Great news for Minì. Fourth in F2 with two wins and seven podiums speaks for itself, and an FP1 run at Mexico City is a well earned next step for him.
What you're seeing here is the equivalent of about 780 TWh of primary energy being saved without the global car fleet shrinking a single unit in the next 10 years.
It's my best guess at what the distribution of global cars on the road will look like going forward.
That's about the same as
- ~10 nuclear reactors worth of primary energy equivalent savings
- 500 MtCO₂e saved
- 4 to 5 days of global oil demand
And that's the next 10 years, and only from the 34 countries in my set and it's even the worst case scenario that assumes nobody accelerates the BEV transition of cleans up their grid. It also doesn't include heavy trucks, heating or industrial processes.
About 23,000 MtCO₂e is what we need to save in that timeframe globally, but this is a worst case and only one that is about passenger cars.
We can do this people! It will be hard, oh so very fucking hard ... but it IS achievable!

China installed 61GW of wind and 111GW of solar power in Jan-Sep. Wind tracks last year's record pace, while solar is down from that but tracks 2023 which saw a respectable 200GW added. With energy demand growth slowing, clean energy has a good shot at covering all demand growth.

Really impressed with our ride on @Etihad_Rail over the weekend! Very smooth 55min journey from #Dubai to #AbuDhabi with a nice little continental breakfast box and coffee. Will certainly use it again! 🇦🇪
Deaths from floods and storms have fallen thanks to early warning systems and better infrastructure, but heat mortality is rising. The 2023 European heat waves alone killed an estimated 60,000. Leaving heat out of the chart makes it misleading, not evidence.
The chart lying crank @latimeralder uses to claim people are safer from climate risks than ever is utter crank nonsense
It says around 10-20K died of climate related disasters in the 2020’s
60K died in the heat waves of 2023 & 40K this year in Europe
He’s lying. It’s going up.

Nobody said it was new news, it’s just information and obviously people found it interesting.
Terrible news. An elevated road might save a few minutes but those trees cool the air and filter dust every single day. Poor trade. I hope the locals make some noise before the axes come out. #Noida
Looking at the wonderful trees from rajnigandha chowk to 12-22 noida! Sab kat jaenge, thanks to @noida_authority @CeoNoida because of another stupid proposal of elevated road! Our reps not bothered! Also people not bothered! पेड़ ही तो हैं, क्या फर्क पड़ता है, कट गए तो!

Climate change brings more frequent & more intense storms.
More frequent & more intense heat waves.
Yet we are told net zero is the biggest threat to power supply.
Clearly it’s not. That would reduce the increasing incidence of this.
Argue with reality climate cranks.
I prefer to judge people by how they treat their neighbours, not by numbers pulled from 14 centuries of history. Posts like this divide rather than inform, and that's not something worth sharing.

A must-share awareness poster by @kameshp96 (HSPCB). 👏🌿
Simple, practical steps that every builder and contractor must follow to contain construction dust. A valuable resource for RWAs to spread awareness and help keep our neighbourhoods clean.
@MoHUA_India @ulbharyana @MCD_Delhi @dmgbnagar @OfficialGNIDA @noida_authority @MunCorpGurugram @OfficialGMDA @DtcpTs - please consider uploading this poster to your official websites to reach more citizens and ensure that builders and contractors are aware of, and comply with, the prescribed dust-containment norms.
Save it. Share it. Speak up for clean air! 🌿

Gurugram, are we tired of coughing yet?
Industries, road dust and local building sites are polluting our air daily.
Every construction site must follow these five steps:
• Put up tall boundary screens
• Spray water regularly to settle dust
• Cover all stored sand and soil
• Use tight covers on loaded transport trucks
• Dump waste only at safe, legal spots
Clean air is a shared duty. Let us hold rule-breakers accountable.

Interesting chart, but I'd add some context. The decline is driven largely by reduced savanna burning in Africa, not healthier forests. From what I've observed, extreme fires in boreal and temperate forests are increasing. Both datasets matter.

Electric Elliot (formally Everything Electric China), covers hydrogen failing in Japan. If this isn’t the wake up call for those waiting for hydrogen to power cars, nothing will convince them despite Toyota admitting defeat 👇
The video starts with a BYD Kei car, but it’s a great watch.
