    EV doesn't change hurricanes in anyway at all, just another scamming effort to compel people to sell an idea that is only partially developed and not financially or environmentally healthy.

    There has been FEWER hurricanes reaching the Gulf Coast states especially Major category hurricanes where there were ZERO of them landfalling for 12 consecutive years until 2017 despite the increased level of CO2 in the atmosphere and a slight warming trend since 2005.

    This little article does a pretty good job of summarizing why EVs will likely peak here shortly. It's a fairly recognizable pattern dating back to the mid-70s that simply says that the more the government tries to kill nice, useful vehicles, the more regular people will migrate to vehicle classes that are not regulated to keep the practical advantages of good vehicles designed to carry more than one person and a briefcase comfortably. Plus, the guy who wrote it is a climate zealot and true believer.

    Now being an amateur he kind of mangles regulatory details, but this is the first time I've seen a true believer even come close to reality.

    Berlin Tesla Plant Plagued By Slow Sales, Staffing Shortages… “Complete Chaos”!
    By P Gosselin on 31. December 2022

    Share this...
    Is Tesla falling apart? Elon Musk’s dream company is becoming everything except sweet…

    Electric cars are the technology of the future and by 2030, combustion engine cars won’t even be sold in some countries, we are told.

    Reality collides with dream

    Yet, the inconvenient economic and technical realities of electric cars refuse to go away: they’re expensive to acquire, maintain and operate, are harmful to the environment, difficult to recycle, have limited range and they are far from being CO2 neutral. In some regions, the CO2 breakeven point comes after the car’s lifetime expires.

    So it’s little wonder Tesla is struggling with layoffs at its Berlin Gigafactory and sales are falling worldwide, reports Germany’s online Blackout News here.

    [​IMG]

    According to an employee, there’s “complete chaos” at the Berlin plant, low motivation due to the poor working conditions, and 5,880 vacancies because of the plant’s difficulty attracting skilled workers.

    Slow sales, large discounts

    Moreover, Tesla sales figures are collapsing in China and other places globally. Already the company is offering customers in Germany high discounts to get rid of its growing stockpile of unsold cars.

    “Tesla is offering a discount of up to 5,000 euros on the list price of existing vehicles on its website,” reports Blackout News “In addition, buyers are also to be allowed to fill up with free electricity for 10,000 kilometers at Tesla’s fast-charging stations.” The woes even lead Blackout News to speculate: “End of the Tesla hype in sight?”

    Tesla stock loses

    Tesla share price has “plummeted drastically in recent weeks due to the poor sales prospects” and Mr. Musk himself “has repeatedly sold his own Tesla shares worth billions.”

    Others speculate that Musk’s acquisition of Twitter also may have rubbed a number of his customers the wrong way: Tesla drivers aren’t fans of free speech.

    PS: HAPPY NEW YEAR, EVERYBODY! Keep speaking up! Now more than ever is not the time to relent. The flawed bedrock of our enemies is cracking everywhere.

    The Coming Future Of Electric Vehicles: Something Here Does Not Add Up
    January 07, 2023/ Francis Menton
    [​IMG]

    • Supposedly, we are rapidly on our way toward a zero-carbon, all electric energy future. But has anybody done the arithmetic to see if this adds up?

    • I’m carving myself out a niche as the guy who does a few simple calculations to check if the grand schemes of our central planners make any sense. So far I’ve taken that approach to the question of energy storage to back up a wind/solar electricity grid, and on that one the schemes of the central planners most definitely do not add up.

    • But the energy storage question, although involving no math beyond basic arithmetic, does have some complexities. How about something somewhat simpler, like: If we convert our entire automobile fleet to all-electric cars, where is the electricity going to come from?
