This research has come up several times at a big climate conference: A huge majority of people are worried about climate change and want governments to do more to control the crisis. BUT they think they are in a tiny minority and nobody else cares. Everybody (almost) cares! You are not alone https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/climate-change-actions-are-far-more-popular-than-people-in-u-s-realize/

I strongly suspect this “invisible” hand of the market is just, like, SUPER white.

All I want is sweeping systemic changes, is that too much to ask??

"It’s a common misconception that EVs are more likely to catch fire, maybe because EV fires are more difficult to put out and frequently make the news. And car fires are dangerous and frightening, no matter what kind of vehicle is involved.

... study after study has found that EVs have a much lower incidence of catching fire than gas vehicles.

… In the US, EVs caught fire at a rate of 25 per 100,000 sold compared with 1,529 per 100,000 gas cars sold."

Hey mastadonia- I miss having some like-minded strangers to share thoughts with these days but can’t bring myself to use another Meta platform. I’ve been on mastodon since the great Elonification of Twitter but struggling to find my community here. if you’re seeing this, share your best suggestions for how I can find my community here. I’m a 🇨🇦 disabled science/health/disability wonk, work in non profit and love knitting, dogs, and adapted mountain biking (aMTB).

Team? Team. TEAM! Listen up.

Catherynne's figured it out too. She's got a great post up about how it's all about them trying to get us to surrender now.

They know that they only have this one last shot at this, and after this, they can't win, and then everything - EV. ER. Y. THING - changes for us.

If we win.

Which we will, if we work and work together...

...because whether you know it or not, _some_ of the cavalry we've been waiting for all these years are _already here_.

_Hold the goddamn line_.
