These are the Morons Who are Running Climate with Our Government

Tesla completes purchase of wireless charging company whose product can charge as fast as a corded charger. Another impediment to owning EVs has fallen.
What could the possible advantage be. Unless they have come up with a new wireless charging technology. That is going to be one strong magnetic field and generate some heat.

A new condo project I work in only has 4 EV charging spots for a building of 60 units and they sold out those spots quickly. If these chargers can be built into the ground you could have chargers available for all parking spots is one good benefit for those that have or want to have them. EV's are going to take over (especially with room temperature superconductor technology just being announced that could allow near instant charging) it's only a matter of time. EV bikes are a huge hit with kids who are the ones adopting this technology en masse.

Electromagnetic fields and cancer risks - PubMed

Cancer was first associated with exposure to electromagnetic fields (EMF) in 1979 when Wertheimer and Leeper reported that children dying from cancer resided more often in homes believed to be exposed to higher EMF than did healthy control children.

Effects of radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (RF EMF) on cancer in ...

Mar 1, 2022Similar, in animal models with implanted tumor cells, only that tumor type can be compared to the long-term animal cancer bioassay, effects of RF EMF on tumor types in all organs and tissues / body fluids can be studied. 1.3. Description of the exposure. RF EMF are defined as fields with frequencies from 100 kHz to 300 GHz.

Electromagnetic fields and cancer: the cost of doing nothing

Abstract. Everyone is exposed to electromagnetic fields (EMFs) from electricity (extremely low frequency, ELF), communication frequencies, and wireless devices (radiofrequency, RF). Concern of health hazards from EMFs has increased as the use of cell phones and other wireless devices has grown in all segments of society, especially among children.

Funny how to save the planet we need to throw out all our old homes/vehicles/appliances and buy new ones produced with fossil fuels!

Think of the children

Putting them underground would not be feasible since it requires close proximity. What would be the advantage. You would still have to have a unit per parking spot. As far as the room temp super conductors. They have been talking about that for a couple of decades. Nothing yet. The whole transmission system would have to be super conductors to work. Watts is watts
 
There is a (il)logic argument (not a science based argument) that because Phoenix has had 10 of the last 20 years hotter than average - some record temps over FORTY years... that is proof of global warming. That is idiotic.

The most obvious reason for the increased temperatures in Phoenix is the heat island effect which NOAA readily acknowleges is a real thing. So Phoenix is 4,727,000 today. 22% higher than it was in 2000. And the major streets alone are nearly 800 miles within the city. That's about 8 square miles of asphalt. Local streets cover even more. Add the building tops, parking lots and airports and you have 40 square miles or more of heat absorbing sun soaking materials that radiate heat back at night. What they do not report is the temperatures of small towns nor outback areas. So, guess what? those get fairly cool by comparison even though sand absorbs and radiates heat as well. And the "average" daily temperature is simply the high and the low divided by 2. That's the standard way of measuring "daily average temperatures".
Exactly. Where are the temps taken? The airport, which is in the middle of the city, surrounded by black asphalt and concrete. Not to mention the amount of AC units and equipment operating during the day and night to cool the buildings. I live outside the city and the temps here can be 5-10 degrees cooler in the evening than in the city. When I was in college we used to get monsoons almost daily during July and August. The past few years have been weak with monsoons, a lot of it having to do with the heat from the city asphalt and structures dissipating the storms before they can get all the way into the middle of Phoenix. We still get good storms on the outskirts of town, still not as many as we used to.

They do have a spot for each unit but only offer 4 chargers for the project. You would install these under ground except the flat plate like in the pic I posted and that's the only exposed part (no chargers or cords). Just park over top and you got charging. As far a room temp super conductors there was a discovery posted yesterday on Twitter that they are here as crazy as that sounds though it's very early. Link is below.

That technology is nothing more than a theory and is in it's infancy and probably decades away. In order for superconducting to work. You would need to have a lage part of the distribution system to be composed of super conducting materials. When I said units. I meant you would have to have a control unit for each "pad". Cordless charging is nothing more than a gimmick. What is the difference between plugging the charging unit into the car. Or parking over a charging mat. Except you save 30 seconds. Cordless charging is also less efficient. Lots of energy loss to heat.
 

Drought-stricken Mexico is turning to a controversial technology to make it rain

As an extreme drought grips Mexico, leading to crop losses, a lack of water and higher food prices, the government is trying to bring desperately-needed rain by turning to a controversial technology: cloud seeding.

In July, the country kicked off the latest phase of a cloud seeding project that aims to artificially stimulate rainfall. It is targeting 62 municipalities clustered in its north and northeast, with the aim of “combating the effects of drought and contributing to the recharge of aquifers,” according to a statement from the Ministry of Agriculture.

Cloud seeding is a technology first discovered in the 1940s. Since then, it has been used in around 50 countries, including in the United States and China. Mexico has been experimenting with weather modification for more than seven decades.

However, some scientists remain very cautious about the effectiveness of cloud seeding and warn that it is not a solution to drought.

“It has a controversial history because it’s very difficult to prove what you are doing from a scientific perspective,” Roelef Bruintjes, a weather modification scientist at the National Center for Atmospheric Research in the US, told CNN.

Mexico’s project involves spraying silver iodide particles into clouds from planes. The government hopes stimulating rainfall can help farmers better cope with the drought that has swept large swaths of the country.
