Great, now create recyclable batteries and with materials that do not come from mines that totally destroy the ecosystem, created cost-effective and environmentally friendly green energy, make electrical car cheaper, apply this to any cars that drive in the EU, make electric cars that have as much range as thermal engines, and that last as long over time.

​

I don't really see it as a uplifting news... As usual, it really look like that they voted this to please "3 or 4 eco people" and give themselves a good image. Whereas basically, it's impossible to apply, and it won't be done on the date indicated.

What is uplifting about crapitalism, which ruined the environment, now making profit off of it? Why are we happy that companies can make profit off of destruction? What is this timeline?

And are companies actually doing what they are saying? I highly doubt it because lying and cover up is the norm these days.

I'm saying that $625 is a typical expense we are already used to paying. What's one more of them? I'm saying if you have $250k of the house paid off, chances are you can drop $625 without it affecting you. And no, we shouldn't save all of our money. Buy a PS5 and enjoy if it doesn't hurt you financially.

My take:

Moore just appointed the former executive director of the Chesapeake Bay Foundation (which is a legit conservation organization) to head Maryland's Dept. of Natural Resources. ORP and other fisheries groups flipped out because they don't want actual regulations and environmental laws might prevent them from making the maximum amount of money.

This is Moore throwing them a bone.
