Does your analysis rely on a localized energy market? Because with curtailment it seems to me that there is no incentive for energy producers to sell energy cheaply to factobatteries, right?

That is one of the founding principles of the peace through (free) trade argument. But many countries seem to be working on reversing globalisation (on-shoring critical capabilities). So this Russian invasion is the closest we might have co

I used to do this with my Aeropress. I added an icecube on top of the ground coffee and poured boiling water over it. It reduced the temperature from 100°C to about 80°C if I remember correctly. Anyway, it came out ready to drink, and gener

This is just about the time banking became a thing in Italy. Most(?) humans would still be in pre-history. Maybe you could detect increased activity along the silk-road if you look closely. Pollution levels in the atmosphere would still be

In London it is worth trying to optimize where you live so you can get by bicycle where you need to go. Some parts are terribly connected for cyclists others much better. You can use citymapper to find and check for cycling routes (do not u

Find data sources and optimise for your objectives. For me it was: - travel-time, via connections like airports, train stations, motorways, etc. You will need them when you want to travel, or your spouse needs to get to an office - weather.

Would a small group not make ground-based travel (depending on size, car/minibus/Bus/train) better than flying? Adding additional passengers to a car does increase the CO2 emissions not as much as putting a new car on the roa
