    European Fleet Operators Urge EU Commission Not To Weaken Truck Emissions Policy - CleanTechnica (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Change seldom happens because of some highfalutin social concerns, although that might have been the case for the bans on DDT and Freon. More often, change happens because of self-interest, which usually involves saving money. As Europe suffers due to skyrocketing prices for diesel fuel, several of its most prominent corporations, including IKEA, EDF, Geopost, and DFDS, have petitioned the European Commission to stay the course and not weaken heavy truck emissions standards as demanded by truck

    Germany Pledges To Phase Out Fossil Fuels By 2045 - CleanTechnica (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Politics in Germany is turning ugly, as neo-nazi interests like AfD gain traction with voters, especially in parts of the country that were once part of East Germany. AfD and similar political groups are vehemently opposed to all this “green” malarkey. They look askance at electric vehicles and renewable energy, considering them to be part of a plot to enslave right thinking people. In 2023, Germany put incentives in place to promote the adoption of heat pumps, which included a ban on new gas bo

    The way water moves in the world’s oceans is affected by a number of factors. We know the tides are primarily influenced by the gravitational pull of the moon, but wind and temperature can also affect how the waters of the oceans behave. On the surface, prevailing winds can push the water in one direction or another, but below the surface, variations in temperature can also influence the flow of ocean waters. In the Atlantic Ocean, warm water at the equator flows north along the coast of the Uni

    The Human Cost Of Data Center Pollution - CleanTechnica (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    In 2012, the World Health Organization classified the exhaust from diesel engines as a carcinogen. That decision infuriated the German auto manufacturers, primarily Volkswagen, Mercedes, and BMW. They had all profited handsomely from selling diesel powered automobiles following the OPEC oil embargoes in the 1970s. Diesel cars can travel further on a gallon of fuel then gasoline cars, which led European nations to lower their taxes on diesel fuel. Adam Smith’s unseen hand did the rest. With diese

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    In the summer of 2026, demand for electricity in Texas broke the previous record of 85.5 GW, set three years ago: 45 times. On July 22, 2026, ERCOT, the Texas grid operator, recorded an all time high peak demand of 91.1 GW. On August 20, Houston, Texas experienced its first 100 degree day of the year, yet kept the grid running above its 2023 benchmark for seven hours straight from 2 pm to 9 pm. Through it all, there were no blackouts. How could that be? The answer, according to the Houston Chron
