Or you could use the money to build really good charging infrastructure, and accept that a truckload arrives in 2 days and 6 hours instead of 2 days and 3 hours. Then you don't need a nuclear power plants worth of electricity in lost efficiency from charging wirelessly.

Or you know; trains for long haul freight... Regional freight should be perfectly possible with wired charging...

"Should from 2035 no longer any new fossil fueled vehicles be allowed?" Yes/no?

That feels like the worst possible way to phrase that question, or is that just me? Isn't it very susceptible to people answering; "No, they shouldn't be allowed", thereby accidentally answering contrary to their opinion?

It's honestly horrifying, how much of a rabid surveillance and police state the UK has become in later years. And baffling how relatively quietly it has happened...

As fast as it will roll down a hill. A non-critical mass of plutonium isn't going to produce any significant heat for the boiler.

Honestly; I hate when tourists do that, because it gives me linguistic whiplash and then i can't parse the first English sentence following the greeting.

I know the French seem to be more friendly and cooperative if you start out with whatever little French you might know, but Scandinavians generally prefer if you just start out in English.
