Quixoticgeek"we can't have buses cos we live in a city that was designed in medieval times, and the roads are too small."
Dijon: hold my mustard.
Richard Michael Blaber@quixoticgeek @DoomsdaysCW This bus is still made of metals, & CO2 was still emitted in its production. If the electricity it runs on is not renewable, it will also entail CO2 emissions.
@rmblaber1956 @DoomsdaysCW yes. But this is France so most of the electrons in it battery came from uranium.
Ultimately while yes it does use materials to make. It's better than the several dozen wank panzers it otherwise replaces.
@quixoticgeek @DoomsdaysCW Nuclear electricity isn't much better than the fossil fuel variety, IMHO, & neither is good. However, I don't disagree.
Jonathan B ✈️🪄👨🏻💻@rmblaber1956 @quixoticgeek @DoomsdaysCW although judging by the number of turbines that are dotted all over France, they’re doing pretty well at renewables too. Not sure why the original post warranted the unsolicited reply about emissions etc. though, it just seemed to be an observation that public transportation in older cities is still possible. And a picture of a cute little bus.
