All over Asia every time the temperature in the evening goes from scorching to bearable for me, everybody there starts pulling out sweaters and jackets.
And typically the other party just says they're the only option to maintain the status quo. Being the lesser of two evils gets some votes, but doesn't bring an easy win. In general, saying what you're against doesn't get much votes compared to saying what you're for. Although it didn't help that the last time a guy promised change didn't change much.
They're working on next generation air traffic control, that is automated and also can handle drones whizzing around next to flying cars, but developing that isn't fast or cheap or deploy and will need extra equipment on the ground and in the cockpit.
That's not the only reason why flying cars haven't arrived. Getting a license to fly is about the price of a new car. Bad weather is no flying. Air Traffic Control can't handle thousands of commuters. Flying cars are pretty big so parking is going to be even more of an issue.
Retirement and a nursing home are no longer economically feasible and my landlord doesn't allow additional residents, so good luck out there mom & dad.
Lithium poisoning? Better not make laptops and phones anymore.
Those substances are also mined for oil production and infrastructure. Molybdenum for oil pipe lines. Cobalt for refining. Luckily research replacing those materials in green tech. The same cannot be said for fossil fuel production.
Where I live, recycling of solar panels is more than 90%. I hope gasoline recycling is about the same ratio.
Yes, cars are expensive. We should ideally invest in good, cheap and clean public transportation, but yeah, fuck the poor. Of course the poor also live closer to busy roads and have more health problems because of exhaust, but again fuck the poor. When climate change hits even more and houses get flooded or baked in heatwaves it won't be the poor neighborhoods that'll receive help first.
Of course you are restricted with what you can buy and use on the roads. Try to go full Mad Max with a battering ram and a flame thrower. Even drunk driving isn't allowed. Why is that not allowed? It could hurt others. And exhaust is proven to hurt others too by premature status and even contribute to causing autism. But that kind of hurt is indirect so should be allowed because the inconvenience to charging is too big.
