Consumption of fossil fuels is one of the leading causes of climate change. If we could get released to our addiction to it that would be big. To make the point about how quickly renewable energy is growing, Al Gore, the former vice-president of the USA quoted the economist Rudiger Dornbusch: “Sometimes things take longer to happen than you think they will, and then they happen faster than you thought they could.” I heard recently that one of the car companies (I think it was Toyota) has invented a solid state battery that can power a car for more than 1,000 Km before re-charging and it only takes 15 minutes to re-charge. That will be a game changer if it happens, because EVs have a lot of advantages.
That could be tipping point on Climate change. |
