  1. 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.

  2. For those that keep saying wind turbines can't be reused or recycled need to read this

    "The analysis found a total 99.9% material recovery – calculating that 79.5% of the wind farm’s components were recycled and 20.4% were reused or retained as spare parts, keeping nearly all material out of landfills."

    100% of the recycling and component retention took place in the UK, supporting domestic green jobs and at least 10 supply chain companies.

  7. Japanese Power Plant Turns Saltwater Into Electricity and It’s a Glimpse Into The Future

    Fukuoka District Waterworks Agency Scientists believe saltwater could become a reliable source of renewable energy through a process known as osmosis. Japan has now taken a major step in that direction. Earlier this month, Japan officially launched its first osmotic power plant in Fukuoka, a large city to the west of Tokyo. That makes Japan the second country in the world to bet on osmotic power, after Denmark. Fukuoka’s plant is expected to generate about 880,000 kilowatt hours of […]

  9. 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 […]

  10. Oil Things Must Pass
    ==================

    [Verse 1]
    Our governments are always warring
    Killing keeps gas price at bay
    Poor people’s blood, rich man’s profit
    I just don’t believe what they say

    [Chorus]
    Oil things must pass
    Oil things must pass away

    [Verse 2]
    We’re destroying all the natural greenery
    No place left, for the kids to play
    They choke on toxic fumes, while coughing
    It doesn’t have to be this way.

    [Chorus]
    Oil things must pass
    Oil things must pass away

    [Bridge]
    Oil things must pass
    No human beings can last
    So we must switch to solar power now, without delay

    [Verse 3]
    Sunlight doesn’t cost a penny.
    Solar batteries get recharged all day.
    Planet Earth heated up, despite all warnings.
    Let’s cool it, before it’s too late.

    [Chorus]
    Oil things must pass
    Oil things must pass away
    Oil things must pass
    Oil things must pass away

    - Ashwin Dixit.

  11. American Investors To Explore Mega Infrastructure, Energy Deals And Other Opportunities In The Philippines

    Several business executives and investors from the United States are set to visit the Philippines next week to explore investment opportunities in the nation’s infrastructure sector, energy sector, and more, according to a news report by the Manila Bulletin. The American investors will engage with their Filipino counterparts during the planned 5-day trade mission.

    To put things in perspective, posted below is the excerpt from the report of the Manila Bulletin. Some parts in boldface…

    More than 25 American business executives and investors will visit the country next week for a business mission as the United States (US) seeks to deepen its economic ties with the Philippines, which recently secured upper-middle-income status.

    In a statement, the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) said the US business delegation would mount a five-day trade mission across major economic areas in the Philippines from July 6 to 10.

    The delegation includes business leaders and investors from the Northeast and Midwest regions of the US. The mission is organized by the DTI’s Philippine Trade and Investment Center (PTIC) in New York and the Philippine Consulates General in New York and Chicago.

    The DTI said the business mission aims to strengthen economic ties between the two longtime trade partners while also encouraging US companies to invest more in the country’s growing economy.

    Based on the latest country income classifications of the World Bank, the Philippines has moved up from lower-middle-income to upper-middle-income status. This was based on the country’s gross national income (GNI) per capita estimate for 2025, which reached a record $4,850.

    The DTI noted that the upcoming visit also comes at a time when the Philippines is actively positioning itself as a key partner for US companies looking to expand in Asia.

    During the business mission, the US delegation will meet with Philippine government leaders and local business owners to explore business, tourism, and investment opportunities.

    The US business leaders will also attend business meetings, informational briefings, and tours of key economic areas in Manila, Clark, Subic, and Corregidor.

    Let me end this piece by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this development? Do you see a promising future between the United States and the Philippines when it comes to economics and investment under the leadership of US President Donald Trump? Are you convinced the corruption within the Philippines is no longer a turn-off for American investors?

  15. If I was #PrimeMinister here is how I would double electrical generation in #Canada with net zero spending

    Step 1) Offer installation of solar panels and batteries with all costs born upfront by the government

    Step 2) The government recoups its expenditures over time by getting 75% of the electrical savings the installed solar panels and batteries generate. Ownership of the systems transfer once costs are recouped.

    Canada wins by increasing it's renewable energy production and having surplus energy available for development.

    Canadians win by saving up to 25% on their power bills immediately and even more in the future (once systems are paid of)

    The Government of Canada wins because they meet their international obligations (Paris Treaty) and recoup all money making the final cost net zero.

    The only loser in this scenario are the foreign owned oil and gas companies, plus Danielle Smith... so really that's another win.
