I went from 60ps ICE to 300kW dual motor EV and the only problems I have is when overtaking on the motorway. I used to have to put the pedal to the floor to go from
60 to 70 mph. Now when I floor it in my EV at 60mph I'm at about 100 in a few seconds, it's frightening.
EVs are definitely unnecessarily fast for retards like me
Good point but there has to be a balance somewhere.
If you have extremest moderators in charge of a community which is seemingly unbiased by its name can be misleading. Others will not create duplicate communities because one already exists with that name. And then those mods ban anyone who opposes their view creates a strong echo chamber and a unrealistic and unrepresentative community.
I'm mostly saying this because of moderators of noncredibledefense for example. They will ban people who state they oppose an all out war with Russia, which is madness. Yes it's a shitpost community but there's a line.
I don't take any article post or comment seriously anymore. Between the era of misinformation and advancements in AI, my trust in the internet is at an all time low.
You sound like someone which understands the problem. Also I would argue driving is still significantly less emitting than the commercial jet so please remember that when you do the trip next time. ICE car is the correct mode of transport for 1000km trip with a dog, the good boy is probably happier too
Firstly, US is not the only country with higher emissions per capita outside of europe. If you wanted to say a truthy but mostly irrelevant statement in this context you succeeded, but remember Canada Australia and New Zealand are also western. Note the grey area of South Korea & Japan.
Secondly I'm assuming you googled "population of Europe" and then falsely counted Russia and Turkey as western. Also there are grey areas of Belarus, Greece, Ukraine and other "European" counties without strong historic western culture.
With that in mind population difference is closer than you think, assuming you wanted to focus on that. Although that's not the point, getting sidetracked is all too common on this site.
I really cba to do the math on emissions, because I know neither of us has done accurately. If I was getting paid, maybe I would spend a few weeks on it, research properly heavily considering Chinese emissions which are spent making and shipping goods for the west. Paying off our emissions to other counties is a cop out and we all know it.
I like to do this on Facebook and let it influence my national election vote.
