It does, because the batteries for electric cars have a reliance on rare earth metals.
Lol the downvotes are hilarious. We will not solve climate change with electric cars. Public transit in walkable communities with niche uses for cars and trucks are the only way forward.
As seen in the Wikipedia article, sodium ion batteries also require rare earth metal anodes, or toxic materials like mercury which is also bad. Better than lithium ion, but still generally not great. The best option would be aluminum air batteries, which should be easily accessible and are extremely recyclable
I’ve never had a Facebook account or any other social media. I know they keep shadow profiles, but I’ve never given permission. I never had any interest and frankly still don’t....
The only standard social media account I’d recommend is linkedin, literally only because it’s meant to network for jobs. Don’t get me wrong, it’s full of desperate corporate worship and therefore miserable to use. However, the real point is networking for career advancement and job listings
My thoughts too. I figured that the FAA would prevent this from happening for any reason except emergencies
Edit: c’mon folks, I’m not asserting that this is an emergency or that this is against regulations. I thought it was, but if this is a normal landing then it’s simply a surprise to me that it happens.
Counterpoint, getting high and taking a commercial flight now is awesome. On my last flight, I had a few edibles before boarding and watched interstellar during the flight. As they were landing on the first planet, the plane hit some turbulence. 10/10 most immersive experience ever
Unions have been gaining class consciousness since their inception. It took a general strike of only white people in New Orleans for unions to realize that they will never succeed unless they accept and fight for black people too. The Wilmar 8 strike was a turning point for unions accepting women. Not to mention that this is probably from the IWW, which has always accepted women.
Neither. I’m saying that worker-led organizations are prone to the biases of the workers that make up the organization, but their reliance on class consciousness means that unions never keep their status quo bias for long. The president of the UAW today is a feminist and socialist. The CWA organizers I work with are anti racist and socialists.
ok and? I’m talking about important individuals that play a vital part in building and directing worker power. You’re discussing rando teamsters. Yes, there are shitty people in unions. Yes, at one point unions didn’t have the knowledge they have today. That history is important. I won’t deny or downplay it, there are some unions that have some very ugly history. However, unions today are not like they were in the past, because unions are solely led by the workers, and those MAGA fascists are a minority in every union in the country. But like I said before, this probably came from the IWW, which never had those problems.
I’ve never seen canned celery, but I imagine that it would be far too mushy for chicken noodle soup. Besides, this is the quick and dirty version of the soup, since it takes a minute to chop the celery and then all that’s left is letting it simmer for 20 minutes. Obviously it tastes much better with fresh ingredients
You’ll definitely get a kick out of it, but the reason it’s called prairie dog town is because it’s just plain natural habitat for the adorable little things. You can get a bit more info about prairie dogs at the devil’s tower visitor center
The inside part of your shirt around your waist is usually clean enough to just wipe your glasses clean without any cleaner. Rub in small circular motions until you get the entire lense
When the magnet got glued to the car, it became part of the car so it wouldn’t actually move. The reason it moves when it isn’t glued is because the hand keeps pulling the magnet away
Ancient wisdom often sounds like common sense now that it is commomly taught. What is some ancient wisdom that we no longer teach because it was wrong?
