It's from my friend, Jeff, whom I originally met off of Mastodon, back in 2022. We met in person in 2023 & exchanged plants🪴We've stayed friends over the years. We are working towards similar community building goals, in separate areas of the island. Ideally, would love to have a full food security, localized food systems 'spine', running West-East/South-North, across #VancouverIsland.
Jeff lives up island with his wife & kids. He also works in #nonprofit #FoodSecurity & #environmental #stewardship. He works for #Greenways #LandTrust in #CampbellRiver :

The importance of electric cars in the fight against Global Warming

twitter and environmentalism

In recent years, Global Warming has become one of the most debated and worrying issues worldwide. The increase in greenhouse gas emissions from fossil fuel burning has led to an average land temperature increase, which has serious consequences for our planet and for the life that lives in it. One of the most effective ways to combat Global Warming is through the use of electric cars, an innovative technology that is gaining more and more prominence in the automotive market.

Global Warming and its consequences

Global Warming is the process by which the average temperature of the earth increases due to the accumulation of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. These gases, such as carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O), act as a “blanket” that catches the heat of the sun and prevents space from escaping. As a result, the earth’s temperature rises and this has a significant impact on our climate and ecosystems in general.

Global Warming has a series of serious consequences. They include the melting of polar caps and glaciers, the increase in sea level, the change in rain patterns, the alteration of ecosystems and the loss of biodiversity. In addition, Global Warming can also have negative effects on human health, since it can increase the incidence of respiratory and cardiovascular diseases.

The solution: electric cars

One of the main sources of greenhouse gas emissions is transport, especially vehicles that burn fossil fuels such as gasoline and diesel. Electric cars, on the other hand, work with rechargeable batteries and do not emit polluting gases during use.

electric cars, also known as electric cars or electric vehicles (VE), use electric motors to propel. These engines are fed by a rechargeable battery that is loaded by connecting the vehicle to a source of electricity, such as a domestic plug or a fast charging station. By using electricity instead of fossil fuels, electric cars significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Environmental benefits of electric cars

Electric cars have a series of important environmental benefits. First, by reducing greenhouse gas emissions, they help curb Global Warming and mitigate their impacts. In addition, electric vehicles do not emit atmospheric pollutants, such as sulfur dioxide (SO2), nitrogen oxides (NOX) and suspended particles, which have negative effects on the quality of the air and on the health of people. /p>

In addition, electric cars also have a lower impact on natural resources. Not depending on oil and other fossil fuels, they help reduce the demand for these non -renewable resources, thus avoiding the degradation of ecosystems and negative impacts associated with their extraction and transport.

Economic and social benefits of electric cars

In addition to environmental benefits, electric cars also have a positive impact on the economy and society in general. First, the use of electric vehicles can help reduce the dependence of countries in the importation of oil, which has a positive impact on commercial balance and energy safety.

In addition, the manufacture and sale of electric cars can generate employment and support the development of a sustainable electrical industry. They can also help diversify the energy matrix of countries, promoting the generation and use of renewable energy.

Challenges and limitations of electric cars

Despite the numerous benefits, electric cars still face some challenges and limitations that limit their mass adoption. One of the main challenges is limited load infrastructure. Although there are more and more load stations available, it is not as convenient or quick to load an electric car such as filling a gasoline tank.

In addition, electric cars still have limited autonomy compared to gasoline or diesel vehicles. While battery technology has improved significantly in recent years, there is still a lot of space for the development and improvement of batteries. This means that electric cars are more suitable for short or urban trips, and not so much for long distances.

CONCLUSIONS

Electric cars play a crucial role in the fight against Global Warming. These vehicles are a cleaner and sustainable alternative to internal combustion cars, since they do not emit greenhouse gases or air pollutants during use. In addition to environmental benefits, electric cars also offer economic and social advantages.

If we want to combat Global Warming and ensure a sustainable future for coming generations, it is crucial to promote the adoption and use of electric cars. This implies investing in the load infrastructure, developing more efficient battery technologies and promoting policies that promote transition to cleaner electrical mobility. With the joint effort of governments, car manufacturers and consumers, we can make a difference in the fight against Global Warming and ensure a greener and sustainable future for all.

TITLE:
Paris Just Turned One Of Its Busiest Squares Into An Urban Forest

URL:
youtube.com/watch?v=iqIJNjsaiqo

DESCRIPTION:
Paris just transformed one of it’s busiest squares into an urban forest!

Over 2,500 square meters of concrete in front of City Hall were ripped up and replaced with 4 groves, 150 trees, and thousands of plants.

Some trees are already over 10 meters tall.

They’ll help cool the area during heatwaves, clean the air, and create space for birds, insects, and shade-loving plants (and people too!).

This is the third forest Paris has planted right in the city, and a fourth is already planned.

By 2030, Paris plans to plant over 170,000 trees and cover half the city with water-permeable surfaces — from green roofs to mini-gardens and tree-lined streets.

Would you like to see your city turn concrete into forest too?
