What’s a power bottom?
Is being a top reserved for bears?
I think a bigger part of the production emissions come from further up the supply chain than the factory. Such as extraction, refinement and shipping of the lithium and cobalt required for batteries. That is also what makes it hard to estimate.
My point was that switching to EVs will not make transportation emissions disappear.
An EV still produces about 30% of the lifetime CO2 emissions of an equivalent ICE, assuming a 100% clean grid [1]. So unless we change the systems that are putting more and more cars on the road, and increasing vehicle miles traveled each year, emissions will continue to rise.
Cars only really became available to the public in the 20s or 30s. I bet your city was overrun by cars by the 50s. Cities drastically changed over just a few decades. Why should it take significantly longer to go in the reverse direction? Other than a lack of political will.
edit: I’m not against EVs overall. I know there will always be a need for cars/trucks to some extent, and I think they should all be EVs. But don’t let that be a distraction from actual meaningful climate action.
I interpreted the meteors/city on fire as short hand for general armageddon because it is probably pretty hard to draw; in a single comic panel: droughts, crop failure, wild fires, floods, severe storms, wars over fresh water, etc. You know, the actual things that will kill people from climate change.
But if you interpret the meteors as literal, then what is the point of the comic? A swarm of meteors is not influenced at all by someones choice to drive an EV or not. So this comic is no longer a critique of that choice.
This comic seems to imply that the outcome of climate change will be dependent on individuals’ choice of personal vehicle, and not on the cars themselves or the systems that keep people reliant on them. EVs will not save us from climate change. They are an attempt to prolong the life of the auto industry as we move into a future that must move past motornormativity.
Marvel is copaganda.
Strubb’s pickles. They are supposed to be back under a new owner, but I still can’t find them in any local grocery store.
Fetchez la vache!
it’s just a pain in the ass to have to print out a personalized PDF
If one and two look the same to you, does it matter which one is prescribed? Can you even say that the prescription is correct?
I’m getting tired of people putting survival over standing up to the system.
That’s a pretty privileged position to take. “Hey you, poor person, you should die so I have the opportunity to benefit from the system changing.” Is that any different from what CEO was doing?
Does a McDonalds worker lose anything by not turning the guy in?
Yes, $50k.
I’m not trying to justify it. I’m just pointing out that a year and a half salary is a pretty strong incentive. That is the opportunity to quit your job and not worry about money for a couple of months while you look for a better job. Whether you work at McDicks or Xitter, I understand the appeal of that. And I think a lot of people at least consider that.
Maybe after a certain point even those trying to survive should share the blame for the negativity their contributions bring.
This transaction feels like a bribe to keep the poors in check.
I mean, yeah. That’s the whole point. But I still don’t blame the individuals that are also victims of the system.
$50k of a reward. Probably over 1.5 years of salary.
Quiche is just eggy deep dish pizza
gone downhill imo since the Nexus 6
Nexus 6 was released October 2014. That same month, Moto Mobility was sold to Lenovo. So its not just “in your opinion” that was the start of the reduction in quality of the Moto brand.
That’s a lot to keep in your head just to maintain a lifestyle.
