Are you serious? Do you not understand the difference between birth rate decline and migration?

A mobile phone can tell you the status of its battery, the same can be done with EVs.

Based on what? What's your expertise on the matter? Have you calculated the significance of it on birth rate, economic impact, trends?... Nah, just something to say, right?

I didn't say I was an expert on the matter. I only spoke of my experience of kids of several friends living there. As usual you only read what you want.

I know several mid 20s kids in Europe with a couple years practical degrees who are bounced from full time 2-3 years temp to temp jobs paid below minimum wage, hoping for a full time, permanent position at minimum wage. It is so difficult to reduce your workforce in Europe that employers are...

That's a no end discussion about cost of labor versus living wage. The US in particular has always had these low paid jobs for skill less labor, like kids in school or new migrants. They weren't meant to be living wage jobs, more like pocket money or subsistence wages that one climbed out of...

I was watching a Munro breakdown of the Cybertruck battery pack a few days ago. The hard sealant used to protect the packs are an sob to remove and I can't see how bad batteries can be swapped at all. Certainly there needs to be some sort of mandatory quality certification on these batteries...

It's like paying burger flippers $30/hr. Why not?

Humans have well figured out the art of killing. We can expect this will not end.

The point of my post was to discuss the implications of such significant drops in birthrates. For example, demand will drop, so supply will either become more expensive or will disappear. Unemployment will drop unless businesses shut down faster. We already see retirement age being pushed...

You need to either make the effort to search or get better a researching info: I know that Singapore has one of the world's lowest birth rate, with Japan and Korea. Is the Indonesian birth rate declining? The birth rate for Indonesia in 2023 was 16.817 births per 1000 people, a 1.63% decline...

Yeah, life does have a way of throwing curve balls, and you might have to deal with it.

Ok, not 100%. But not 32% either: "Renewable generation supplied 61% of the electricity consumption in Portugal in 2023, totalling 31.2 TWh, the highest-ever recorded value in the Portuguese national system. Wind power supplied 25% of the consumption in Portugal, hydropower contributed 23%...

Different subject, but yeah I agree with you. PG&E is one of those "too big to fail" northern CA company with 12000 union workers making well above average pay in high paying California. In effect, you're subsidizing union labor so they can live middle class lives in expensive greater Bay...

2022 data? Things move quickly in the green energy space. There are nearly a dozen smaller countries that are today on 100% green energy, like Portugal, Costa Rica, A couple Scandinavian nations... And several large countries that are at or near 50% renewables.
