this was from the science community too
Some people just plain prefer electric power. Even Henry Ford's wife Clara wouldn't go near a Model T; she drove a Detroit Electric. One of these cars set a record of traveling 241 miles on a single charge in 1915 (yes, it had regenerative braking just like new electrics). And at that time, with thousands of these cars around, New York City had charging stations everywhere. Things change, then sometimes change back.Oh Im sure fuel has a impact and with the population there is . its huge. But I think us as users have been use to it for so long. Some of us think its part of life. Alot of us depend on it as well. As for automakers sink or swim with no hand outs. Thats my opinion. Electric cars and steam cars were a dream to some folks from days gone by and they failed. I dont think the were handed any funds to try to recover. Some great ideas back in the day after the horse buggys

I'm not sure of your position? Those pics are correct. NY harbor is 12" higher in just 80 years. This being measured now. Greenland's ice sheet is 20+% less than just 50 years ago. This **** is happening. Climate does change naturally. But that is measured in thousands of years. What is being witnessed now? In decades. Besides. If you're a performance believer? Tesla P100D vs Dodge Demon? The clock don't lie.

Because maybe land shelves differ from place to place? Are you kidding?Funny, I found these in a quick search of "sea level rise in last 100 years".....
Since at least the start of the 20th century, the average global sea level has been rising. Between 1900 and 2016, the sea level rose by 16–21 cm (6.3–8.3 in.)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sea_level_rise
How much has sea level risen over the last 100 years? Sea level change over the last 100 years can be estimated from tide gauge data. These data reflect both water level changes and vertical land movement and the two have to be separated in order to estimate changes in sea level. Another problem is that the tide gauge data are not evenly distributed, but show a bias towards the continental coastal margins of the Northern Hemisphere, in particular, North America, Europe and Japan. Despite the uncertainties, global mean sea level is thought to have risen substantially over the last 100 years. Based on available analyses the rise over the last 100 years has been in the range 10-20 cm.

....so how does one explain why the water in NY harbor is higher than the rest of the world?
This is not an opinion. It's science. And the "denying" crowd just needs to be ignored.
With their absolutely no facts or studies counter argument.
Lol. Actually we might be one of the few places that might benefit from change. But I wouldn't hold my breath. (Unless have too?)What the hell happened to Minnesnowta? Did the wind change direction?
That cap is staying off now.
You're right a bit off topic. I don't think it's a surprise Musk's ego is finally catching up to him. What the hell was that launching one of his car in orbit? That's just too stupid.How about
getting back to the org. topic at hand ?
Tesla in trouble
not going down this climate change, globalist grants, tax & spend, political BS
