Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin Head of Product L-Charge –the developer of grid-independent ultra-fast charging solutions that work on clean fuels. Even though the discussion about the benefits of electric transport is more than a decade old, the proportion of electric vehicles in the global corporate fleet is still surprisingly small. According to the IEA's Global Electric Vehicle Outlook 2022 , electric light commercial vehicles (LCVs) make up just 2% of the global fleet of this kind. Fully electric vehicles make up 4% of the global fleet of buses and 0.1% of heavy-duty trucks. The LCV share barely exceeds 12%, even in advanced markets. As head of product for an EV charging solution developer, and having done my share of research on the global market, I find the reason for this modest penetration to be the poor infrastructure and services supporting the commercial EV market–charging, support infrastructure and service businesses.

What’s The True Cost Of Your Food? True Price Incorporates Social And Environmental Impact
Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin Rising prices at the grocery store have many of us paying more attention to the cost of our food, and how systems that feel outside of our control influence those prices. While it can be challenging to convey or grasp the scope of the world’s food system, one organization is taking this concept to the supermarket shelves by showing people the actual cost of some items on the shelves — from the land used to grow produce, to the growers who provide it, to the businesses that bring it to the shelves — and raising awareness of the need for economic and agriculture reforms. Many food businesses maintain a focus on maximizing their margins for profit, but some companies are realizing the implications of their actions and adopting practices to protect the future of the planet and people. To help these companies, Michel Scholte co-founded True Price , a Netherlands-based organization that aims to reduce food insecurity and shape a … [Read more...] about What’s The True Cost Of Your Food?

Editors Daily Rundown: Another Inflation Explosion
ANOTHER INFLATION EXPLOSION… CNBC: Inflation rose 9.1% in June, even more than expected, as price pressures intensify Shoppers paid sharply higher prices for a variety of goods in June as inflation kept its hold on a slowing U.S. economy, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported Wednesday. The consumer price index, a broad measure of everyday goods and services, soared 9.1% from a year ago, above the 8.8% Dow Jones estimate. That marked another month of the fastest pace for inflation going back to December 1981. Excluding volatile food and energy prices, so-called core CPI increased 5.9%, compared to the 5.7% estimate. On a monthly basis, headline CPI rose 1.3% and core CPI was up 0.7%, compared to respective estimates of 1.1% and 0.5%. Taken together, the numbers seemed to counter the narrative that inflation may be peaking, as the gains were based across a variety of categories.

How gray became the king of color
If you’ve spent any time on TikTok lately, you may have noticed a sudden obsession with color—or rather the absence of it. advertisement advertisement “There’s been a disappearance of color variety everywhere in the world,” one user says . “Now I’m insecure about liking neutrals,” another comments. It all stems from a 2020 blog post that claims color has been disappearing from the world. The researchers behind the post used computer vision to analyze the color pixels in 7,000 photographs of objects and how the color of these objects has evolved from the 1800s to 2020. These were sampled from five British museums and split across 21 categories, from electronics and lighting to household appliances. The team concluded that over the past 200-plus years, browns and yellows—once dominant hues—have declined in favor of dark charcoal gray. advertisement Fast Company contacted the data scientist who authored the blog, she said she … [Read more...] about How gray became the king of color
2022 Toyota Supra: The 2-Liter Is Fully Passionate
Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin The Toyota Supra is a car from all over the world. Without making any bad references to old music, the Supra is Miss Worldwide. Now in its fifth generation, the Supra is designed by Japanese engineers but shares most of its underpinnings with BMW’s Z4. Available in two engine configurations, the 2-liter inline-4 and 3-liter turbocharged 6-cylinder. The 2-liter Toyota is less powerful, less feature-packed and obviously less expensive than its 3-liter counterpart, but doesn’t lack the same spirit of the iconic model and still manages to check several boxes. The Supra has been almost 7 years in the making, and it took 21 years after its last official appearance to show up on the street again. We’ve seen it for the first time as the 2014 FT-1 Concept that stirred the pot constantly and generated a lot of controversy. Many rumors revolved around what was to become the new Supra. The name still rings well in people’s … [Read more...] about 2022 Toyota Supra: The 2-Liter Is Fully Passionate
