I was today years old when I found out that Fly Me To The Moon is a gay love song!

Some quick math in this thread on why driving a conventional internal combustion car/SUV/light truck really is just about as bad for CO2 emissions as driving an EV running on pure coal power.
(Hybrids edge ahead of EV running on pure coal. But also: whose EVs run on pure coal?!)

One reason to be excited about solar (which is going to be much bigger than wind) is that it gives an advantage in industrialization to the Global South. Africa and Latin America will be cheaper places to make stuff, because they'll have the cheapest electricity.

It's kind of wild to watch a comedian, who was elected because he played a president on TV, and who started out as a totally mediocre president, become the world's bravest and most inspiring leader and the greatest leader in the history of his country...

Still mad about how the U.S. won technological dominance, moral credibility, and geopolitical hegemony in the 1990s and squandered almost all of it in the 2000s
