Umm...Our planet has passed the heat threshold to sustain life going forth, over time.Over eight billion people, and every living thing are now at high risk of perishing with each species having it's own heat threshold, that many have passed, and many are at risk of extinction with habitat lose (that which help cool our planet) another major factor.Species include both flora and fauna.Combustible engine?"Is this wise and well thought out?".
I would NEVER let my precious children ride an electric bus, city or school. Does Guelph not keep up with the news of how dangerous these vehicles are? As usual, they have their green energy blinders on.
Not really, no. Way more gasoline car fires, whether you measure per fire, per vehicle bought or per mile.The news media just chooses to share EV fires far and wide every time they happen. For some reason.
I can understand supporting local and small businesses, but consumers work hard for their money. It's not charity for business owners. Nobody owes you their fare because you got here first.Being a business owner is hard, I get it. But this is a free market. When bigger competition shows up, the answer is to adapt and overcome, to sharpen your pricing, your service, your local advantage. Not lobby the city to keep competitors out and hope you fly under the radar.If you're going to gatekeep, do it with a service worth choosing. Not by lobbying to keep the competition out.
Again the FEDS with there push for electric vehicles and not having a proper electrical system in place. This kind of saving electricity is penny wise and dollar foolish / but it's an easy way to spend tax payers money trying to correct a mess you created.
Competition is good for everyone. It keeps current companies on their toes and forces them to find ways to stay in the race. The result is the customer gets some choices and perhaps more competitive rates.
Finally, a spot of good news on the Doug Ford front. It would be nice if he would spend more time and money on northern highways and healthcare as opposed to giving sweet deals to rich developers.
Oh please! This is beyond belief, beyond reality. These buses in the winter need to be topped up at all times, as the drain of energy for the heater is quite large, and 50% of our school term is in the winter. Last but extremely important that all our politicans avoid, there still isn't an environmental responsible way for disposing of these huge, used, retired, lithium batteries.
Let me get this straight you have a problem with a deal where the Ford family might make money, with zero proof. Wait till you hear about this guy named Mark Carney and how much he's making himself as PM of Canada with 107 conflicts of interest.
The technology is advancing quickly to solve those problems. It's amazing to me that while combustion engines are so damaging, people get so upset that others are trying to find better ways.
