It makes more sense to do this for the relatively low volume of plastics than when food stocks are used to produce fuel like alcohol and biodiesel.

I used them in our kitchen in a small countertop bin. Our kitchen and yard waste are picked up by the city and composted in high heat composters. If I was still doing backyard composting I doubt they would break down.

One of the biggest factor in gas prices in CA and the rest of the west coast is that much the oil comes from Alaska which is a more expensive source and then is refined in smaller west coast refineries that cost more to run. The result is a

The problem is that “charging” that hydrogen battery uses enormous amounts of energy and produces large amounts of CO2. Until you can find a way to get hydrogen that does not produce CO2 and does not require much more energy than the electr

That is a big win for the much larger, safer, and more luxurious 2021 Civic. The 1980 one was tiny and not something you wanted to be in in a crash. Also, the EPA ratings have changed between now and then getting stricter and closer to actu

It’s not clear yet if Rivian is really doing this on principle or if they are trying to get subscription fees like GM or if they just have a lot to deal with right now and don’t want to bother with it.
