(1/6/23) article: "As I watch my family strike out on foot across the fields into driving rain and gathering darkness, my wife holding each child’s hand, our new year plans in ruins, while I do what I can to make our dead car safe before abandoning it a mile short of home, full of luggage on a country lane, it occurs to me not for the first time that if we are going to save the planet we will have to find another way. Because electric cars are not the answer. Yes, it’s the Jaguar again. My doomed bloody £65,000 iPace that has done nothing but fail at everything it was supposed to do for more than two years now, completely dead this time, its lifeless corpse blocking the single-track road. I can’t even roll it to a safer spot because it can’t be put in neutral. For when an electric car dies, it dies hard...We filled up there last week on the way back from Cornwall, adding two hours to our four-hour journey, by which time Esther wasn’t speaking to me. She’s been telling me to get rid of the
iPace since it ruined last summer’s holidays in both Wales and Devon (“If you won’t let us fly any more, at least buy a car that can get us to the places we’re still allowed to go!”).But I kept begging her to give me one last chance, as if I’d refused to give up a mistress, rather than a dull family car. Until this time, a couple of miles from home, when a message flashed up on the dash: 'Assisted braking not available — proceed with caution.' Then: 'Steering control unavailable.' And then, as I inched off the dual carriageway at our turnoff, begging it to make the last mile, children weeping at the scary noises coming from both car and father: 'Gearbox fault detected.' CLUNK. WHIRRR. CRACK. And dead. Nothing. Poached elephant. I called Jaguar Assist (there is a button in the roof that does it directly — most useful feature on the car) who told me they could have a mechanic there in four hours (who would laugh and say, “Can’t help you, pal. You’ve got a software issue there. I’m just
a car mechanic. And this isn’t a car, it’s a laptop on wheels.”) So Esther and the kids headed for home across the sleety wastes, a vision of post-apocalyptic misery like something out of Cormac McCarthy, while I saw out 2022 waiting for a tow-truck. Again."
Big Green, Inc.'s revolving door just keeps on spinning.

(1/10/23) reports: "The U.S. Interior Department on Tuesday named Elizabeth Klein, a lawyer who worked in the Obama and Clinton administrations, to head the bureau that oversees offshore oil, gas and wind development. Klein will take over for the current head of the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Amanda Lefton, who has resigned from the post effective Jan. 19. She had initially been nominated by the White House to be the Deputy Interior Secretary under current chief Deb Haaland but was withdrawn from consideration in March 2021 amid opposition from moderate Alaska Republican Senator Lisa Murkowski, whose vote was needed for her confirmation, over concerns that Klein was opposed to oil development. Klein currently serves as a special adviser to Haaland and will not need to be confirmed as head of BOEM. 'The Interior Department is leading the effort to foster a clean energy future, and Liz will be critical to our efforts to meet the President’s ambitious goals to deploy affordable clean
energy to power homes across America and create good-paying jobs in the growing offshore wind industry,' Interior Chief of Staff Rachael Taylor said in a statement...Prior to joining the Biden administration, Klein worked as deputy director of the non-partisan State Energy & Environmental Impact Center at NYU School of Law, which supported state attorneys general who filed litigation to protect environmental regulations and advance climate policies."
It isn't hypocrisy, it's hierarchy.

(1/9/23) reports: "Values of the popular electric cars are in a tailspin as experts blame rising electric prices and swathes of new models arriving seriously damaging prices. The Model 3 is the worst-performing electric car, according to industry used car pricing experts Cap HPI, losing some 23 per cent or £9,900 in the last year alone. In a table of the worst-depreciating electric cars, Teslas take up three of the top five spots. The Model S is the second worst performer, losing 22 per cent in the last year. The Model X has lost 13.4 per cent in the last 12 months. Cap HPI generated the values of a one-year-old car each month and shared the data with Car Dealer. The figures compare to an average drop over the last 12 months for a one-year-old used car with 10,000 miles of just 2.2 per cent. The fall in Tesla used prices has accelerated in the latter months of 2022 and has continued into the new year. While electric cars in general have been badly hit in the used market, dropping
significantly more than petrol and diesel vehicles, it’s Tesla owners that have been feeling the pain."
