Reply to comment by AppliedTechStuff in New cars sold in EU must be zero-emission from 2035 by Vucea
Hybrids aren't what the world needs, either. We need to design cities so that most people don't need a car at all. And that means trains, buses, metros, trams, bikes or ebikes (which make far more efficient usage of lithium than EVs do), high- and mid-density development rather than single-family homes, and walkable neighborhoods. Car-centric development is completely unsustainable regardless of what's powering the car.

Well, it's certainly not going to be a real place for much longer, the way Musk is running it into the ground.

Milliard and billiard are stupid, archaic units that belong with inches, pounds, and all the other archaic English units.

Not just in Germany, across the world. Hirschfeld's work was groundbreaking, and the loss of his research and treatment documentation was so devastating to queer and especially trans healthcare, that it's not an exaggeration to compare it to the loss of the Library of Alexandria.

Yeah it's super depressing. We lost so much knowledge because of the Nazis, knowledge that could have saved countless trans and queer lives. And that's not even getting into how many queer people the Nazis — followed by the Allies who let us continue to rot in the camps — murdered directly.
I wonder what my childhood might've been like if that knowledge hadn't been burnt to the ground, and had instead become widespread...

To add, green hydrogen accounts for a very small percentage of hydrogen production. The majority (afaik) is black/brown hydrogen, with a a smaller amount of grey hydrogen. Green is like a percent or two.
