    Agreed. It’s not a clean solution to transport at all. It also suffers the same (actually more so) range anxiety as Battery Electric Vehicle (#BEVs ), the latter of which is being addressed with more charging points and lower charging times in the offing.

    It maybe cheaper to run than #FossilFuel fed Internal Combustion Engines ( #ICE) , but not as cheap as BEVs (zero cost if you have a home PV system).

    Any transport technology is cheaper when govt incentives are in the mix. This was so when we builkt cars in AUS, as well as for gas powered cars and is currently so for BEVs (though the latter is waining — a crazy policy move IMO).

    There are no comprehensive transport solutions to our current planetary crisis other than electrification of all transports systems in Australia. We have Sun and Wind a plenty and Batteries will soon be ubiquitous on the #Grid provided Govt(s) give up on their #Complicit and expensive support to #ExtractiveIndustries. The #ABC of all msm platforms ought to desist from giving voice to an industry that has failed Australians for decades. There never was a social licence for #Grifters, #Profiteers and despoilers of the #land that was never ceded.

    There. I’ve said my piece on the matter. Thank you Susan for tooting about it.

  2. Today, there's 8 of us doing volunteer #phonebanking #RemoteProtests. I'm on the lines from noon-3pm. We're working out phone banking volunteer hours for the new week ahead; so the #StopServingICENazis campaign heat stays steady with public pressure.
    Sunday's #FuckICE phone banking targets are: vehicle rental companies, fuel providers & clothing providers.

  3. #housing #profiteers #corruption Not that I'd suggest any impropriety but..... (I am a former tenant of LBH / Social Housing), I went on one of my trampy adventures to return to find my tenancy had been sold on, the rent increased, I was considered a 'defaulter' ('they' had changed the terms) and was then #NFA (No Fixed Abode). F'ing #capitalist bar_stewards. A bas l'eetat ✊

  4. @jalefkowit This post is such a #cringe #love #letter to #Moderna and #Pfizer. Those two #companies didn't fund the basic #research necessary to make the #vaccine, our #tax dollars did.
    They won't release that #IP -- they're #profiting off of our #public #investment. This is what they do. In this case, if #China had agreed, those #profiteers would have simply raised more issues, meaning more #death while they siphon #millions more.
    Those corporations aren't #heroes --
    Free #insulin, anyone?
