So, Uber asked me if removing UberX (the standard option) would make me sad. They wanted to know if I'd choose a different option or leave the platform entirely.
In all honesty, that would allow only the newer, eco-friendly vehicles to run around, so that's something. The prices aren't any higher, especially if you choose the wait&save option.
The downside, from what I've noticed, is that (all???) EVs have ad displays in the back. Look, I want to do my part and reduce CO₂ emissions, but I absolutely detest ads. Plus, I'm paying for my ride. At least make them free, you know, like those awful mobile games that people play in the bathroom.

How To Store Renewable Energy
Image credit: Pramote Polyamate via Getty Images Renewable-energy storage is important to help humanity reduce its dependence on fossil fuels such as oil and coal, which produce carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases that cause climate change. Harnessing the power of the sun with solar panels and utilizing wind power with wind turbines are two common ways to generate renewable energy. But the sun isn't always shining and the wind isn't always blowing when we want electricity, and […]https://onlinemarketingscoops.com/2026/08/08/how-to-store-renewable-energy/

"We're in the middle of an election season, so one thing I always think about is: How do we vote for people who care about this? We need people who get it, who are going to prioritize it. We need to elect people up and down the ballot — on city council, school boards, public utility commissions, all of it.
Climate change needs to be near the top of their list of priorities. As citizens, as voters, we can advocate for politicians to care more about this. We can ask, what is your climate platform? Are you thinking about clean energy as you're thinking about building affordable housing?
Another important thing is how we spend our money. A lot of people don't understand that voting with your dollars is a very real thing. We've seen that in the last few years as people have boycotted various streaming services or other corporations — that really makes a difference."

Someone finally built the car that charges itself.
Just talked to Robert Hoevers, CEO of Squad Mobility, about their solar-powered city car. Panel on the roof. Battery underneath. Park it in the sun, drive it around town—it just keeps charging.
Live somewhere sunny? You literally never plug in. The average person drives 12km a day for errands. This does 150km max range. The math works.
5,300 pre-orders. €1.5M in European funding. Production starts next year.
Street legal. Crash tested.
Robert put it simply: "It's like a second car."Exactly. Not for highway commutes but perfect for the grocery run, city trip, the school drop-off and all those short trips where driving a massive polluting vehicle makes zero sense.
Sometimes the obvious solution just needed someone to build it.

Am 𝗦𝗮𝗺𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗴 haben wir viel Wind im deutschen Stromnetz! 𝟰𝟮% der Stromerzeugung erfolgt durch Winkraftanlagen an Land, 𝟵% durch Offshore-Windräder.
Diese Windenergie können wir nutzen, indem wir unsere Waschmaschine 👕 oder den Geschirrpüler 🍽 während der Zeiten mit viel Wind in Betrieb nehmen. Oder uns (elektrifizierten) Rückenwind in das eBike packen! 🚲
Das große Stromangebot aus Erneuerbaren Energien reduziert dabei nicht nur die Emissionen für die Stromerzeugung, sondern drückt auch den Börsenpreis: Eine Kilowattstunde gibt es am Spotmarkt zeitweise für 𝟭 Cent pro Kilowattstunde! 😮
Wer einen dynamischen Stromtarif hat, kann diesen 𝗦𝗮𝗺𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗴 also sehr günstigen, grünen Strom beziehen. 🌬️💸

Am 𝗠𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗴 ist nur über die Mittagszeit viel grüner Strom von Photovoltaikanlagen im Netz. Während Tagsüber mit der Kraft der Sonne Erneuerbare Energien bis zu 𝟴𝟭% der Stromversorgung ausmachen, erzeugen bei Dunkelheit hauptsächlich fossile Kraftwerke unseren Strom. 🔥 🌛
Denn ohne Wind- und Solarenergie bleiben für eine klimafreundliche Erzeugung nur Biomasse, Wasserkraft und Geothermie übrig. Und die können nur einen kleinen Teil des Bedarfes decken. So fällt der Anteil Erneuerbarer auf bis zu 𝟮𝟯% ab. Diese Zeiträume sind in unserer Prognose rot markiert. 🔴
Wie viel Kohle- und Gaskraftwerke während Dunkelflauten leisten müssen, kann aber durch den Stromverbrauch mit beeinflusst werden:
Pumpspeicherwerke etwa beziehen dann keinen Strom mehr und speisen wieder ins Netz zurück und verschiebbare, energieintensive Prozesse in der Industrie werden verlegt. Bedingt durch höhere Preise am Spotmarkt wird auch weniger Strom aus dem Ausland angefragt und Abnehmer mit dynamischen Tarifen reduzieren ihren Verbrauch, um Energiekosten zu sparen. Auch entsprechend eingerichtete Wallboxen können während Dunkelflauten die Ladeleistung reduzieren oder das Laden verschieben. 🔋⏰
Und schließlich können wir auch im Privathaushalt zu einer Senkung des Strombedarfes in diesen Zeiten beitragen: Indem wir Wäschewaschen und Geschirrspülen verschieben und während Dunkelflauten noch mehr aufs Stromsparen achten als sonst. 🔌
Im Vergleich zur Industrie mögen das kleine Fische im Wattmeer sein – in Summe kann der Schwarm aus über 40 Millionen Haushalte in Deutschland aber ebenfalls einen beachtlichen Beitrag leisten! 💪🏡

Blog: Voices of #Decolonization
#FirstNations chiefs shouldn’t be duped by the ‘#nuclear-is-green' deception
by William Eric Altvater, February 6, 2025
"Some First Nation Chiefs are victims of shenanigans, not unlike the swindle behind the purchase of Manhattan. The federal government needs the support of #Indigenous peoples to expand nuclear power generation capacity in #Canada.
"For millennia, the cornerstones of the Indigenous people that inhabit Turtle Island, now known as North America, held all that is essential to life, in reverence. Every decision considered the next 7 generations. These cornerstones are crumbling.
"Newcomers, armed with the #Colonizing tool, 'The #DoctrineOfDiscovery' and their mentality of superiority, invaded the land of those they called 'Savages,' almost totally exterminating #Skicinuwok, People of The Earth.
"Determined to bestow Christianity and civility to this wild untamed population, old growth forests were cut, rivers and streams were dammed to power sawmills, roads and railroads were built, bridges erected. All to create an infrastructure for #capitalism, a system to make a #profit, that morphed into #greed, a word of foreign root. This unbridled desire for progress has ruined what was once called Paradise.
"Now most water is not fit to drink, clean air is scarce, #deforestation is rampant, #biodiversity loss out of control, plants genetically modified, food manufactured with unpronounceable chemicals, caged fish starved of oxygen while being fed chicken feathers and pig parts, cancer cases in the millions, the list goes on.
"As the population increased over this continent the available sources for power generation have not been able to satisfy the insatiable desires of the 'bigger, better, faster, more is never enough' mentality. Some have finally acknowledged the fact that #FossilFuels are not the golden egg they were once deemed to be.
"So-called '#GreenEnergy' is required to slow the blind drive to extinction of man; man, who is considered by some to be the most intelligent creature to ever roam Earth. Unfortunately, the lure of riches and the corruption of self-serving purposes have led man to stray from practices that nurture everything required to sustain life on this tiny blue marble floating through the universe.
"#NuclearPower is now being touted as being 'Green.' It is not. Big money corporations are lobbying legislators to convince them and the public that it is. They are also lobbying to convince the public that they should foot the bill in the form of taxes and rate hikes, for a process that pollutes from the day it starts. Water is life. As soon as #uranium is mined from the earth it begins to contaminate the water in surrounding aquifers.
"When the uranium is processed sufficiently, it is used as fuel for reactors where it generates heat while delivering electricity, not just for essential needs, but also for many things once considered luxuries. This fission generated heat is then dumped into nearby waters where it kills thousands, if not millions of small beings that form the basis of life itself.
"After this radioactive fuel is depleted, it is stored in various containers where it will stay radioactive for eons. Indigenous #Grandmothers have labelled it 'Forever Dangerous.'
"The power generated during the fission process benefits only those who exist today as the process occurs, not those born tomorrow or next week or next month. All the #RadioactiveWaste and the inherent danger it creates is left to future generations, kicking the can down the road.
"What better place to dump this waste than in an area with a population that has witnessed Newcomers enrich themselves for hundreds of years? Yes, what better place than a population that has been targeted for assimilation, suffered theft of lands, witnessed the taking of naturally bestowed rights? A population that has been subjected to racial Indian Act legislation essentially stripping away all that sustained this population for thousands of years.
"Yes, let us give the Indians some more shiny beads and trinkets so that they willingly agree to care for our radioactive garbage. How do we do this? Let’s talk to the Chief and Council. Let’s wine and dine them. Let’s give them some money, take them to dinner, buy some drinks and make them feel all festive and most of all make them think we are looking out for their best interests. Some Chiefs have taken the bait.
"Egregious as it may be, this is exactly what is happening in some Indigenous communities contrary to the will of the majority. Elected Chiefs are continuing the deception as they are blinded and professing the 'Nuclear is Green' mantra. They have lost connection with the Spirit of Ancestors and traditional values. They need to have a serious introspection and realize that looking forward, we need only look back at what has sustained us to this point in time. We need not do any more than that."

#FirstNations chiefs shouldn’t be duped by the ‘#nuclear-is-green' deception
by William Eric Altvater, February 6, 2025
"Some First Nation Chiefs are victims of shenanigans, not unlike the swindle behind the purchase of Manhattan. The federal government needs the support of #Indigenous peoples to expand nuclear power generation capacity in #Canada.
"For millennia, the cornerstones of the Indigenous people that inhabit Turtle Island, now known as North America, held all that is essential to life, in reverence. Every decision considered the next 7 generations. These cornerstones are crumbling.
"Newcomers, armed with the #Colonizing tool, 'The #DoctrineOfDiscovery' and their mentality of superiority, invaded the land of those they called 'Savages,' almost totally exterminating #Skicinuwok, People of The Earth.
"Determined to bestow Christianity and civility to this wild untamed population, old growth forests were cut, rivers and streams were dammed to power sawmills, roads and railroads were built, bridges erected. All to create an infrastructure for #capitalism, a system to make a #profit, that morphed into #greed, a word of foreign root. This unbridled desire for progress has ruined what was once called Paradise.
"Now most water is not fit to drink, clean air is scarce, #deforestation is rampant, #biodiversity loss out of control, plants genetically modified, food manufactured with unpronounceable chemicals, caged fish starved of oxygen while being fed chicken feathers and pig parts, cancer cases in the millions, the list goes on.
"As the population increased over this continent the available sources for power generation have not been able to satisfy the insatiable desires of the 'bigger, better, faster, more is never enough' mentality. Some have finally acknowledged the fact that #FossilFuels are not the golden egg they were once deemed to be.
"So-called '#GreenEnergy' is required to slow the blind drive to extinction of man; man, who is considered by some to be the most intelligent creature to ever roam Earth. Unfortunately, the lure of riches and the corruption of self-serving purposes have led man to stray from practices that nurture everything required to sustain life on this tiny blue marble floating through the universe.
"#NuclearPower is now being touted as being 'Green.' It is not. Big money corporations are lobbying legislators to convince them and the public that it is. They are also lobbying to convince the public that they should foot the bill in the form of taxes and rate hikes, for a process that pollutes from the day it starts. Water is life. As soon as #uranium is mined from the earth it begins to contaminate the water in surrounding aquifers.
"When the uranium is processed sufficiently, it is used as fuel for reactors where it generates heat while delivering electricity, not just for essential needs, but also for many things once considered luxuries. This fission generated heat is then dumped into nearby waters where it kills thousands, if not millions of small beings that form the basis of life itself.

January 2025 was brutal cold here. We used 3.6MWh in just that one month!
The kWh bank is down to ~700kWh, but spring is near and we're starting to produce more than we consume once again.

The price of solar modules declined by 99.6% since 1976. In most places in the world, power from new renewables is now cheaper than power from new fossil fuels.
