Healthy Environment Ruled A Human Right By World's Top Court, As Campaigners Hail 'Seismic' Win

25 Jul 2025 | Synopsis

In a landmark July 23 advisory opinion, the International Court of Justice (ICJ) ruled that every nation has a legal obligation under international law to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, affirming that a clean, healthy, and sustainable environment is a fundamental human right.

Fact Check: Renewables Not to Blame for Texas Power Price Spike

25 Jul 2025 | Synopsis

Fact Check: Against WSJ's claim, renewables did not drive the rise in Texas electricity bills.

Who Really Pays for the Trump-Japan Tariff Deal? American EV Buyers Might

24 Jul 2025 | Synopsis

American consumers - especially EV buyers - are the real payers in Trump's U.S.-Japan tariff deal, warns economist Steve Rattner. Tariffs on Japanese autos don't hurt Japan; they're passed through higher prices at U.S. dealerships. Even American-made EVs using Japanese parts may see cost increases. Though the deal includes Japanese investments, there's no guarantee of job gains. Increased EV prices could slow clean-tech adoption, underscoring the hidden costs of trade policy.

Dust Off : The Unexpected Side Effect Of Having More And More EVs On The Road

24 Jul 2025 | Synopsis

Electric vehicles reduce not only exhaust emissions but also brake dust - a major urban pollutant. A recent EIT Urban Mobility study in London, Milan, and Barcelona found EVs cut brake-dust pollution by 83% due to regenerative braking, significantly improving air quality. While heavier EVs slightly increase tire wear, non-exhaust emissions (brake, tire, road dust) still drop by ~38% overall. Better health, cleaner cities - a win for electrification.

White House Is Trying To Prop Up Coal, Oil, And Gas - But The Economics Of Fossil Fuel Are Failing

24 Jul 2025 | Synopsis

Nobody Wants Electric Supercars. But Why?

22 Jul 2025 | Synopsis

Electric supercars are struggling. With high-performance mainstream EVs like Hyundai's Ioniq 5 N offering 0‑60 mph in ~3.4 sec for ~$68K, buyers don't see value in paying 7‑figure sums for marginal gains. Supercar brands like Rimac, Koenigsegg, Pagani, Ferrari, and Lamborghini report flat demand for full-EV hypercars. Enthusiasts miss engine sound, emotion, and unique tactile feel -EVs excel in speed but lack character."
