Sigh. People need to educate themselves on radiation. Its not overly complex and it’s actually really interesting. There’s no threat here, bananas are more dangerous.
But yeah, dude had no standing on which to bring suit. That doesn’t mean reddit won anything, it means the guy behind WSB is a douche which everyone already knew.
Just to move away from the article, I want to make a comment about the car itself.
Over the 2010s, the SUVs were really at the point where they all looked like totally generic boring blobs. Just an shape. Souless and dull. All the same. You’d really struggle to pick a stand out one out of a line up of Vauxhall, Citroen, Ford, Kia, Hyundai, VW etc. There of course was some brands like Porsche, BMW and Audi which were different, but they were genuine evolutions of an already pretty timeless and classic look.
Then Ford and Hyundai came to the table with some absolutely great striking and honestly futuristic designs to kick off their EV range a couple of years ago with the 2020 F-series and Tucsons respectively and by extension the IONIQ ranges. Not to mention the absolute beauty of the Rivian.
And now everyone is doing the same. Rather than look to find an individual and unique design language, everyone copies the pioneer (most times). With the rare exception of the marques who have the confidence to go their own way (a-la BMW, Porsche, Volvo).
Anyway, there’s my totally off topic 2p on the matter.
Since China (with the US) is one of the major offenders of fossil fuels, I am curious as to whether we see more dramatic climate change impacts in China specifically, or if that impact is going to be diffused across the world. China is a big country.
Since China is the primary driver of sustainable development globally, I’m excited to see what technology and mitigation strategies they come up with and make available to the world over in the coming decades. China is a big country with huge potential, and they are already making an outsized impact.
Does this help qualify them for some of the Inflation Reduction Act credits, or is that tied specifically to where the battery materials are sourced from?
