he gets expose, going to make sure you find out about all the story info, migraines, reliable news for language, wherever they may be, the if you look up easy. no, it is actually just one thing that is probably worth. c the did you know that norway, so the way more electric cars per capita than the us. norway. well buddy isn't kidding. but how did a nation built on 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 argue that to use the buying electric vehicle. that's the most important thing for the crime. as of yet suspected of too many of these maybe there's most of this electric utopia then meets the eye as well to understand new ways, the obsession. we 1st got to rewind to the 1918, believe it or not, no ways know the, these goes way back to the late eighty's when since pop band hall was in switzerland. and so for us to come to the, to being converted to run on an electric power lead seeing a motion hawk, it brought a similar costs in no way where he began driving. it seemed bust names refusing to pay toll talking fees. the arguments ease with good for the environment and to be incentivized that call go to him, pounded many times. i'm put up for auction at which point the band would buy it

back and repeat that performance. they were sped on by environmentalists, frederick conk, and how old and rustic the on 6 had the desired effect on the pump revolution helped to give way to the countries e v. revolution. the, it's a part of the beginning of the story. it doesn't say, but a lot has happened since then. this is christina boone, the secretary general of to know which an e b association, a non profit founded in 1995. that helped advocate for easy adoption shape policy and the age between the government and bias. possibly a little more influential than uh huh. in transforming no way into the land of the e. v and into a country eat on musk. no the today no ways. e b statistics of funk cuz study shows that is accounted for 82.4

percent of no ways. you passenger cost sales in 2023. and that's not including plug in hybrids. and in 2020 for those because somebody becomes strong. we aren't 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, we might be able to reach a climate goal, which is a very good feeling. she's referring to know 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, that writing 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 rush. but it tells the story, and nobody has to be in it sort of the 4th through the fast pizza. around is the editor in chief of norwegian, comm magazine. my tongue. the 1st cars have been the breakdowns and the cars now because a lot of the bad press for the act together and they have really stepped up so, so they are, they are a today have a good, strong positioned in people's thinking about think about the brand 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 that 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. why was no waste best selling. com with over 23000 units sold around 3 and

a half times as many as it's near restoring volt, the volkswagen id full. which isn't to say that nobody doesn't have any issues with the test. it's thrown it support behind its neighbors. sweet way unions of demanding the best of 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 no regions have been steadily, e. v missed both the things they gained, the fact the ease of gain such rapid popularity in the cold, vast no denounced gait has 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 lagging 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. the climate law. this is rag nodes says that the state secretary of new ways, climates and environment ministry. and it turns out henry gibson was really the norwegian government didn't just draft thousands what policies instead, they did things. the early ease in norway will ult looking machines that reminded you of kermit the frog the sink city. but the, for example, went exactly the most popular cause in the country. that historically has no drawing thing fella get out of the country that's produced. some

pretty phenomenal drive is nice to so back fits the electric mobility isn't a pulse, is an issue, a new way. the specific goal of having all new sales of vehicles in 2025 to be 0 emission is the the goal that has been there all along across different governments. i think part of the success in norway is but the cat, the policies in place for a long time. and it's partly due to the different political parties agreed at least to certain extent degree, 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 the drivers 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 claim within the eco spring. so it's not necessary to have a really expensive electric vehicles, just the function of a one, a reasonable price, and as a be used as encouraged to help make the $22050.00 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. and it's the politicians that has decided this goal and they have to use and they are using the mixtures, they have to make it happens. and those semesters is the text,

is that we have ignore way in practically practical terms. it means taxing ice cars or combustion 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 well, policies remains relatively unchanged. the number of e b, 's available, change down the rate of ab adoption rows sharply. then if you look at each of these in the rate, is actually proof of just one thing. and that is, public data works fine, no ways the success story, there are a few concerns that are too many easy with the race to meet the 0 emissions go. those concerned the charging that what was the able to support the number of eighty's the country is expect tv and professor is not good. let's do the only reason you can go from north to south and 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 students as to do today. there's always the lock off and so call 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. and 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 follows and measures to a meant to reducing the dressing gross or stating that the gross in traffic should be with public transport, working, or cycling. all the somebody that has spouse, the populated country like norway, with great distances between cities,

would ever be able to completely wean itself off the comp. i think you're pretty to do 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 a 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 2025 go, we're very close to reaching it for passenger cars. but for light duty vehicles we know somewhere we don't perfect. what is the ways to go with it or?

um, well, the energy going into know ways these is green mainly hydro and wins that are often a few eyebrows raised over the fact that norway is a significant exposure of fossil fuel. we are in touch with the do really noise of nestle, fortunately is based on roy, there's the worst of or look at noises, especially green concrete, the exports, i guess, to your, of those the, an important mission to have. and then just security in this confidence when it comes to transports, there is also an aspect to remember that electricity is more energy efficient. then also do we have to start with from 4 to 12 other your thinking pre focusing on changing the energy assistance from above to see news or and as that happened so far. oh, so you know, and gas from europe really increased gray areas aside. the question remains to new ways a b success be replicated by the rest of the well to come back time. it seems,

well, there are lessons to be and i will study more countries within like your way do strong policies. you can buy a new car today as part of the 20 years. it's ridiculous. but replicating the methods used by which country with a funding, green energy and a fairly small population is always going to be tricky. this is left about the leasing team are different from other people. this is about the reason i'm having to talk with you and to buy super cars, 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 and cause horse the weight switch at night every day. emerson levels of sky high things need to change the climate document. climate and the thing in

a climate change means we have to ship from combustion engine to electric vehicles . our leaders have promised to gradually their news, watson, mules, and to have us better now go to like 2015 or 2017. by which time their countries will have made a complete split for the assess, the initial energy source is low and then a lot of money has been invested already. and change is alondo. wait another got a well in this one. let me have it done. i'm going to going to go with young people in particular like doctors do best in on already making the shift. it makes sense economically too much in just i pollution flemetcher. there's an amount of money on a daily was very so image seems to be a huge role in air pollution and climate change thing, which is why the government is promoting electric right? goes, i decided to buy and even save money and also so that i could do my big switch to be mobility is also an opportunity for the city stop. it's like really it's

electric to be low, is deliver goods from online retailers. the company says it's a paid benefit to ration the new york public people. the public was noticed several benefits, the low 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 included, the capital of canada got is known as india, silicon valley, despite it's $56.00 different station. 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 flats yet to be in an extra letter, so they are much nice at the drive and traffic. we had to do one and put them the

capital of get it up. you provision authorities have drive to get a handle on air pollution by deafening images, regulations, updating the diesel engine. as of every goes to fit the new norm would have been very expensive for district shop with usa. so instead to build a brand new lease, 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 order enough for us. what is the 1st time and find out what i'm in this evening. and i'm slowly re file from the, from the company to company with the are getting those government grants. bio is a subsidy of up 220002 be around $350.00 units on e, because with cheesy plus as all tax exemption for 5 years. but critics see the take

up is still far too low on that before they let and i'm a claimant in i'm going to get on. if we want to mitigate climate change is that we have to stop using fossil fuels, either favor they've given young and i'm going to go to the scientists and research . ultimately, we have just 70 is go, reduce emissions by 50 percent. we get the ability to download it and have a 1000000, and that's not a lot of pain and we have to double that late. we are currently moving ad on them. and that means leaving mess up fees to email you at the moment, kim, on that, what am as you can switch them out, talk about georgi infrastructure is still insufficient and of course the electricity use 2 jobs for electric vehicles must come from renewables. that's the only way they can be truly sustain it. but 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 sang, 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 bachelors exploding and extinguish of all fires according to exports like dix. i was the number of fires, and e cars is much more compare 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. then the other ones might have a pre damage but has not been burned. and so the energy is still in, and maybe if you start moving the car or it so some water spills on some critical electrical parts or whatever. you may have reaction somewhat later, according to a us insurance service provider. there have been only $25.00 fires 410-0000 electric vehicles sales for a year. they less than and combustion cars. another claim surrounding the fires of the car batteries is that the high wilted victim, e and batteries poses 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 fire and electric cars. and one of the warnings is 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 inc. 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 you turn from his previous to port of new cars. but is it true? electric cars can't drive for more than 2 hours, misleading? typically a batch please. 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 of 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's an average range for decrease by 40 percent, due to full temperatures and heat. actually, most of the driving of electric cars has in c t where the electric cars are performing much better. so the that to hours, these different exaggeration. and you can even add a little bit more color to that,

that the best cars car into 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, tesla 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 automobile association, batteries of a combustion engine, a car have an average of only 3 to 5 years with 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 very expensive piece of the equipment. and if you are planning to cast your car much longer, i don't know 1520 years. well then indeed, you would need to replace the battery. 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. the 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 with 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 stays mines. this fact has been covered by mainstream media on numerous occasions. and child's rights activists has been raising awareness for it as well. about 20 percent of the cold is extracted through our teasing

no means meaning, you know, just people with basic tools digging to get some, some rocks and some examples. so we know that in these 20 percent of coal that subtracted excuse me minds. there is a huge problem of children working in these mines. car companies are researching alternatives for cobalt to produce batteries. and some have announced the only use ethically mind cold. but for example, german car manufacturer, bmw, has said it's owned by the component directly from australia and moral code. however, a report by the i p. c. c. notes concerns about the widespread adoption of battery technologies, including the growing concerns about resource availability, labor rights, non climate environmental impacts, and costs of critical minerals needed for lithium eon batteries. despite their searching popularity,

electric cars constituted 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 rev the

the air conditioning systems that fight climate change. researchers and engineers are developing sustainable cooling models for private household in city districts. they applies tend to use old wisdom about wind and weather and combine it with full ideas to create something new tomorrow today in 30 minutes on the double, you know, global training with us but their carbon footprint is disasters.
