You are seriously deluded and advocate killing people. Air pollution from fossil fuel use is killing 5 million people worldwide every year, a death toll much higher than previously estimated, according to the largest study of its kind. Air pollution from fossil fuels ‘kills 5 million people a year’ | Air pollution | The Guardian Utter rubbish, a concocted estimation model promoted by an anti-fossil fuel enterprise. https://www.bmj.com/content/383/bmj-2023-077784 The numbers of people dying from the proposed elimination fossil fuels would DWARF the claimed deaths of elderly people suggested in this wild projection.

I guess the failure of EV sales in Britain and Europe has put you off your game, Rob. Calm down, old boy. I am calm, I'm calmly telling you to stop posting opinion and post facts instead! You prefer lies, so I'll put you straight again, thats if youre able to read and comprehend! EU car sales surged by almost 14% in 2023, with over 10.5 million new registrations. Battery-electric sales soared by an impressive 37% and now command close to a 15% market share EU car sales on the up in 2023, with electric models increasingly popular - ACEA - European Automobile Manufacturers' Association 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The complaint that Coe and his group may have paid for publication costs is not a serious complaint, it appears to be a standard practice in the science journal trade. That was the point. They wouldn't have to pay much that publication, They clearly do not require peer review, or editorial review. From receipt to publication less than a month? Too funny. Most people get comments back from the peer review and have to do more research or fix errors the reviewers request. You can try to argue with the reviews but that just slows it down more. The paper was Received: August 2, 2021; Accepted: August 11, 2021; Published: August 23, 2021 You can be upset that nobody cares what Coe thinks just like you can be upset that nobody listens to you. Have you considered writing a letter to the author asking if he believes his paper is groundbreaking? His e-mail address is readily available. I bet he would answer honestly and say "no, it is a simple model." He has probably moved on himself from that paper and may even want to distance himself from it.

Ecocharger + 1,384 DL March 15 The trend is clear and growing...EVs are out, fossil fuel cars are in. https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/ford-ev-sales-fall-january-amid-demand-slowdown-2024-02-02/ "Ford Motor (F.N), opens new tab reported an about 11% fall in January sales of electric vehicles (EV) on Friday, as the industry grapples with shrinking demand for the cars that are typically costlier than their gasoline-powered counterparts." "Ford said it would reduce production of its marquee F-150 Lightning electric pickup truck at its Michigan Rouge EV plant, and increase production of gas-powered Bronco SUVs and Ranger pickups. High prices of EVs and concerns about the limited range of these cars, especially in rural areas due to lack of charging infrastructure, have fueled sales of hybrid vehicles."

Perhaps there would be some socioeconomic damage but highly unlikely as the poor nations are already poor; taking away oil they can't afford isn't a big issue for many people around the world. They are already doing subsistence living with no oil. Is that good? No, but the oil industry hasn't helped bringing them out of poverty; is that going to change now? Regardless, the topic was the health effects of exhaust, socioeconomic damage from the green transition doesn't change the fact PM 2.5 and benzene cause cancer in humans and lab animals.

They probably have plenty too say, you just don't look, or if you find something contrary to your opinion, you actively hide it. You never post full quotations and often hide the link to source. You know you have to actually read the journals to know what they are working on. I suspect you only read stuff that is free online (you get what you pay for). Do you know that public libraries have free journal access? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Of course everyone in the field is aware of this paper, but there are no challenges coming forward. That is what science is, if a paper's conclusions are not challenged that paper attains higher status. Wake me up when you find some scientist with a serious challenge to this work. Oh, and by the way, I challenged you to tell me whether or not Darwin completed his PhD at Cambridge. Tell me the answer.
