Excellent news today:

The case against Trudi Warner for contempt of court (for holding up a placard outside a court reminding a jury of their right to find not guilty on the basis of their conscience), has been dismissed as 'fanciful' today (after a years wait).

"For scientists it is unequivocal: humans are to blame. All this is entirely consistent with predictions and repeated warnings. The only surprise is the speed of the change. Climate change is here. It is terrifying and it is just the beginning.

The era of global warming has ended.
The era of #GlobalBoiling has arrived.

The air is unbreathable, the heat is unbearable, and the level of fossil fuel profits and climate inaction is unacceptable. Leaders must lead." — António Guterres

@jackLondon @howardgreen In this you are right of course but we don't need to look far to see Mad Max style environmental chaos so car weights and numbers are likely to be driven down by that.
@jackLondon @howardgreen Structural batteries are battery packs which form part of the load bearing chassis and are being used in Teslas with other manufacturers copying.
@jackLondon @howardgreen Many EVs are now using LFP (Lithium Iron Phosphate) which don't catch fire. Lithium battery fires are rare now, as Lithium Ion batteries get replaced in new vehicles with LFP the MTBF will get longer. Battery life in new cars is already projected to be greater than car life meaning that many ex car batteries will be reused for storage when the original car is scrapped.
@jackLondon You have been polite enough. Good day to you too.
@jackLondon Obviously I accept that you are right in this.
@jackLondon Antagonism to cars in general I can understand. Where cars are deemed necessary I may agree that EV good and ICE bad ain't the truth, EV better and ICE worse however is true in terms of damage to our environment during the lifespan of the vehicle.
@jackLondon I agree. On a side issue, I have followed your account for a while, first on Twitter, now here and I thank you for your generally high quality input. I don't disagree with you often so please don't take these comments as evidence that I disagree with you in all things.
