Issue 2 | Should we charge our electric cars with nuclear, geothermal, or green energy? Or just scrap them?

Iss2/Bonus1 What the $%&! were we thinking? Planet-saving green energy tech we never developed
Thorium fission could provide humanity with 1000 years of clean, low resource nuclear power. Closed loop geothermal could nearly eliminate the need for utility batteries. These and many other ideas humanity has failed to develop.

Iss2/Extra Hydroelectric power emits more greenhouse gases than fossil fuels
Hydroelectric power is not green energy because hydroelectric dams release as much (if not more) greenhouse gases than fossil fuel power plants.

Iss2/Ch4 Highway to h*ck (part 2)
Why do fossil fuel corporations support carbon taxes? Why do mainstream economists think a green energy transition will lead to economic ruin? We conclude Issue 2 with the many reasons for optimism. (part 2 of 2)

Iss2/Ch4 Highway to h*ck (part 1)
Electric cars are a false solution to climate change. Fortunately, if we phased out cars in favor of walking, biking, and mass transit, your life would be happier, healthier, and more financially secure — without sacrificing mobility. (part 1 of 2)

Iss2/Ch3 When your green energy transition is addicted to a white, powdery substance
Using the lithium needs of electric cars as a case study, we explore how easy it would be to reduce the need for mining without sacrificing anything. Then, we uncover the sinister reason why a fossil fuel company invented the carbon footprint.

Iss2/Ch2 Do electric cars generate waste worse than nuclear power plants? The answer may surprise (and poison) you (part 2)
In Chapter 2, we look at the human and environmental costs of mining lithium, cobalt, rare earths, and nickel: critical minerals for phasing out fossil fuels. (part 2 of 2)

Iss2/Ch1 Dam you straight to h*ck (part 2)
In Chapter 1, we try to figure out what energy source is best to replace fossil fuels, but things go off the rails immediately…and we wind up with an extended discussion about mining waste? (part 2 of 2)
