    I'm deeply sorry to hear this. My sincere condolences. My wife's mother suffered from MS, and the people who take care of those so afflicted should receive automatic sainthood.

    May you have all the strength needed to bear this loss.

    we will see much more electric trucks soon. de-carbonation is signed on accord de paris.
    we can see effect of climate change everyday, we must act about it.
    but what i see as a problem is how they want to do it., so i see this as a new opportunity for certain people to make money on green rather than real thing.

    when you see back story after battery production, about wind parks and solars you ask yourself is that worst than what we have now.

    transport takes only 15% of total energy, this amount is too low to force electric so much, there are fields where it is much easier to cut co2, take for example how many buildings are poorly insulated and waste huge amount of heating.
