Listening to this in 2016 and now 2024 people are mad Ford & General Motors answered the bell on EV's. What a great talk in hindsight

Honking car locking wakes people up and causes very stressful noise. We can hear it from behind / inside the walls of the buildings you park next to. Please lock your car quietly with light flash only for your neighbors sleep and peace of mind. Thank You.

Tesla definitively has great products and the future is electric. But I wouldn't expect TED to be used as advertising platform. Nothing to do with the tile of this session "why electricity is the answer to transportation sustainability". Wrong place for this presentation.

not necessarily the wrong place, but it didnt say anything that isnt known or obvious for that matter, as we know cars pollute

If you look at the big picture, what he is proposing is just a part of the solution. Take a look at Don Sadoway's work. He's a prophet of science.

If you look closely, most TED talks are done by someone looking to gain something. Promoting their book, their company, their youtube-channel, their podcast, their cryptocurrency, themselves (because they love to be famous) etc. I think only a few are actually there to further a cause that doesn't benefit them directly.

I liked this, since it's a lesson in exactly how NOT to give a TED talk. 1.) It's about ideas -- Don't open up by shamelessly plugging a product or brand. 2.) Know your subject well enough that you don't have to read from a script word-for-word. You look like a spokesman -- a spokesman that doesn't know the difference between real lasers and hypothetical charged-particle beam weapons. 3.) There is no 3. I gave up after 10 minutes.

Why electricity could be the answer ? Because the electricity could be best produced.. for now it is not the case and so the electric vehicles for now are CO2 vehicles. I think he should have talked about this. It is one of the main issue of EVs right now.

The big advantage of EV's though is that over time they get greener, even the ones already on the road. Simply can't do that with ICE vehicles.

This is all false. Electric cars consume much MORE energy per mile than gasoline cars. This is because electricity is a highly "refined" resource and it is a law of physics that 'it consumes energy to refine energy'. The environmentalists are shutting down efficient power plants and replacing them with inefficient windmills and solar panels. Where is all of the electricity going to come from to power tens of millions of electric cars? The electric car was first introduced in 1890. It has never succeeded in the market until we started giving it massive taxpayer subsidies. These subsidies are distorting the reality of electric cars, along with endless fawning media.

Why? You don't like stopping for 30 minutes every 4-5 hours of driving, when you're on a >500km trip? In normal every day life, when the car charges overnight at home, you will simply never have to take time out of your day or plan around stopping at a charger, like you do with an ICE car now. The only reason this MIGHT make sense is if you wanted to drive into the middle of nowhere - for instance, central Australia, where there is not only a lack of charging infrastructure, but infrastructure full stop besides a few roads. That and there is no differential on a Tesla, at least not in the traditional sense, and so no way to connect a driveshaft to it.

cars is NOT the solution
@stevengrimsley89496 жыл бұрын
+Claudio there is no "the solution", no silver bullet. Every new invention we can think of that is cleaner and more efficient is necessary to a brighter future. Electric vehicles ARE A solution to a very big problem, most houses in developed countries use at least some electricity. So electricity consumption is a proven system right? So we just apply that to other industries since you can make electricity from many different places. Cars, homes, offices, stores, and all other areas we use energy will need to be upgraded one way or another, as well as where and how the energy is produced.

@@stevengrimsley8949 We can't be disingenuous about the fossil fuel industry though. We need to dramatically invest in mass transit and other green/electric travel. We don't need more multi-hundred-billion dollar oceans of asphalt and concrete to speed hulking aluminum and plastic- at the expense of the public's safety and the profit of a few. On a tangent, we should dramatically reduce the military budget to invest more in electrified trains, trams, and renewable energy, etc.
