There are hundreds of thousands of prisoners in jail get them sorting trash

It would be a great range extender if it used Natural Gas for fuel.

Everyone would likely agree with you that tornadoes are getting more common and more extreme and are happening in more unusual locations, but climate scientists and meteorologists have been predicting this increase in severe weather for decades. We knew this was going to happen. Why, and how? Climate change. The earths average temperature increasing is what is throwing everything off. More storms, increased severity of the storms, and storms that would ordinarily be deemed unusual are becoming more common, and it is EXACTLY what climate change predicts. Yet there are so many climate change deniers out there, yet they know and understand the predicted outcome...

They want to run it like a Silicon Valley type company. It don’t work like that

EV is not going to take over ICE any time soon. The power grid is nowhere near capable of handling the load. Having said that, diesel-electric trains are one of the most efficient modes of transportation; far more eficient than trucks. So yeah, I would be all in favor of using a more efficient gas engine to generate electricity for a hybrid car. Hybrid cars make sense, but we still have to spend God knows what to upgrade the grid, and at the source of that grid, we will still be burning a ton of either natural gas and coal. So we will use more of those. We should be looking at newer nuclear power generation tech for the grid, but that is a political hit topic. France has invested in nuclear, and power is way cheaper than neighboring Germany, which has shut down nuclear in favor of wind and solar. They have their place, but do not do welll as the backbone of the grid. One last thing to consider. Battery chemistry. There is nothing environmentally clean about batteries. From mining the contents, to proper disposal, batteries are hazardous. There is no free ride, unfortunately. All we can do is allow as much innovation as we can, to find the best fit. And it will probably be a mix of several sources of power, depending upon location, country, economy size, etc. Great video. Grest presentation.

CO2 helps plants grow. Our planet is 5% greener than 20 years ago, thanks to CO2. We are still in an ice age let's get out of the ice age and melt this fucken ice. The dinosaurs had 3000 ppm of co2, and their temperature was only 27 Celsius. We have 430 ppm only 0.04 percent of our atmosphere. Our weakening magnetosphere is what is driving climate change, not CO2.

Way too many comments about funneling the fires cause into a natural box. Oops, explain the melted aluminum (not) or how the trees and grass near to buildings and even the Banyon tree were only lightly singed if at all. Way to many indicators that the cause for the fire was not natural at all. FYI, could not listen to it all as the commentator was simply too narrow minded in the first 6 minutes to look at the obvious. Of course that is like anyone in the legacy media mode who stretched the natural causes way to far, just doesn't work for me and many of those who lived thru it.

Hi Ricky, I have a question for you. Can I cancel my home broadband and collect info from my sunsynk solar system using the sunsynk app on my 4g mobile phone?

Hi Ricky, great video. Could you please do a follow up when they’ve done a full scale and look at the LCOS?

What if Carbon Dioxide is really The Problem?

We need more CO2. We need to burn oil and coal and have forest fires to keep carbon as CO2 in the atmosphere. Without CO2 in our air, all life goes extinct. Promote the healthy recycling of carbon !

I really like this channel, and the quality is usually great.. but the script on this video is hot garbage.

Answer? Tax the rich. Automate and socialize everything. Come on, human growth is meant for wealth magnets. They want it. Because it makes them more.

Thanks!

In one of the comments, @brianhirt5027 said that "Who says that needs to stop? We got a functionally endless supply of resources to feed it. Just look UP. All we gotta do is climb into the sky & figure out how to survive & thrive there." I don't know about survive and thriving in the space, but I do agree with the fact that we have unlimited resources up there and we need to extract it somehow. But the question is who does it benefit? At some point we need a fine balance between capitalism and socialism. For societies with aging population, they need to tilt a bit towards the socialism. And for the young countries, extreme capitalism should work until it doesn't. But again, the important stuff is finding that fine balance so that the remaining young people aren't frustrated with the system.

@twobitdavinci can they make it run on water or hydrogen?

Little disingenuous when you say we need carbon dioxide to keep the planet warm, without also saying it's the main source of PLANT FOOD. No one ever talks about the fact that the planet has never been greener in recorded history, because we have higher, though negligible, CO2 levels today. Yes, the CO2 we're all complaining about, the plants LOVE IT. And they process it very well.

Best sponsored ad I’ve ever witnessed , for sure gonna use it even tho I’m broke

Elderly suicide or death from neglect, abandonment and accidents is going to increase dramatically. Even if young people choose to do so, a society where some large percent of the work force is geriatric care, is a system that is eating itself. While i believe this problem will, in reality, solve itself naturally, and the human population will find an equilibrium, new technologies could certainly arise that make life very comfortable and very cheap. A vast change in economics in some sectors, like medicine, seems imminent. Or maybe the robots will just do everything for us and the pursuit of wealth will become a quaint and irrelevant endeavor.

Gasoline engines are less than 30%, they are around 25% thb.

Such a potential game changer. Fingers crossed

Lithium battery $150/Kwh, Polar night Energy $85/Kwh, Batsand $2/Kwh. The insane potential of DIY sand battery.

Wait is this a solar panel ad?

Chemtrails 💯

WE could double the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere RIGHT NOW and it would NOT do anything except promote plant growth .. then we could actually feed EVERYONE. FACT

Peltier devices could help recoup some energy lost if attached to either the hot gas discharge or anywhere with a big swing of temperature difference.

Thanx for an interesting demonstration of different ICE's! Maybe somebody has already commented about this, but I believe you happened to show a Stihl 4-stroke blower, with their '4mix' engine, as an exampel of something 2-stroke powered.

That shit makes me anxious for some damn reason

Honestly, i can imagine myself living in a prefabricated small home. What do i need? A bed, bath, kitchen, some storage for both food and clothing and some space for PC Hardware (I don´t need TV). It would also possibly solve the housing problem and show middle finger to all the developers, who strive to make expensive condos no one can afford to live in.

Think about using solar panels to create electricity needed for lighting in vertical farming... ...what a waste of ressources.

Sorry...the problem isn't Tiny homes...Its LA/Calf and Zoning laws and local governments trying to keep Tiny homes out of the cities. They are pushing 15 min cities and stuffing humans in boxes. like PODs.....in other words Stay in your pod and eat ze bugz. Zoning laws and building codes are made to keep tiny homes and alternative building structures away...after all you don't want your tax base to own cheap housing and those who already are paying through the nose don't want those "tiny home people" near them lowering their property values. Its not a housing problem...its a government (tax) and real estate problem.

Remember when the earth was heading towards overpopulation? Pepperidge Farm remembers.

so much electricity i've kept aquariums with live plants since the 1990s. i could have told y'all that it's not going to work

OMG! great video. you kicked all the tires and moved all the furniture. i love it!

More than 99.9% of peer-reviewed scientific papers agree that climate change is mainly caused by humans, according to a new survey of 88,125 climate-related studies. The research updates a similar 2013 paper revealing that 97% of studies published between 1991 and 2012 supported the idea that human activities are altering Earth’s climate. The current survey examines the literature published from 2012 to November 2020 to explore whether the consensus has changed. Search for this, "Cornell Chronicle, More than 99.9% of studies agree: Humans caused climate change".

Okay. Lets look at the conditions of your report. First mistake: You chose what could be the _most_ expensive place to live in the city of Los Angeles, in what is probably the most restrictive state to build in. All of your negatives disappear in most Midwestern states. Land outside of cities in the Midwest is downright cheap compared to Downtown LA. Duh. Does that mean I might have problems getting infrastructure like water, power, sewage, and internet? Not really. Most rural land in the Midwest is _farm_ land. That means they're already pretty set for line infrastructure, like electricity, telephones, even broadband. Water in truly rural areas means a well or rain catch. Sewage means a septic system will need to be installed but that's not the deal breaker you might think it is. _Everybody_ already has stuff like that, and putting in a new one is just not that hard. The Midwest also has something else that makes this a _lot_ easier: Trailer parks. Now not everyone would want to put their $60,000 house in a trailer park, but most Midwesterners aren't dumb enough to spend that much on what is really a very fancy trailer. One could easily purchase a _junk_ trailer chassis for hundreds of dollars, if not tens of dollars, and build a nice new home on top of it for under $10k, maybe $20k if they have to pay someone else to do it. and lot rents aren't nearly as high as they are in California, or any of the other high-tax states. If you are willing to live in a rural area and do work that doesn't need to happen in a large city, you can really do this pretty cheaply, _with_ all things considered. Yeah, you might miss out on a few performances of your favorite ballet, but if that's your thing Tiny Houses might not be for you anyway.

Sounds plausible with those "Wells" inside the crystal lattice, it sounds like it would be very "slippery"

Tiny homes? Even with billions of people on the planet we still have the resources and the land to very EASILY build everyone a decent home ...what we DON'T have is all the resources and the land to satisfy what the rich want.

A tiny home wouldn't be bad if you were living alone with acres of decent land and nothing else around you but living in a town or city full of tiny homes?......no thanks.

I wish you would stop talking about economics as if they are as real as the laws of physics themselves. I get that you are just trying to quantify pros and cons. But the estimated "cost" change as we get smarter, develop or (most importantly) reprioritize. Whether we currently find a given technology to be "uneconomic" does not matter, if it solves an actual physical problem we have no other or physically better solution for. Economy is an extremely subjective social game we play, that depends on a plethora of at-the-time-often-not-known variables. At best economy is a guesstimate, at worst it is complete hype and superstition (belief in "invisible hands" etc). We will simply have to MAKE a useful tech "economically feasible". Having a planet to live on beats having an economy to consume from. 2nd Law of Thermodynamics beats any of the pseudoscience economists have produced in 248 years of trying. Lord Kelvin beats Adam Smith. Entropy beats cost. Any. Time. Of. Day. Real economy is measured in joules. If the physics holds it is feasible. ☝🤓 * no doubt there are so-called "fundamentals" in economics, but those are just easily identifiable physics peeking through ~ however, the rest of value attribution is plain guesswork 👈😉

Labor is the most expensiv thing for most companys. If i have 6 guys in my workshop and everyone gets 1,5k , then i pay nearly 3k for them. If i hire these 6 guys for 1 year that are more then 200k ...

Wpuld have been funny to see appltrees stacked like a jenga tower

BEWARE!!! EcoFlow does not support their warranties. They have terrible customer support. I and many others have had the same problems as Nathan Wolfe did with the Smart Home Panel. Check out his video.

I can see us getting to the point where the tin foil hat wearers do a full 180 and start saying there isn't enough CO2 in the atmosphere to support plant life.

Interesting can you follow up with more information on this please?

Actually, semi-solid state is emerging as the most likely successor to Lithium-ion, with perhaps an 80% increase in energy density at potentially the same or slightly higher cost.

Declining population is a capitalist problem.

It seems that it would be perfect for any vehicle that would be direct drive. Like boats and planes, where is the clutch and transmission . You cannot use a direct drive on a car that needs progressive power. To operate.

Any fires, hurricanes, tornadoes, or anything else that takes out hundreds to thousands of homes effectively negates insurance policy. Insurance is only good for personal disasters.

It's all been done before with trailer parks in the 60s & 70s & most of those have turned into slums & run by slumlords.
