No damage to basket so you tell me how they died.
I liked the robot on wheels that can climb stairs, imagine that technology used to replace wheelchairs, people with disabilities navigating around places that were previously only accessible to able bodied people, that would be life transforming for so many people. One day I imagine the human consciences will be transferred into a complex robot, then people can live on for hundreds of years, then we could travel deep into space and explore new worlds that would normally be inaccessible to organic human life.
That's if our greedy governments are not serving their own personal needs of collecting money and putting people under the carpet. Other than that I agree with you....
Thank you for these videos. I suffer from despair about the future, and your videos make me realize people are working on the climate crisis, as well as advances in robotics and healthcare.
Ditto! 👋
there is no climate crisis, there is an issue we can and will deal with. You have been lied to massively. Search for Bjorn Lomborg and listen to that scientist.
Love the ambitious and inventive minds of these inventors. As a senior citizen, it gives me hope that positive impacts are being made in the right direction. God's Speed to those that create better mousetraps.
as a senior citizen or old person, you should check out aubrey de grey
🤣
Sorry to tell you but most of the ideas on this will never make it to market, there are some astonishing examples of moronic inventions here, plus whoever put the video together is flat out lying to you about the effectiveness and cost of the projects. Solar powered trains are an extremely in-efficent use of resources. Imagine a train that goes two miles, only goes once a day and he ticket price is the same as ten loaves of bread. That's what these people have invented. They've found an amazing way to waste tax payers money pretending to fix climate change. It's insane. Plus mirrors to cook food so you don't have to use methane or propane? You emit many times more carbon in the construction of the mirrors than you would grilling steak the normal way. And the idea of using that in the 3rd world is beyond dumb. Why would you give an expensive device to cook meat to people who can onlu afford to eat meat once or twice a week? Bananas.
Aptera can also plug into a standard wall outlet to charge.
The adds kept getting interrupted by annoying inventions !
Exactly! YT is killing me.
They dropped a 30 minute religious proselytizing video right smack in the middle of my viewing. I’m pretty fed up with the christo fascists on YT!
switch to brave browser problem solved
So pay 💰
Amazing inventions. Well edited and documented. It really blow my mind while watching it. Unbelievable. Human mind is beyond compare.
And we've only explored a few percent of it. And in a materialistic frame. Leaving 90plus percent untouched in terms of psychic intellectual and mental capability .. the human race is like children counting grains of sand on a beach .
1950: "Soon we'll have flying cars"
Dec, 28 2023 "Soon we'll have flying cars."
People can't even fly drones without crashing something and you wanna give 'em flying cars???
@@Rekuzan That is exactly the problem, why it cannot work. Until you have AI capable because real pilots aren't going to be prolific enough.
We will have flying cars soon.
We have had flying cars for over 50 years, their called helicopters
@michaelbrinks8089 we already have flying cars, we call them planes
It's good to see somebody recognizes that paving the landscape with solar panels is environmentally counterproductive. Using them as shades for plants that don't like direct sun is a partial answer (although shade from tall direct-sun plants like corn or fruit trees is better). The best place for Voltalia's Cabanon is over parking lots. There, they will save a lot of energy and extend the life of cars parked there by keeping them from getting hot in direct sunlight so they won't need so much energy to be cooled down when the drivers are ready to leave. I've been saying this for years, but no parking lot owner I know of has done it yet, even though most people I've talked to see it as common sense.
What's popular isn't always good and What's best isn't always popular.
It blows my mind that we are still dumping trash in the ocean
who is dumping trash in the ocean? those clips in this video are from after major storm events like hurricanes.
@@SMacCuUladh Yeah like who would dump stuff in the ocean that can be sold to recycling. Funny fact here in Sweden we apparently import trash.
A steam powered rocket that uses batteries to make steam. Stage one, twenty pounds to orbit, stage two, 24 tons. What a load of crap.
Every inventions you guys showed was awesome, I hope I'll live enough time to see them, thank you all ❤😊
Are we controlling the machines or are the machines controlling us?
Oddly, I liked the little skinny flying robot. But with all flying technology; I hope they
put some kind of cage, or guard, over the propellers to protect people from being
processed into tiny, bloody, bits....
We really need robots for the disabled and our aging population as people don't want to take care of us as we get older. The need for a huge use of robots.
My impression was that the second half of the video was more impressive than the first half; starting with that Hyperion, the hydrogen powered car. Did anyone else get the same, though mild impression?
HHO gas. The inventor was "disappeared" by the UNITED STATES government.
Allot of stuff that will never be seen beyond this video!
Well if you want to see the ARCASPACE rockets you only need to go to Romania..
But some of this stuff will happen and the stuff that doesn't gets new minds thinking better way that might work
@deanziyone2213 I do know that but I'm 55 now and allot of the stuff that I have seen come and go and never develop into something real is sorta discouraging. I do admit in the many years I've been on this planet technology has gotten better in leaps and bounds. Where my coment came from is all the improvements I've seen in battery technology and solar technology is very impressive but I know for a fact that there is already safer battery tech that holds more and less charging time that exists that paired with newer better solar panels in different configurations could make it so a person could take a trip across country in electric car no problem but they are so busy making money off the older stuff and keeping the newer stuff off the market so more money is made that it's happening to slow to improve air quality and other things. Look at what happened during the COVID shutdown. The air got cleaner for a minute animals changed there habits because it was a bit quieter. Anyway...... This is long enough and I could go on and on but I won't anymore just felt I should explain!😁😉
@@deanziyone2213100%
Especially to negative blind people like you. If you don't like it, don't watch it.
How do we (the normal public Jo) get an invention on a channel like this? So difficult to get a good idea into the public industrial sphere that most of us can't afford to perfect to the finished article. This site is an excellent idea. Please more information for us home inventors please.
Very educational and informative. I really enjoyed watching and hope my brain can grasp the knowledge provided.
I once imagined this as the ultinate zombie apocalypse survival vehicle.
Insurance company. So how did your house burn down?
Well, you see. It was sunny out and I left my grill pointing the wrong direction
Stuff we see in movies will be our day-to-day reality in the not-so-distant future. Exciting.
I somehow doubt that
@29:40 Quote Each LENS (meaning the propeller/shroud combination) is quoted at 367 feet (111.86m) the ones shown are far, far short of that diameter. Perhaps they are scale models?
As amazing as technology is....I am more amazed at humans and what they can create and imagine.
Indeed. But you forget the other thing,,,,,,, destroy.
@@pliashmuldba Well that's a given.
OBAMA said we didn't build nuffin
Volar looks promising. I like the solar train but of course doesn't operate at night. The horizontal wind generators are the better designs. The self righting robots are getting us closer to robots similar to humans.
It works at night.
It only uses 20% of its stored energy during the day and the remaining usable 55% is avalible to be used at night. operation.
Boston Dynamics. Been there, Done That years ago.
Yes they are. I still fall over sometimes.
It won't operate in the day unless it's always going down hill towards the centre of the earth.
The canvas things flapping on the back of trucks will be a hit.
Several times..😅
Improving renewable energy machines is my desire to achieve, love it and my advocacy.
wow you must really think you're a good person.
They need to make an Infrared Vitamin checker on a Watch or a handheld checker that tells you what is low or missing in your blood.
I'm really starting to believe that we are trying like hell to innovate ourselves into obsolescence. The thing you're missing in your blood is probably direct sunlight😅
Are those robot soccer players going to be trained to fake injuries like the real players 🤣🤣🤣
And they also must be programmed to spit on the ground.
And warm their circuits by placing hands down their pants.@@duudsuufd
The transaxle windmill does need to face the wind adjustment , it always faces the wind , imagine a head of hand operated manual kitchen mixer upside down.
Third-world countries have been using solar-type or reflector panels for decades as an alternative method for cooking. However, they do so using far cheaper and available material.....something so elaborate as shown in @15:29 is really not feasible. Still, it will be interesting to see who decides to install that particular technology.
BBQ enthusiasts who also absolutely must have any new shiny gadgets and have lots of money to waste? Maybe someone could install a few of them and start a restaurant offering solar cooked meals, open only around noon on very sunny days...
Stuff like the bike that costs as much as a cheap car is at least useful, but this contraption is dumb. It takes up lot of open space in your yard and may require cutting down trees because it requires direct sunlight, is either a permanent structure or hard to relocate so you cannot store it away when not in use, requires lot of cleaning to keep it shiny, and still only works for a limited number of hours per day so no evening meals for you.
This may be one of the few cases when building a "green" gadget takes more money, energy and fossil fuels than using it would and could ever save you. Some of the smaller scale and DIY versions do actually work, for the rest of us cooking with electricity produced by solar panels is both cheaper and more practical option.
This is like tho old "Popular Science" magazine. "All the technology that never happens". As a kid, it was fun to believe all that clap-trap but I was over it by high school. Now I simply poke fun at it.
Look back in those mags and see what's come true!
Dad, dad buy me a calculator it does +-x/. It only costs $99 and the batteries only last a couple of hours. No auto shut off and calculators were banned from schools for many many years to come.
Now a personal laptop is a requirement? Do they still have paper and pencil? Probably the only time they use it because it Is a requirement to pass to next grade. Is there still grades? 😊
China's train collision test needs fixing. It is missing the momentum of all the cars behind the engine. The crash results will change dramatically for the worse.
I'm glad you mentioned the Aptera solar-powered car, it goes into production this year, I think it'll be a game-changer.
Nope
Are you mad?
Mad Mike would be proud of the steam rocket 🚀
Would be Jealous they work without fatalities.
Interesting stuff thanks.
Absolutely astonishing! It's unexpectedly intriguing and mesmerizing.
I have devolped compact wind powered device that will be generating 3 kwh and we can deploy 6 units per coach on roof now you can calculate with the no of coaches
Never seen so many ridiculous things at one time with a few good ones.
a few good laughs? like giving a massive, expensive solar powered meat cooker to people in the 3rd world who can't afford meat?
10 years ✅egan. 10 years of not hurting victims. Simple really ✅❤️⭕️💪😬👱🏼♂️🐒🐵🦍😎👍Herbivore
They really try to make waiting all day to go 40 miles a good thing. I don't know anyone that can wait all day to go somewhere.
The skit "Pay with your hand".. God I hope that doesn't catch on. "Registered Users" has waaay too many meanings for Chinese civilians. (Coming to an area near you).
No. My mind is definitely not blown
I was far more impressed by the self balancing monorail from 1910 - the engneering that went into that was pretty incredible - THE BRENNAN MONORAIL is well worth a look to make up for all these so called "incredible" inventions.
@@stephenbrough8132I saw that balancing train ad and now I'll watch how it worked! Solar battery trains... If a rr could squeeze a dime anywhere, they would have TRIED ALREADY!!
When I was about 5 years old in 1957 I had a wind up toy that would climb glass like a geko. It had little rotating suction cups for feet. I cant wait to ride in a flying car! bring em on!
You should know: buyer beware...especially loose women. Got to love them.❤
With good suctioning power.
Could of maybe just been luck. 😊
I very much like Hyrogen from solar. Unfortunately, you will need other supportive sources in Canada, as we only get oblique sunlight for most of the year.
The CycloTech drone does not have engines: it has motors.
Look up the definition of an engine. A machine for converting any of various forms of energy into mechanical force and motion. In the process of trying to make yourself look intellegent, you have proved that you are just a small minded idiot looking for attention. But thanks for your observation!
That is awesome! We need one in America. For the Muddy Mississippi. Come on and share.
Incredible inventions that will make you jobless...
Placing solar panels so crops can be grown underneath, in arizonz, ca is very promising, inreases wzter collection, shade am provides energy for electric tractors. Solar reduces heat in hot areas such as phoenix by converting solzr energy into electricity vs heat. This helps everyone in city further reduce air conditioning costs.
This should be mandated by law a.omg with white roofs.
Furthermore these reduce global warming by reflecting heat back i to sky, and could even increase rainfall.
Space permitting I was just wondering if something like a jell could serve as bullet proofing, which would confound a bullet rather than deflect it. A ricochet is also capable of damage.
Well done! Great content as a scientist.
THE RUSKIES had a ground effect plane back in the 50 / 60s . this is NOT a new idea
The vm45 cargo capacity is 92 gallons I hope all you moonshine runners heard that it only runs 28 MPH but nobody will ever suspect you in that vehicle
Separable car/copters and diving, flying drones. Very cool!
we HAD TWO VERTOL DRONE ASW HELICOPTERS, WITH EACH CARRYING 23 INCH DIAMETER, 21 FOOT TORPEEDOS X 2, ON OUR BAD ASS LITTLE US NAVY DESTROYER ( aka BABY BATTLE SHIP KILLER BY ITS SHOWING IN ww2.) tHIS WAS IN 1970. THESE INVENTIONS DESERVE CREDIT, but!
They have has that safe stop (technology) for YEARS.I had a friend in the military he told me about it. It can shut down a whole BUNCH of vehicles at once.
It can’t shut down a mechanical diesel engine.
It won't work on my car, which is almost 20y old.😝
It is called an EMP!! No big mystery!! It also will kill 90% of the population of the USA--indirectly!!!Hi Altitude NUK!!!
The reason that aliens have not been found in the vastness of space is that WE are the aliens and, for some reason, are now relearning what enabled our ancestors to come to Earth from far, far away a long, long time ago.
Yes, Zipline is an American company, but it was founded in 2014 by Keller Rinaudo, Keenan Wyrobeck, and William Hetzler, with the goal of using drones to speed up the delivery of critical medical supplies, such as blood and medications. The company's drone delivery system was first implemented in Rwanda
Very interesting chanel. But why dont you use the international measurement system for a beter world wide understanding
There's no way with current technology, that a train can be propelled with 23% of the output of solar panels on the roof.
From a show I watched specifically about that train. There is a little bit of an incline (hill) and they get a little worried going over it. Maybe it uses 23% of total power generated throught the day cause most of the time it's sitting. But when operating I bet it needs all of its solar to operate. And you are only going to add so many batteries into the train cause it makes more weight to have to climb over that hill. So when the train docks the batteries charge to full 100% capacity the extra solar power is fed into the grid instead of turning the system off and waiting for next train departure.
I bet there are alot of solar systems out there that shut down when fully charged that could divert that energy to anouther needy device requiring more power.
Notice the under carriage tanks. Definitely a hybrid
The solar panel cars need typical 10 days (in full sunshine) to have the battery fully charged for a 400 km range. A train might allow for a better orientation of the panels and better driving efficiency. It will most probably score a little better, but this is not for driving long distances.
You mean the power of a couple of 2 bedroom brick homes with acc and Cable, wont pull...?
awg #4, would be good for the 440 inverters, guys. old school thyrectors to block spikes. toot toot.... on down the line, on a down slope run... screaming whistle blowing. OK, cool Tech ... CHECK.... Build it Bidem !
Innovative Techs,
You should look into Edison Motors.
They are a startup. They build and convert Semis into Diesel-electric. They take out the 19liter diesel engine and replace it with a 9liter generator that only runs 1/3 of the time. When it does run, it runs at peak efficiency for fewer emissions and better MPG. So the fuel tank can be smaller and still have the same range. They only need 1/4 of the batteries because of the generator. And the Semi weighs the same as it did before the conversion. They are also working on a way to convert full-sized pickups, buses, and RVs. Any vehicle with a solid rear axle. The generator can be anything, diesel, gasoline, natural gas, hydrogen, or instead of a generator, add more batteries. The generator is not part of the drive train. It is only to supply electricity to the batteries.
Trains have been using Diesel-Electric since the 1930's. It has been their standard since the 1950's. It doesn't matter if it's freight pulling millions of tons, or passenger pulling thousands of tons at 200 MPH. Its still Diesel-Electric.
Zip line looked neat! Better only go to upscale neighborhoods!
Actually, poor neighborhoods already benefit greatly from use of small to medium drones for medical cargo. The vertical zip line drone in the video could certainly be modified to travel further and cover larger impoverished areas. Of course, there are already competing designs in use.
Hold the module with your hands and when the drone rolls up the line it will descend and you have a free drone!
So many innovative ideas. Thanks for sharing.
I ❤ that design of the Skegness vertical windturbine at 33:01!!! Can you imagine a skyscraper shaped like that!? When the wind is being directed downwards it can also be used to push vehicles through underground tunnels after it went through a whole bunch of small turbines like the ones at 29:30. The enormous amount of required energy for vertical farming in cities is no longer an issue with buildings like that.
copterpack looks cool except that 55 lb person flying it seems unrealistic
I am delighted to see such constructive creativity and applied science. I am pulling out myself a lot of developments in applied blockchain and AI and so I know about the suffering behind each and everybodys pilot project. We all could have gone much faster but the civil population doesn't connect and condemning us to deal with toxic capital hawks (bankers incld.) entering into bad business. That is always reflected in pricings while we want to make it cheap and affordable for everyone. Ironically ppl pay much higher prices and feeding the middlemen, meaning: developers and the public lose always! You got to touch these kind of aspects and everybody doing science and technology videos as well. Most of the time problems came in circles and back to its origin: the non participative society always busy to blame others. Only the Canadian company with the electric roller is in danger since governments are going to prohibit its use in public areas. Lot of polemic has gone across Europe because of this. Keep it going, lot more has been done in 23 and also now in 24.
For the love of God, make the palm payment system only work as long as the hand is alive and attached to a living person.
Portable solar chargeing for car nice idea
29:38 I think your script is confused on how big "Feet" are. "a diameter of 367 Feet can power an average size household". This is the current length of many 100KWh blades, which can power many homes.
At 10 minutes with the Plastic Removal system, kinda funny they look like giant old Glass bottle caps. That would be great positive And Revenue for Coke, Pepsi, and Beer companies to put their Logos to to work.
Interesting. Hilarious. More insipid, ridiculous inventions. Thanks for the laugh.
You may want to reconsider your comment as the advancements of technology are quite frequent and legitimate in these times. Here in America we like to keep an open mind, unless they are smoking fentanyl! Thanks, XiXing!
Interesting stuff thanks. Odd use of the word casual though, did you mean normal?
Covid shouldn't be attributed with the development of drone delivery systems as the ones presented here were already in the minds of many. Covid brought only grief and division and sorrow we'd be better off seeing it for what it is and not glorify it.
The VM45 is held back by the test driver, who was unable to demonstrate a legal driving ability, and dangerously crossed the road centre-line on the bends - so it is no good for safe general use.
Thanks for showing Renewables.
But for me it's hard to watch clips about solar and wind generators wether for hydrogen or electicity generation still presented innovations or even inventions in 2024. These two products were first presented since the dicovery of direct current. But it took two centuries of carbonwasting thanks oil lobbyism to legislate the necessary standarts.
But the oil lobbies are still running us down ...
Solar cells in space transmitting power via microwaves to earth?I can think of a whole series of problems compared to solar cells on earth: Risk of Space debris destroying it, massive power loss due to transmission type (microwave), power loss due to distance (36000km), powerless due to even the slightest misalignment between constantly moving sender and receiver, power loss due to atmospheric absorption... in short, the increase in efficiency you get in space is probably smaller than the losses you face when sending the power back to earth. But wait till E-Rockets hit the market and you can use it as wireless space recharge station.
Many old ideas that have not caught on because they are too expensive and inefficient and therefore not practical.
Thank u & incredible ❤
Aptera started in 2006. in 17 years, they still haven't released a production model.
1000 mile range on their website but their launch spec says 400 miles. Confusing.
The first story is really laughable, they claim to be the first ecologically clean train in the world! 🤣🤣🤣
In the Netherlands, all the trains drive on wind energy! 😎
By the way, i didn't watch the rest of this video, i've seen enough! 👋🏻
Switch from kg to literally without reference to pressure. Is it at atmospheric pressure? Does the system produce h2 from h20? If so what is the tech? Direct conversion in the cell or electrolysis? Something else?
If you knew the difference between an engine and a prop I would still be watching 😂

takk for all den gode informasjonen du ga oss.
Australia 🤣😂 After the great fail of solar streets now solar trains from the same company...😂😂😂
2 motors run that train, apparently on solar power. You heard that right....solar. They said it'll offload power to the grid. What power? You just used it all to go. Then, on days where it's cloudy, you buy the energy on OUR dime. I don't understand how a solar powered train helps ANYONE.
In 1829, a British guy called
Robert Stevenson built a locomotive powered by steam called The Rocket.
I bet he never saw rockets coming nearly 200 years later!
Mind you. Neither did I. There's still something about steam that excites me. Power of the future!!! Yay! 😂😂
Crossflow fans is 4:09 an old, old technology and very inefficient.
Because of that it has been abandoned
So some body revives it and now it's the best, newest, fantastic invention
Check the patents before publishing, but that's not the point, it's moneytization .
Once the video is paid, 'who cares whether it's accurate, that not my department'
You realize of course that a lot of these machines will replace people, maybe the luddites were right
yes, and the cotton mill replced slaves, cars replaced horses, and computers replaced data entry. yet here we are. its almost as if people adapt when job markets disappear
No F1 is better on the ground with out hybrid power
A 'business reef' in space? What (not) on earth for? What a waste of energy and carbon emissions!
Not to mention... how would you get there? And... what's the point?
JUST WHAT WE NEED...more microwave beams from space! 😮
You don't know how much we already have.
Were going in the wrong direction Not too mention the Fake climate change being pushed on every media
If you put a microwave satellite in GSO, it will have a 6x8 kilometer footprint on the ground at approximately 40° North latitude. Using concertina wire as a receiver strung between posts, the microwave concentration is safe for humans and animals for reasonable periods of time. If one wishes to work full-time under it, a simple shirt or coat and hat with foil in them will suffice.
Meanwhile, farming or livestock grazing can happen in parallel.
SPACEX'S and maybe BO's rockets will make orbiting sufficient mass for the project reasonably economical.
With all this ensconced in GSO, the only problem will be the periods when the solar panels have fairly extensive blank outs when the sun doesn't reach them. That will require fleets of satellites in leading and trailing parts of GSO, that can then be trained on the receivers when the normal parts of the array are masked.
TANSTAAFL!
I'd like to see RF Safe Stop stop a Detroit 8V-71, or any 2-stroke diesel with a mechanical fuel pump.
LOL. But not that dangerous.
Cool but expected. Solar Train is very cool and worth developing.
it's far more efficient to just have energized overhead lines, than to carry heavy batteries and solar panels.
@@kruleworld The solar panels on the roof should produce enough power to recharge every passenger's mobile phone.
At every stop the batteries can be charged from a stationary source. Like the bus with a super capacitor running in Shanghai.
Glad to see some great inventions...
Hilarious that people think the roads will light up. Government can't even paint the roads right.
All of these technologies are promising
Nice sun heat technology
Haven't subscribed in a long time to a new channel. I'll stay too if you hire a sound engineer or get better at consistent volumes. Great stuff.
In the SciFi novel *Space Doctor* by Lee Corey, just such a project is proposed and built. The primary focus of the story is the actual construction of the solar arrays and how space medicine needs to evolve to handle both construction accidents and the human stupidity that usually causes such, while operating in a Zero-G environment.
Look, I'm all for renewable energy and innovative technology.. BUT, that first one, so called "electric train" sounds waaay too good to be true.. allegedly it only requires 20% of the energy it's panels can capture..? Really..??? I could somewhat understand if the train was made of honeycomb-aluminum material, or carbon fiber, so that its weight would be as low as possible.. but even that would need some smart engineering to extend roof area to add many more panels, as I doubt 30 panels is anywhere near enough to power-up a train.. But in this particular presentation they say that this is actually a refurbished train from decades ago, which suggests that its weight is massive.. Don't get me wrong, it would be VERY nice if scientists/engineers could develop solar panels that could convert 100% of solar output into useable energy.. then you could stick this "new" solar panel on your car and drive away.. Hence, I think this "EV train", for whatever reason, is doing false advertisement, as the only thing those solar panels could power would be the lights, TV's and maybe.. MAYBE air-conditioning.. the rest of the energy probably comes from those lithium batteries, although they get charged-up every morning before the trip starts, and probably this train makes few "pit-stops" to recharge those batteries again.. I think whoever wrote the "script" for promoting this thing went waaay overboard with that whole "it needs only 20% of its energy, whilst the rest 80% goes to the grid".. really..??? I mean I don't see Tesla all of a sudden converting all their super-charger stations into "powered by solar panels only".. after all, if 30 panels charge-up to allow a train that weights dozens of tons to drive as if it's diesel-powered, then in theory just ONE of this panels should be enough to power a Jeep, and we don't see cars with solar panel roofs as of yet..
The train doesn't run constantly. There are more than just the solar panels on the trains roof that produce electricity. At least you are paying attention though.
What surprises me is with global warming, we keep focusing on solar energy instead of finding a way to concentrate the ambient heat and use that energy. solar wont work on a cloudy day but if its cloudy but still warm, the ambient energy would still be there
Ambient heat is used in heat pumps to heat houses and heat your water for the shower. Small systems for single family houses and huge systems for small cities (Denmark).
The climate always changes humans have nothing to do with it unless all atomic weapons were to be set off all at once
They are solving a non existent problem. Global warming is not bad. An increase of about 1.5 degrees since the little ice age. The most prosperous century in history. What we should be doing is developing even more coal, gas and nuclear power in preparation for when the climate reverses toward another ice age. Also provide energy for undeveloped countries.
This video is also deceptive. The solar panels on the train do not provide all the energy for the train to run. Most of the energy to charge the batteries comes from the panels on the roof of the station.
Solar and wind have no hope of replacing existing dense energy of coal, gas, oil and nuclear.
Weather
