thanks a lot for watching. until the next time. take care the video lucas? easy. no. it is actually just one thing that is probably worth the did you know that norway still is way more electric cars per capita than the us norway? well buddy isn't kidding. that how didn't nation build some fossil fuels to come and eat the power dice? and what does these things pop legends have to do with it's the

already these really, the o'neill said to all problems we are you that easy buying that? i think people, that's the most important thing 1st time as of yet, there are too many of these but maybe there's more to this electric utopia than meets the eye. well, to understand new ways, the obsession, we 1st got to rewind to the 1918 believe it or not know ways loves to ease goes way back to the late eighty's when since pope plant aha was in switzerland. and so for us to come to the, to being converted to run on an electric power, leasing a motion. hook, it brute, a similar costs in no way where he began driving its invest names refusing to pay toll talking fees. the arguments eaves with good for the environments and to be incentivized that call go to impound that many times. i'm put up for auction at

which point the band would buy it back and repeat that performance. they was fed on by environmental. this is frederick conk, and how old and rustic the antics has the desired effect on the student pop revenue since helped to give way to the countries e. v. revolution the, it's a part of the beginning of the story. definitely, but a lot has happened since then. this is christina boone, the secretary general of the norwegian e. b association, a non profit founded in 1995 that helped advocate for easy adoption shape policy and liaison between the government. i'm bias possibly a little more influential than ha, in transforming no way into the land of the e. v and into a country even on musk low. today no waste e b statistics of bone cuz study shows that he's accounted for 82.4 percent of new

ways. new passenger cost sales in 2023. and that's not including plug in hybrids. and in 2024. those because of i need become stronger, we are above 92 percent because to stronger policies implemented in last year's budget. so the budget for this year and the yeah, for the 1st time in history, the might be able to reach a climate goal, which is a very good feeling. she's referring to no ways. 0 emissions 2025 go. essentially the countries aim is that in 2025 own you call sold will either be by 3 electric vehicles or fuel cell electric vehicles. in other words, they're aiming for no new internal combustion engine calls to be sold in 2025 foot motor on that lights up. norway's e v. landscape is dominated bytes tests, which in 2023 became the most sold call brand in the country for the 3rd year in

a row. that it has the story and nobody has been it sort of the 4th through the past. piece around is the editor in chief of norwegian, comm magazine. my time the, the 1st cars have the breakdown and the cars know because a lot of the bad press but didn't think about that act together and then they have really stepped up so, so they are, they are a today have a good, strong position in people's thinking about the both of the brands what we've seen though is that there's definitely a situation and especially the last year or so where, where test law has increase their market share when it comes to how many cars they sell. and it was january a year ago where they increase the price is quite a lot. and we've seen that other car manufacturers and importers might have had a big board problem. we're competing with tests in 2023. the model of wind was no waste, best selling cars over 23000 units sold around 3 and

a half times as many as it's near restoring hold the volkswagen id full. which isn't to say that no way doesn't have any issues with the tests. it's thrown it support behind its neighbors sweep way, unions of demand, things better wages and working conditions. and it also helps look the impulsive test as into sweden. but this hasn't affected the number of testers in no way. in fact, even as americans struggled with their own product, the norwegians have been steadily e v, mist, postings, they gain the front, the ease of gain such rapid popularity in the cold, vast, no denounced gait put to rest fee is about the batteries not doing well in sub 0 times about range anxiety. these are rapidly closing in on 100 percent market share in no way. the only reason it's not 100 is the toyota is logging in in production of the, of the these, the moment they authorize on board. uh, which is

a big brand site, the biggest brands on their way. it will be these all over. but how the heck did no way do it? for 2060 and we haven't goal of reducing arms is by 90 to 95 percent. this is also stated in the law to the climate law. this is rock nodes says that the state secretary of new ways, climates and environment ministry. and it turns out henry gibson was really norwegian government didn't just draft 1000 would policies. instead they did things the early eaves in norway were out looking machines that reminded you of kermit, the frog, the sink city by d e v. for example, when to exactly the most popular cause in the country, that historically has no driving. hey fellas, get out of the country that's produced some pretty phenomenal drivers night pets

are sold back for the electric. maybe the t isn't a pulse. is an issue in no way. the specific goal of having all new sales of vehicles in 2025 to be serial. mission is the the goal that has been there all along across different governments. i think part of the success in norway especially kept the policies in place for a long time. and it's partly due to a different political parties agreed to at least a certain extent, the green, but also agreement across to sort of civil society sector. even if governments have come and gone, no ways, health costs on its climate goals and the policies that go hand in hand with ex, any moves to encourage the adoption, including tax exemption on buying electric cars. and a b drive is didn't need to pay total parking fees. cool for the use of fairies when crossing no waste famous fields. but some of these measures have since been

rolled back to ensure the policies don't just benefit the rich. so tax exemptions still exist for ease cheaper than $45000.00 to rise. we argue that you'd be buying the electric vehicle. that's the most important thing for the car with them. yes sir. so it's not necessary to have a really expensive electric vehicle. just a function of a one, a reasonable price, and as a be used as encouraged to help make the 20250 emissions go hybrids and internal combustion engine costs are discouraged by being price time. there will be no spot on ice cars, even new ice cars in 2025 books. this is the politicians that has decided these goals and they have to use and they are using the mixtures. they have to make it happen. and those semesters is the taxes that we have in your way.

in practically practical terms, it means taxing ice cars or question engine cars out of business was really interesting though, is that no waste easy policy existed long before the technology became viable. so over the last decade or so, even while policies remains relatively unchanged, the number of e, b, 's available, change down the rate of ab adoption rows sharply. and if you look at each of these and the rate is actually proof of just one thing. and that is, public data works the display, no ways the, the success story. there are a few concerns that are too many easy with the race to meet the 0 emissions go does concern the charging that what was the able to support the number of these the country is expect tv and professor is not good. let's do the only reason you can go from north to south in no way within the v is because of

the tesla. we don't have an interest tester today that can handle 5 times as many cars as soon as of today today. there's obviously like all the and so called normal charging for ac, charging for people to use on a weekly basis when they exit or just park in the street. so that's probably one of the challenges going forward. them. there's a worry that incentives to buy a these are acting as a deterrence to people using public transport, something the government is activity trying to remedy. so we have urban growth deal . that is an agreement between the local authorities and the governments in the big cities, making sure that we have for the semesters, it's a month to reducing the drastic gross or stating that the gross in traffic should be with public transport, working, or cycling. all the somebody that has sparsely populated country like norway, with great distances between cities,

would ever be able to complete the wean itself of the comp. i think you're pretty to lose the few things that norway can do only with public transport in the whole country. but in the city like also berg and the biggest cities always say it's a very major push to, to have public transport and have people, bike and, and fox. but even the world's e v capital has a long way to go to fully electrify its transport. the remaining part now to make it successful for all segment, also the heavy duty vehicles just to make sure that we have charging stations or heavy duty vehicles. so that's the next step in electrifying that. no, we didn't transport sector when we talked about the that up to 2025 go. we're very close to reaching it for passenger cars. but for light duty vehicles we know so well we don't perfect. where are you still have a way to go that are um,

well the energy going into know ways tvs is green, mainly hydro and wins that are often a few eyebrows raised over the fact that norway is a significant exposure of fossil fuels. we are in touch with the really noise of nestle, fortunately is based on a noise. there's no worries to go look at no races, especially green concrete exports, i guess, to your face, the an important measure to have image of security in this confidence when it comes to transports. there is also an aspect to remember that electricity is more energy efficient. then, and also do the best we have discernment transports, well, other things increased focusing on changing the energy assistance from profiles to say, news or, and as that happens, all the demands for so we sell and gas from europe will decrease gray areas aside. the question remains to new ways a, be success, be replicated by the rest of the well to come back time. it seems, well,

there are lessons to be learned. i will send more countries with you like your when do strong policies. you can buy a new car today as part of the tiers. it's ridiculous, but replicating the methods used by which country with the funding, green energy and the fed, the small population is always going to be tricky. this is left about the leasing being are different from over. ready this is about the reason having to buy supercars to being electric because of the tax and system. and that's really the main site. the, the noise is exhausting more than 6000000 motorbike because horse, the waste switch at night every day. emerson levels of sky high, things need to change the climate document alignment and putting in

a climate change means we have to ship from combustion engines to electric vehicles . more leaders have promised to gradually reduce watson mules and to have us better now gave it was like 2050 or 2017. by which time their countries will have made a complete split for the 1st initial energy source is low and then a lot of money has been invested already. and change is alondo. wait another ga gov . well, in this one, but we haven't got them which are going to good. young people in particular like doctors do best in on already making the shift. it makes sense economically to claim within just i pollution flemetcher. there's an amount of money on a daily vague so image seems to be a huge role in pollution and climate change thing, which is why the government is promoting electric. right? goes, i decided to buy an easy saving money and also so that i could do my bit, switch to the mobility is also an opportunity for the city stop. it's like

fulfilling it's electric to be low is deliver goods from online retailers. the company says it's okay ministration, the new marketing, the monument, public people, the public was notice several benefits, the no maintenance costs. avoiding rising fuel costs, fuel and less pollution. ok. so in the cost, people can save a lot of money by going electric. thank you to the capital of canada. got is known as india, silicon valley, despite it's 56 every day soon. it has the same levels of noise and, and felicia as an old industrial city, one company has recently converted, it's and dial lead to electric, weakness drivers like this and not very impressed. you look to have a goods are easy to drive. there are no gears or plots him what we get to be in an extra letter. so they are much nice at the drive and traffic. we had to 31 and put

them the capital of get into your position as part of the zip drive to get a handle on air pollution by deafening images, regulations updating the diesel engine as of the regular defects. and you know, would have been very expensive for district shop with usa. so instead, the bid a brand new me run on electricity on like a warranty decision. uh, the government at that time, they uh, you know, know that, that will be initiated. and as i pulled it up for us, what is the 1st time and find out what i mean this evening. and so the only refund from the, from this the company. so you, company with the government are getting those government grants bios a subsidy of up 220002 be around $350.00 units on ebay cruise, which easy plus those tax exemption for 5 years. but critics say the take up is

still far too low. and the, the for the last and i'm a claimant didn't mean to get on if we want to mitigate climate change is that we have to stop using fossil fuels. if they even have given you how to go, and i'm going to go to put a good call, scientists and research, ultimately we have just 70 is go, reduce emissions by 50 percent. we get the ability to download it another minute and then, but that's not a lot of time and we have to double that late. we are currently moving ad on them. and that means leaving loss of cheese to email you at the moment kim, on that one of the plans we sent out talk about charging infrastructure is still insufficient. and of course the electricity used to josh electric vehicles must come from renewables. that's the only way they can be truly sustainable. nonetheless, these initiatives in southern india are making a small but important contribution towards aquino future.

these images made headlines worldwide. in july, this burning cargo ship was carrying nearly 500 electric and more than 3000 other vehicles off the dutch coast. many feared it would create environmental have ok if it's facts, especially because of the electric vehicles on board was the fear justified? easy battery fires are difficult to control misleading. since the cars have been on the market, they have been making headlines about the dangers of batteries exploding and extinguish level fires. according to exports like dick's, i was the number of fires, and e cars is much more to conventional combustion engine cars. but if they catch fire, they are hotter and it takes more water to put the fire out, and many also fear the fire. so why do we have night hours after being extinguished?

there's only few of the cells really bent into fire and the other ones might have a pre damage but has not been burned. and so the energy is still in as maybe if you start moving the car or it's some one to spills on some critical electrical parts or whatever. you may have reactions somewhat later, according to a us insurance service provider. there have been only $25.00 fires 410-0000 electric vehicle sales for a year. they less than in combustion cars. another claim surrounding the fires of the car batteries is that the high will touch this m e and batteries pose the risk of electric shock to emergency responders from exposure to the high will to to components of a damaged lithium ion battery. if you go, for example, to us fire administration, there are special instructions, how to handle fires connected cars, and one of the warnings. it's exactly that. so high temperatures possibility. so

for electric shock because the battery keeps running. and also another thing because of the high temperature, if you're trying to apply water on the electric car, in some cases, it might end up a flyer in flaring up, but the misinformation surrounding cars is not only about the dangers they may cause many also claim they're not worth the investment, as you can only drive short votes with them. they want to mandatory electric cars. the cars go for like 2 of 2 hours. what are you going to do? everyone is going to be sitting on the highway. we're all going to be looking for a little plug in this claim by former us president donald trump left many surprised because it was an ever up to your turn from his previous support of new cars. but is it true? electric cars can't drive for more than 2 hours, misleading. typically, a bad police efficiency is measured in terms of distance covered. not the time elapsed according to a cheap cheap by the electric vehicle database electric vehicles can typically

travel an average of approximately 350 kilometers on a single charge, depending on their make and capacity. if we adopt this benchmark, a simple google search reveals that covering such a distance would require nearly 4 and a half hours in the us. on german, out to bonds restrictions without speed limits a bound one could even travel 350 kilometers in slightly over 3 and a half hours. however, according to a study by the american automobile association, driving conditions including hot and cold weather, also affect the range of an easy. for instance, researchers found that the average range for decrease by 40 percent due to full temperatures, antique, actually, most of the driving of electric cars has in c t, where the electric cars are performing much better. so the that to our seats, definitely exaggeration. and you can even add a little bit more color to that,

that the best cars car and the reach are on the market. given you city, 100 miles, 360 miles full 100 miles on the driving range. but people are not only worried about the efficacy of new cars, but also about their sustainability. easy batteries have a short life span faults. it is difficult to determine the exact live spend on vaccines and electric vehicles due to their limited presence overtime. nearly one 3rd of all electric vehicles hit the rose just last year. however, a recent study suggests that the batteries put out last the vehicles themselves. it indicates that batteries replacements are relatively rare, with just over $200.00 batteries. out of 15000, the owners needing replacement, according to most of the manufacturers backs these come with a variety of 8 years, or 160000 kilometers japanese car maker nissan recently claimed the almost all easy

batteries the manufacturer are still in use. and it's on started, it's easy production more than 12 years ago. similarly, test left states that it's vehicles in the us typically drive an average of 320000 kilometers and nearly 250000 kilometers in europe before being retired. compared to a combustion engine car, the life span of an e car battery is much longer. according to the american auto mobile association, factories of a combustion engine, a car have an average of only 3 to 5 years. but some exceptional cases of older cars, lasting 10 years. but the reason i'm getting better and better, and some of them are claiming much longer ranges. but indeed battery is the very expensive piece of the equipment. and if you are planning to have your car much longer, i don't know 1520 years. well then indeed, you would need to replace the battery or another common narrative surrounding

claims about in cars is that it is an ethical to buy them. as child labor is behind the production of their batteries. children are involved in the production of electricity, hickle's show a series of social media posts, as well as human rights activists. claim that children are involved in the production of electric vehicles. these claims mentioned the cobalt mining operations in the democratic republic of congo. cobalt is one of the essential elements needed in producing lithium batteries. these batteries are used to the electric vehicles, but not just their cobalt as also needed for producing batteries for smartphones and computers. media research shows children have been involved in coal. both mining in the d. r c's mind. this fact has been covered by mainstream media on numerous occasions and child's rights activists have been raising awareness for it as well. as not 20 percent of the cold is extracted through our teeth

means meaning, you know, just people with basic tools digging to get some some rocks and some examples. ready so we know that in these 20 percent of coal that subtracted in our t z minds, there is a huge problem of children working in these mines. car companies are researching alternatives for cobalt to produce bachelors and some have announced the only use ethically, mind coal both. for example, german card manufacturer bmw has said it's owned by the component directly from australia and morocco. however, a report by the i pcc notes concerns about the widespread adoption of factory technologies, including the growing concerns about resource availability, labor rights, non climate environmental impacts, and costs of critical minerals needed for lithium e on batteries. despite their search and popularity,

electric cars constituting less than 15 percent of the global market share, never the less experts remain convinced that these vehicles we present the future of transportation and more automotive tales next time on risk, the

the computers read minds all over the world scientists are studying communications between the mines and computers. artificial intelligence began decoding or thoughts long ago. is it just a matter of time before it's able to completely understand how we see tomorrow today? in 30 minutes on the w. united by a shared sense of purpose. their bond has never been stronger. the twins,
