The race across Europe to build green steel plants - BBC News

Another interesting read. Lots of jobs.

Baby steps, but appreciate the effort of the Swedes. As an architect who has specified tons of steel and 3rd generation Swede in the US all of these ideas move us forward in helping us to survive our future.

It's pretty sad to watch and clearly a mental health issue - he's the only one in this thread where is contribution to the forum are threads like this, anti-vax "science" one and most recently troll baiting one about genders (what a surprise). He never answers any questions directly claiming he already did and then claims a "win". His existence has been pretty damn miserable.

Hello; My stance about genders was a traditional one and did get some likes. I have no issue with vaccines which work. That the traditional definition of "working" needed to be altered for the Covid mRNA shots was a clue. That you and the other two resort to high school like putdowns in the last few posts is a fall back much too common.

You resemble that comment

Again just like on the thread he got himself banned from - he will NEVER actually accept anything or give his opinion, just argue AGAINST everything. He is just a troll.

you resemble that comment…..in fact far worse than anyone!

A bunch of guys on a mustang forum who think they have all the answers to save the planet.

When you have nothing to add always go for the put down. It makes one feel so damn good.

As opposed to a guy on a Mustang forum who knows for sure he doesn't!

Being a Mustang owner is pretty good credentials. But if you're not....

If not, you throw 24s on your Nissan Sentra and hope no one will notice.

Anyway....

I didn't realize the EV market was so small... more than likely a large percentage in my area due to where I am...

EVs Made Up 5.6 Percent Of US Car Market In 2022 Driven By Tesla
The Tesla Model Y alone accounted for 30 percent of the US EV market last year.

Hello; Well seems i made my point stick pretty well. The last few who have lashed out at me are no longer disputing it. Low concept putdowns.

To avoid confusion the point is and has been for years now that benefits from stopping CO2 (use which ever definition you favor) (net zero-constant concentration-zero emissions) are way off in the distant future. It is merely a way to focus the absurdness of some of these agenda concepts. That any significant Co2 emission reduction is pretty much impossible. Too many places and people around the world (China & India to name just two) are solid into burning coal for decades to come.
The explosion of the Nord Stream pipeline last year is reported to be one of the largest single event releases of natural gas (methane) ever. Apparently, part of the Ukraine conflict which itself is releasing huge amounts of carbon in various ways. From the running of the war machines to the burning and destruction of those same machines and the buildings they send up in flames.

In the US - It is huge globally.

Tesla sold 711899 Model Y's globally last year which is about the same (772806) as the F series Ford! It is also the third best selling car globally. Toyota still hold top spot by some margin globally with the Rav4 at 973957 of which a lot will be hybrids as well.

But most interesting is that 6 cars in the global top 10 for EV's were Chinese. Only Tesla (2) VW (1) and Hyundai (1) were also in the top 10

Were GM ever actually pulling back? The OP article actually said they were cutting ICE plant capacity to concentrate on EV R&D.
