"The most recent official fuel mix statistics by the state of Washington for Seattle City Light show approximately 89.6% hydroelectric, 4.3% nuclear, 3.6% wind, 0.9% coal, 0.9% other (including biomass, natural gas, petroleum and waste), and 0.7% landfill gases." Only 2.5% of Seattle's electricity comes from fossil fuel sources. Bumphing 3.6% to 6.1% isn't that hard a task to accomplish. ;) |

Swedish passenger rail is afaik running on 100% renewable ('cept for the few diesel lines). Not hard at all considering the amount of hydro we've got. |
Calgary's CTrain has been powered by wind for 20 years.

An NYC think tank has a surprisingly simple solution for fixing Penn Station
Biometric markers could replace physical payment methods, speeding entry for passengers (and discouraging fare evaders) |
What I don't understand is how insurance will work with self-driving cars.
If the computer screws up and gets in an accident, how can the individual be held responsible if they weren't driving the car? Isn't that like holding a passenger liable for an accident that the driver got into? If the "driver" is held responsible for a car he/she wasan't driving does that give them the right to sue the car manufacturer? I think self-driving cars are going to be a non-stop insurance nightmare. The lawyers will love it but I think this is opening up a whole can of legal worms. |
