Even if it only increases the supply by 30% it might be a massive help. The raw number isn't as important as the distribution. If all the charging stations currently are in hotspots, rural areas don't benefit from them. But rural

As far as I can see, both the USB standard and the standardization of charging plugs have been a massive success. Do you remember back when literally every phone had a different charger and plug? I don't see how that was good for the

You are mistaken, the industry is free to innovate and decide on a better standard together. USB-C isn't written into the legislation.

That's the neat thing about hypotheticals: they let us talk about and consider situations which aren't real. I can say crazy, insane things which have no basis in reality without said things affecting reality in a negative way! It

It seems reasonable to me to assume that nothing bad would happen if we stopped fossil fuel consumption right now. The ecosystems on our planet have only had fossil fuel emissions added for around 200 years, and in that time these emissions
