A catalytic converter must remain clog-free to see your Aston Martin performing fuel-efficiently. However, for certain reasons, it becomes clogged on occasion. Make yourself aware of the signs of clogging so that you can fix everything before an expensive burden. Have a look over this graphical presentation & acquire all probable knowledge about the symptoms of a clogged catalytic converter.

Renault Emblème Concept, 2024. A crossover prototype with an FCEV powertrain using hydrogen as a range-extender. The Emblème uses natural and recycled materials for 90% fewer lifetime emissions than an equivalent family car. It will be presented at the Paris Motor Show next week

I do think shatterstar would be kind of a swiftie. I'm sorry women. I think he'd be into the theatrics and glamour of her whole shtick. I think he would like her lyrics and her music videos.

i think climate change discourse often uncovers ways that people have trouble thinking about things on a certain scale… for example it feels counterintuitive to say that on the one hand, the US is iirc the second biggest emitter as a country and the biggest per capita (since number one is china whose population is famously quite large), and on the other, if we waved a magic wand tomorrow and the US went fully net zero, that would not really have a huge impact on the situation as a whole. but it’s true, because there are just that many more people living Not In The US. or like, it is both true that taylor swift traveling is probably responsible for more emissions in a year than you or i would be in several lifetimes, and that banning private jet use entirely in every single country in the world would be a drop in the bucket at best because it’s a relatively small subset of a relatively small fraction of global emissions. a lot of ostensibly justice-focused climate rhetoric has a very moralistic viewpoint on what we might call disproportionate emitters - which is why many people read a sentence like “taylor swift’s private jet use is mathematically negligible in the grand scheme of things” and assume it’s some kind of ethical or moral defense of taylor swift (or the US, or 1%, or whatever) - but i am starting to feel like “what we really need to do is hold the rich accountable” is just as much performative magical thinking as whatever alleged greenwashed bandaid someone is bringing it up to criticize, because saying it feels radical or serious but betrays a pretty fundamental misunderstanding of the actual scale of the problem.

Does the HumVEE qualify for the tax credit?

Nope it absolutely does not.

“Great American road trip is going to be electric”

It’s gunna be a long trip, and it costs about 70-90 bucks worth of electricity to fully charge its battery.

Can an average income individual afford the cost of an electric vehicle?

God. No.

“You shouldn’t make fun of people’s penis size!” You’re right, it’s such a silly, arbitrary thing to bring up, not even worthy of acknowledgement. Certainly not the kind of acknowledgement that would expose your whereabouts to the police as you try to evade the law for sex trafficking crimes.

Why you're coughing more today: Atlanta's high ozone alert

Atlanta has a "code orange" air quality alert today due to high ozone concentration, a chemical reaction between sunlight, oxygen, & pollution from cars, power plants, factories, etc.

(Sounds like car traffic makes it harder for pedestrians to breathe)

People in sensitive groups, such as asthma sufferers, may experience watering eyes, coughing, throat irritation, chest pain, and breathing difficulty. Try to limit your time outside, especially in the middle of the day.

Also, let's please stop polluting the air so much. How? From the EPA website:

"On Days when High Ozone Levels are Expected, Take these Extra Steps to Reduce Pollution:

> Choose a cleaner commute - share a ride to work or use public transportation.

> Combine errands and reduce trips. Walk to errands when possible.

> Avoid excessive idling of your automobile.

> Refuel your car in the evening when its cooler.

> Conserve electricity and set air conditioners no lower than 78 degrees.

> Defer lawn and gardening chores that use gasoline-powered equipment, or wait until evening."

Good tips. Notice that several of them revolve around cars.

Personally, I also recommend that the world focus on multifamily housing for the long run, which I'm committed to for several reasons, including the lessened burden on energy (shared walls = less AC/heating energy needed) and lessened burden from lawn-care pollution, and the way that density supports public transit.

I know it's an alternate timeline and half a century away but I'm going to be honest it feels a little immersion breaking to be in a game set in america without any huge fuck-off luxury SUVs running around, you know? and where's the ford f500 fuck truck with a 6ft grill and wide loadbearing hips and bright white paint job that's never seen an inch of dust in its life?

So...this is the second time this year that we've had to have a conversation about extreme weather impacting a GP. Is it time to talk about climate change and how F1 can reduce their emissions or....?

[suenitos]

it was like 113F where i live the other week. and i know states around me are super hot too so it’s not surprising these hurricanes are getting massive :(

omg i heard :( yeah thats like super not normal either like. im trying really hard to keep it together and not be like its so over party for soo many things in life but with the climate especially its like guys...............we might be a little very fucked just a smidge...... 😭

What morons. Have I mentioned that I hate living in this part of NY and the tedium of the neverending rules made by people watching too much Fox News? Time to comb through NY's Electric Vehicle Rights Act because this seems illegal in respect to the cars considering the building doesn't even have attached garages. Might as well ban laptops since they have lithium ion batteries too!

Please don't comment saying "Well although electric vehicle fires are less common they are more deadly." I am aware. Installation of chargers by a proper electrician and annual inspections go a long way.
