Significant GHG reductions could be made by simply converting the engines to natural gas. This would allow existing vehicle assets to reach the end of their useful lifetime and allow for battery electric tech to catch up.

Crown land is controlled by the provinces. The feds only control national parks, military bases and areas covered under Indigenous title. The provinces hand over crown land to municipalities for development all the time. Land isn't the

This would be a good investment once the grid is over 100% renewable. Until then, just use the renewable power for consumption.

There are a million ways to produce smaller amounts of energy from larger amounts of grid energy. This isn't really useful.

The unspoken subtext of these hysterical articles is that they are only speaking about wealthy white people. The rest of the planet does not exist to them.

Being poor is really expensive. This is something rich and middle upper class people never can really grasp. The cost of credit, unstable housing situations, having a car that breaks down all the time etc. all conspires to keep you poor. As

Distributing unique, but similar documents is a pretty standard method of document control/leak detection. It was certainly not invented by Musk or anyone at Tesla.

Also, an external GPS communicator has the benefit of having an extraordinarily long life. You can leave breadcrumbs for days, send a few text messages, and always have juice for an SOS if you are deep into the backcountry. The Apple SOS is

It is only an attractive investment when the world is awash with excess fiat currency.

These are two very different definitions. The international definition of extreme poverty means living on less than $1.90 a day. It is the basic ability to survive. The domestic poverty threshold definition in the UK is whether or not you a

I would go further. No one should be able to purchase land they do not live on.

Tap is the standard, chip is the backup in Canada. I don't think my card would work with swipe anymore.

At this point, this is simply the negligence of the banks. Most OECD countries switched to chip technology over a decade ago.

There are much easier, and more discrete ways for users to bypass content filters than installing a giant, radiation emitting antennae on your roof.

Cuba, one of the poorest countries in the western hemisphere has a longer life expectancy than the US because they have universal healthcare. They also have a higher divorce rate than the US.

Every six months, some startup guy invents public transit, or some other amenity that has existed for over a 100 years.

This stuff is really low hanging fruit from a climate perspective. It is quite shocking that the US is only now beginning to look at dealing with fugitive methane emissions.

I recently logged onto Stadia to check it out. I was surprised at how well the entire thing worked. As a proof of concept, it showed me that this type of technology will replace consoles and gaming rigs in the very near future. Every game r
