China now has 46 power reactors in operation with a combined installed capacity of more than 45 GWe. China will add another 11 nuclear reactors that would add 11 GWe of electricity over the next two years. Afterwards, there is a gap in China’s development of nuclear power. Only two nuclear reactors are scheduled to …
David Attenborough made a lot of nature documentaries and is interviewed by the BBC as some kind of climate expert. In an interview with the BBC, Attenborough and the UK’s Chief Scientist (probably UK Chief Science Advisor Mark Walport) celebrated the Paris Accords in 2015. The UK Chief Scientist was “walking on air” when they …
Tesla Shanghai Gigafactory will produce Model 3 and Model Y cars for greater China region. Elon Musk Shanghai Giga will produce affordable versions of 3/Y for greater China. All Model S/X and higher cost versions of Model 3/Y will still be built in US for Worldwide market including China. The Model Y will be a …
The Tesla Model 3 had the best electronics teardown expert Sandy Munro’s team has ever seen. It had the lowest number of hoses, 40% less harnesses, and the electric motors are smaller, lighter, and more powerful than the competition. Munro says if Tesla optimizes the Model 3’s production in China, the electric vehicle will generate …
China’s Ministry of Ecology and Environment is targeting having 90+ percent diesel trucks capable of meeting emission standards by 2020. China has more than half of the world’s big trucks and these trucks cause most of the particulate air pollution. Particulate air pollution kills about 1 million people per year. They will improve the quality …
The Doomer David Attenborough hates humans and data. He desperately wants fewer humans and ignores data which shows how wrong his ideas are. This is a dangerous level of ignorance. This ignorance and constantly wrong belief has harmed millions of people and will harm millions more if is not 100% refuted. This is a simple …
Tropical forests store about a third of Earth’s carbon and about two-thirds of its above-ground biomass. Most climate change models predict that as the world warms, all of that biomass will decompose more quickly, which would send a lot more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. But new research presented at the American Geophysical Union’s 2018 …
Terrapower and Bill Gates are pulling back from a pilot project in China because of the trade war and bad US-China relations. TerraPower has a traveling-wave reactor (TWR) which would run on depleted uranium. It could be dramatically safer and substantially cheaper than current nuclear reactors. In 2019, Bill Gates will speak out more about …
How fast can Tesla and China complete Gigafactory 3? The money, permits and a local government-owned construction company are all in place. China can build large factories in weeks. Tesla built an entire general assembly line in 3 weeks when they were under pressure to increase Model 3 production. Online ordering for Tesla cars in …
Tesla produced and delivered at electric cars at the rate of nearly 1,000 vehicles per day. Production in Q4 grew to 86,555 vehicles, 8% more than their prior all-time high in Q3. This included: 61,394 Model 3 vehicles, in line with our guidance and 15% more than Q3. 25,161 Model S and X vehicles, consistent …
Many space plans propose different space vehicles for different roles and activities. There is a launcher that goes from Earth to low earth orbit or the launcher goes directly to higher orbits with lower mass. The SpaceX Super Heavy Starship should be flying to orbit by 2020 with a fully reusable rocket. It will be …
