@GhostOnTheHalfShell Oh, I know cars suck (and so do trucks). However, I'm thinking that Sodium-Ion batteries could be used for E-bikes and other applications. And yeah, I believe a lot of the Sodium-Ion battery tech calls for using seawater / brinewater, and some utilize recycled metals like nickel.
@GhostOnTheHalfShell Oh, and I wanted to mention a town on the North Shore of #Massachusetts -- #AmesburyMA. Where the speed limit is 30 mph EVERYWHERE! Even on the main drag and rural back roads! Back when I used to visit there, I was always pleased by that, and wished more places would adopt that rule (and enforce it).
