Well, elections mean different things to different folks
The powers that be want their climate change adjustments to society. Do you think scratching around with more efficient fuel burning engines is going to make a difference, it’s pissing into a climate ‘change’ induced hurricane.
There is a synthetic fuel on the way, the next engine formula will run off it when introduced in 2025/26. It’s been developed and the teams have access to small quantities of it
I think the idea is to have this fuel for the exotic cars so they can be driven when/if hydrocarbons are phased out
An inventive method was applied to determine the minimum major radius, R0, and the optimum build of a tokamak fusion reactor that simultaneously meets all physics, engineering, and neutronics constraints. With a simple cost model, tokamak systems analyses were carried out over ranges of system parameters to find an optimum build of a tokamak fusion reactor at minimum cost. The impact of a wide range of physics parameters and advanced engineering elements on costs were also addressed. When a central solenoid was used to ramp up a plasma current, design solutions with a cost of electricity (COE) between 109 and 140 mills/kWh, direct capital cost between 5000 and 6000 M/USD, and net electric power, Pe between 1000 and 1600 MW could be found with a minimum R0 between 6.0 and 7.0 m, and fusion power, Pfusion between 2000 and 2800 MW. When the plasma current was driven by a non-inductive external system, the system size and costs could be reduced further; a COE between 98 and 130 mills/kWh, direct capital cost between 4000 and 5000 M$, and Pe between 1000 and 1420 MW could be found with a minimum R0 between 5.1 and 6.7 m, and Pfusion between 2000 and 2650 MW.
Hopefully the synthetic fuels can run in current ICES. Adding 10% biodiesel to diesel at the pumps has made shit of engines over the years.

were the carbon emissions desperate bad 80 years ago too they were?

huh?
And ye want to pump water out of Parteen?
And it virtually savanna out there.
Twas a fabulous back end lads. Cows out day and night.

Fucking hell. We are very lucky we don’t get anything like that. Hurricanes, Volcanoes, Earthquakes etc etc

That’s nearly as bad as a black lives matter protest.
I dunno, maybe some natural disasters would give the population a bit of perspective.
Staying safe is overrated.
Tis easy know you don’t own a trampoline.

It’s insane. What’ll happen with insurance payouts ?
