehicles to drive at speeds up to 45 miles per hour (72 kph), from 35 mph. It also expanded the Las Vegas area in which the cars can travel to five miles from one mile."Amazon bought Zoox in 2020 for more than $1 billion, leading to speculation it could eventually use the cars as delivery vehicles, sparing it the cost of paying for drivers. Zoox has not made any announcements about its plans beyond
How - and Why - To Start a Neighborhood E-Bike Library
19 Mar 2024 | Synopsis
"The model provides a neighborly alternative to sometimes-costly traditional bike share rentals that only offer limited models, too-short test-rides at bike shops that can be alienating for some shoppers, and even to traditional libraries that allow patrons to check out bikes alongside books...They've had to navigate the challenges of guarding against bike theft - tracking tags, tutorials on how to safely lock up in public..."NASA Wants To Know If Air Taxis Will Annoy You
19 Mar 2024 | Synopsis
"The agency published on Friday a federal register notice requesting public feedback on the study, including ways it can be improved or whether it is practical or necessary...the human response to noise from these vehicles needs to be better understood to help minimize the noise impact...Aircraft sound stimuli will be played to test subjects over their computer speakers, and they will listen and respond on how annoyed they are."U.S. Taxpayers Have Subsidized Fossil Fuels For 111 Years, And Counting
17 Mar 2024 | Synopsis
Biden "new budget proposal calls for the elimination of $35 billion in tax breaks that would otherwise be provided to the industry over the next decade...In Washington, it seems, oil and gas subsidies are the zombies of the tax code: impossible to kill."The oil and gas industry enjoys nearly a dozen tax breaks, including incentives for domestic production and write-offs tied to foreign production.
How The Ford Supercharger/NACS Deal Went Down
17 Mar 2024 | Synopsis
"Ford knew that there wasn't a good chance of a successful EV transition relying on existing CCS networks...Farley said the moment he realized he had to do this was when he took a trip to Lake Tahoe with his kids in an F-150 Lightning...the whole family was experiencing anxiety and the truck almost didn’t make it back to Monterey...the data kept looking worse and worse for CCS networks.."

Reinventing the Windmill: Two Radical Ideas Aiming to Break Wind Power's Biggest Bottlenecks
13 Feb 2026 | 
Two companies aim to reinvent wind power. Airloom Energy uses a low, oval ground track with small blades for easy transport and installation in places big turbines can't go. Radia takes the opposite approach, developing a giant aircraft to deliver ultra‑large blades to remote regions. Both target wind's biggest barrier: logistics, signaling a new era of experimental turbine design.
The Undoing: Inside the Repeal of the CO2 Endangerment Finding
13 Feb 2026 | 
The repeal of the CO2 endangerment finding marked a major shift in U.S. climate policy. EPA chief Lee Zeldin, long aligned with fossil‑fuel interests, drove the rollback through a fast, opaque process critics say ignores science and raises long‑term economic and environmental risks. Courts or a future administration could restore the finding, and Congress could codify it to prevent future reversals.
Waymo Robotaxi Crash Tests Public Trust in Autonomous EVs
12 Feb 2026 | 
A recent Waymo robotaxi crash in Phoenix has become a test of public trust in autonomous vehicles. The incident involved an electric Waymo SUV striking a towed pickup, prompting federal scrutiny and renewed debate over robotaxi readiness. Waymo and other U.S. and Chinese operators use electric platforms, linking autonomy to electrification. The crash highlights that public confidence, not engineering alone, will shape the future of robotaxis.
Do Renewables Make Climate Change Worse?
12 Feb 2026 | 
A claim that renewable energy is making extreme weather worse flips cause and effect. Climate change, driven by fossil fuels, is damaging solar and wind projects, not caused by them. There is no scientific evidence that renewables intensify storms or heatwaves. Instead, they cut emissions and reduce long-term climate risk. The narrative that renewables worsen climate change is a misinformation tactic, not a serious reading of the science.
Do Electric Cars Deliver Carbon Savings? A Critical Look
11 Feb 2026 | 
A Daily Mail article claims electric cars deliver no carbon savings, but it relies on a narrow UK study that compares EV charging emissions to tailpipes only, ignoring oil extraction, refining, and fuel distribution. When lithium refining and battery production are included for EVs and upstream oil emissions are included for ICE vehicles, peer reviewed lifecycle studies show EVs still deliver substantial lifetime carbon savings, especially as grids decarbonize.
