Suits the Country…

As reported by TechCrunch in July 2018, aviation currently accounts for four percent of global greenhouse gas emissions. With this flight, Norway announced plans to do their part to cut into that number and fly all short-haul flights from its airports on electric planes by 2040. While current models of the Alpha Electro G2 aircraft only seat two people, multiple companies around the world are working on plans to develop commercial-ready electric aircrafts. No commercial airplanes are currently in the production stages of development, but the officials believe they will be ready in time to be implemented prior the the self-imposed 2040 deadline.

Norwegian officials believe the goal is possible due to the layout of the country’s airports. Commercial airports are spread across the country but the vast majority connect via short flights on smaller aircrafts, making it a viable step towards the country’s goals for reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

Chevron oil running progressive research adds July 2021..

It is human to try, according to Chevron they are looking at everything from electric , solar , and fusion to diversify energy. It looks like one politician found a way to save the environment by getting at least a half century of use from a bush wheeled airplane here in Merritt BC, It is human to try, and every one can support future concerns in their own way. If it suits them and the country!

100 million cars off the road…

A concept that immediate relief may need 100s of millions of cars off the road may not be that far away for North America. Rotating seasons of use restrictions by imposing mandated even odd day licence plate use may be a proactive measure to curb consumption. That measure would surely produce reliable data on cause and effect. Something to think about on our next 50 degree day. Were all in this together!

Transit is an option, including air transit where it fits. The saying we will overcome this by hard work, and application of good morals , and a little belief may not work on the macro level but in spots it still flies.

2018 a record year for EV sales in he US.

A 64 % increase in electric vehicles in the US in 2018 added over 2 million EVs being used in the US. The world wide number of EVs is something over 2 percent. The current EVs can be enjoyed and have a stand alone carbon foot print about 3 time lees then fueled cars. Watts per meter value goes way down manufacturing from scratch and if you generate electricity where you are by burning fossil fuels. In any case they are enjoyable to some people and surely don not poison your immediate life space like fuel can. Norway came into 2021 with 49 percent of sales being electric this is somewhat by decree however the coercion is probably because it suits their situation, and the population agrees with it. That sort of thing does not fly as well in our North American culture. Choice still remains supreme.

Tesla sold 160,000 units in 2019

Tesla is still the driver in some of this, selling 160,000 units in 2019. The projection for the US is 20 percent of sales by 2027 how much of its share tesla will have is likely to decline with most manufactures having a EV product in the sales..

Cars in operation in the US.

At the end of the 4 quarter in the United States there were 281.4 million cars in operation. They did not punt to EV that quarter as they never have as yet in substantives way.

We recommend purchasing a n EV at this time as they can be very enjoyable safe and effective if you plan your consumption of power.

Enjoy an electric aircraft if you can.

The same goes for EV planes be an early opted person for a EV plane it should be enjoyable and maybe can replace your car. The first FAA approved EV plane was the Alpha Electro in 2014. It it had nothing to do with the Bob Cummings show in the 50s and 60s and everything to do with reality. What ever that is.

TGIF-Spring rights of rebirth…

Spring sees a long haul to the few months of summer heat. In the time from March equinox April goes to May with differing drive that sees a rebirth of life and continuation of species. ( good hope) . Collapse of some species is sometimes a mystery as is the rise of disease something that is not earned or deserved it just is. A lot of things respond to the natural powers in cycle and in sometimes in revolt.

Connected

Rebirth likes its cousin death and they have a connection , call it the nitrogen cycle, natural selection or what ever you like the unction of life is a very powerful force. Some years it is viewed in peace and beauty others in violence and blood but life fights to go on.

Earth is a magnet

Geo forces mount power on the lake of chemicals which is the earth and the force of heat and friction bring destruction that in time proves to be rebirth of precious life. No one person can beat the program for ever as it will sooner then later take them back to its fold. So be at peace friends all is well and we are actors in a drama that is as old as time itself and will always rise again.

Fight the fight you can’t hurt it..

Go with the flow and stay your wrath you are a piece that belongs to this dynamic that has no end. Unless you cave to the fear that it is not right and make only your peace to change. KDG

Be good to other and yourself ..

Somehow that energy of goodness is eternal…
