In 2023, the percentage of car sales that were electric in major countries was: China: Just under 60% of new electric car registrations Europe: Just under 25% of new electric car registrations United States: Just under 10% of new electric car registrations Explanation Electric car sales are increasing globally, but they are still concentrated in a few major markets. China, Europe, and the United States account for about two-thirds of total car sales and stocks. The EV transition in these markets has major repercussions for global trends.

Ecocharger + 1,506 DL 6 hours ago (edited) Oil prices are soaring and are expected to about 90 U.S. dollars going forward. Like any forecast, there is some range of uncertainty involved, so readers should not get overly agitated (some readers routinely become overagitated as a style of protest). https://oilprice.com/Energy/Oil-Prices/Goldman-Sachs-Geopolitical-Risk-Could-Send-Oil-Prices-Even-Higher.html "The Wall Street bank expects Brent Crude prices to trade in a range of $70-$85 per barrel. The loss of some Russian supply could reduce or even wipe out the currently expected surplus in the oil market. Strict sanctions enforcement on Iran could send Brent to nearly $90 per barrel: Goldman Sachs." Edited 6 hours ago by Ecocharger 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You do not understated simple calculus as an actual economist would. You should understand the differences between F(x), F'(x), and F''(x). EV sales are up by your own post.

Quotes in Michael Wolff books In January 2018, upon the publication of Michael Wolff's book Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House, which attributed many controversial and inflammatory statements to Bannon, Bannon and Trump became estranged and were widely seen as enemies.[175][176] Fire and Fury - Content: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Bannon Trump was probably being controlled in his first term... How confident are you, that this soul controlling helmet, described by Disney cartoon on Donald Duck, has been chucked and destroyed for a brand new start? A German incharged of US defence department, ordered a war or attack onto Russia but declined by Obama before he stepped down as his two terms ended. Jared announced the acknowledgement of Israel and shifted US embassy to Jerusalem flared up fire that got Trump impeached with many entailed lawsuits, glitches during election and problems. Bannon revelation: Jared receives money from Deutsche Bank ... Although Jared is one kind person, these interference from german-german jews seemed too bold for a country and its patriotic men to remain silence. What is important to you citizens of United States? That you are Irish descendants, or some other races of origin? A protestant democrat or catholic republican? Worshipper of a son or his mother with extraordinary stories? Or, that your country is ruined by those few regard USA as enemy? Your individualistic due to long term capitalism, selfishness and indifference is failing you and your society.

We use cooking oils that are dangerous and most grew up with hydrogenated margarine and peanut butter and Crisco instead of bacon grease and lard which are healthful. Highly processed foods is a generic term for industrialized food processes and additives that are not good for us. These foods have led us into metabolic syndrome, obesity, and shorter life spans. I think that RFK will be approved for HHS Secretary and will guide some great changes but it will be a never ending struggle to educate people about health issues. Thank you for the info. Truly hope seniors, like yourself, would allocate a little time to keep a record or publish those knowledge gained from life working experience using tools comfortable to you. Sorry to hear about your personal experience. Although it is easy for us to read in few seconds, it must not be easy for you, at times, who are going through those pain... May your knowledge able to help you live healthily with minimal occurrence of back pain, atrial fibrillation mentioned. I'm not sure about RFK. Having halo from his forefathers gives him a lead. In addition, as a turned over new leaf, his personal experience to release his unmentionable sadness would be helpful to those related: drug addicts, thieves, violence inclined etc. Hearsay, no one could deal with Monsanto and still alive to win the case. His influential back stage is making ways for him to have second chance of life. Hopefully, they will help him on healthcare system, processed food, big pharma etc when he is appointed to head relevant department.

You are now CEO of a pharmaceutical company and get paid 10 million per year. The only caveat is you have to take every drug the company makes once? Would you take the Job? Not at all. The diagnostic methods they are using, e.g. - sampling: according to stories spred among patients from a hospital, surgical department, most cases undergoing sampling experienced side effect of sampling methods used. Doctors ( including government scholars from royal medical university of oversea) are ignorance that lacking of after-sampling- care usually causes swelling, infection etc. These doctors then believe the cases are malignant, as it turned bad so quickly, made their decision in seconds to mastect both sides of breast without info from histology department. If they undergo the same procedure, they will probably know better what to do in a more proper way. Their diagnosis would probably be not so far flung off the chart. - mammogram: there are doctors who do not know the right procedure. They took samples first then request for mammogram. The swelling caused by sampling and probably infection give mammogram a positive outcome. If they have gone through it themselves, this mistake would not happen and they would be able to differentiate infection and abnormal mass - histopathology with photographic ability to train their ability to mark out normal tissue and abnormal. Doctors working under this department nowadays do not have the basic knowledge to record colour of samples when they freshly arrive at lab. What they do is memorize what to write for samples soaked in formalin: one whole strip of gray... How do you know? According to a friend, when they receive samples of only white & yellow liquid ( suspecting interstitial accummulate and serum or fat), the reports they write is consistent: one whole strip of gray... If you a) ask them how many slides they examined are abnormal per that sample, they can not answer. b) Lower the expectation to ask "how do you differentiate normal and abnormal cells?" They have memorized the standard answer given: i) samples ( in micrometer, dear friends) on slides feel hard. Calcification is happening. ii) Cell division is visible on one cell. This is progression of cancer cell stage 3. iii) chemical stain show estrogen and progesterone receptors are present. These confirm the case is malignant cancer stage 3... Anyone with basic would know, 1. sample would be blocked in wax, cut, melt, wash, stain. After a piece is put on slide, one touches no more. Is it wax doctors meant by "hard"? How would they know tissue in micron is hard without touching? Calcium will be washed away during the process. Still can identify calcium on slide? 'o' 2. Division of one cell can happen in normal cell too to replace damaged cell. 3. Estrogen and progesterone receptors are present in normal tissue. They response to monthly female menstrual cycle change and the changes of those duo hormones. In laymen term, horniness- stimulation and such will need them. How could it be a certain diagnostic feature of malignancy?? If they have gone through proper training, instead of looking at pictures while driving at speed in classes, this would not happen. 2. Drugs testing - yes. They must make it a rule, so that only qualified personnel will be confident enough to take the post. Not some comedians from wall street or anybody... - it would be hard to recruit the right person with the right attitude. But, at least, they will no longer jeopardize lives of others by simply come out with a quick solution, inferior or fake medicine without being punished.

Heck, do you want men to take birth control pills? Your understanding of medical science is very poor. When i mentioned medication prescribed, yes, i do mean executives of pharma and doctors in training must eat what they will be prescribing. The effect and side effect will show equally well on healthy persons. Father of a friend went to see a doctor. The discomfort had been heart palpitation and swollen legs. Without asking history or recent encounter, the doctor diagnosed that the elder had heart disease and may be kidney problems according to text book. Without other affirmative tools like ECG, x-ray, she prescribed medicine straight away. My friend took the medicine ( a blocker) on his father's behalf to see what gives. He developed severe back pain where kidneys are, swelling, and other unwanted side effect as a healthy person. He went to the doctor again immediately the next day. The doctor dismissed his pain as muscular pain and informed him that position ( near waist) is not where kidneys are. They are near pelvics. The swelling was not a problem. My friend check info to know mechanism of action of the drug and how much time needed to clear it from the body. He found out that, while blocking the receptors at distal tubule to encourage excretion of water, interstitial water accummulated by passive movement before reaching loop of Henry. The swelling caused the pain and other problems. With just muscular pain cream given, he swallowed dense salt water trying to clear it... He was lucky. It works. The father did not take the medicine. The problem has not been heart disease but side effect from modern pain killer taken. Once stopped, heart resume normal function. Swollen legs were not from kidney problems either. It's caused by belly fat blocking back flow. If my friend can take drug for his daddy's sake ( that doze was merely half of what was prescribed), doctors and pharmacists under training can do it too. In addition, pharmacists here deserve equal professional status, if not higher, as general doctors. If doctors who study and housemanship for more than 10 years in medical field turn out still without basic equipped, they should let pharmacists do their job in prescribing. Pharmacists here learn very hard to memorize drug usages, side effects, suitable treatment(s) etc. They do not deserve to be under imbecile doctors i.e find bottles of what doctors prescribed and bagged it. They should be present in the same room as doctor, co-xamine, and prescribe on the spot. This would reduce misdiagnosis made so consistently by modern doctors and give the prestige status back to pharmacists. Nutshell, yes @TailingsPond. Make it a rule that they must eat those with reduced dosages too before they are qualified. Drugs will not linger forever but metabolized. But changes between then should be felt, recorded and reported. Edited 7 minutes ago by specinho Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
