A real world test of using an EV for power storage for a residence. At present, the combined cost of an EV and the system to make it part of the house energy system is to high for most middle class people, that cost will be steadily declining. As new, more energy dense and less costly batteries come online, as solar efficiencies increase, we will see more and more that energy for the grid will become less point source and more spread out. Agrivoltaics, residential, parking lots, ect. combined with bidirectional charging will create a far more robust and dependable grid.
OR,
Those of us committed to the scientific method and the honesty that is essential to moving scientific discovery forward for the good of humanity and, yes preserving our environment, cannot get onboard with the schemes of those of you on the left because the data and scientific foundation of your cause is not only false, but it is deliberately fraudulent.
The observational data does not support crisis, climate catastrophy, runaway warming, or any other imagined fear mongering.
The observational data supports negative feedbacks, i.e. diminishing impact with increased CO2 levels, not positive feedback.
The examples of fraud, and the publishing and promotion of falsifiable data that is presented as fact for the purpose of misleading the public are too numerous to count. This has been going on for decades.
That being the case, opponents on the issue of warming/climate change fall into two categories,
1) those of us who rigorously seek out falsifying data - which is necessary to the scientific method.
1A) and having found that the theory in laboratory settings is sound, but is not supported in real world data observations - we remain intellectually honest and reject the thesis that CO2 is causing, or will cause, catastrophic warming/climate change.
and,
2) those of you who refuse to adhere to sound scientific practices, and blindly accept the word of "experts", who tell you "the debate is over", so no need to look for yourself. They expect you to be stupid, and just believe what they tell you to believe.
2A) you then are told to be "activists" in true Marxist revolutionary fashion, and engage in ad hominem attacks against anyone who does cite the data which falsifies your whole undertaking.
You call us "deniers", antiscience, even racist because you unbelievably try to make the argument that those of us who actually follow science want brown and black people to die from heat and rising sea levels.
