As climate change exacerbates natural disasters, it is good to see electric vehicle owners stepping into the breach to provide backup power in an emergency. We have read about EVs “keeping the lights on,” and even powering a dialysis machine, but can we use them effectively and regularly to support the grid? Can I power my house with an EV, not just use it to make my coffee and not just in an emergency? Is vehicle-to-grid truly achievable? Can I make money out of it? Some progress is being made since I last wrote about this.

( ) – Small SUVs and crossovers have replaced midsize sedans as the best-selling cars in the U.S. because they offer a combination of roomy interior space, practical cargo space, car-like maneuverability, and some of the highest EPA-rated fuel economy numbers available in a traditional front-wheel drive or all-wheel-drive SUV. And while higher gas prices have forced buyers to reconsider fuel economy when shopping for a new car, buyers should also research advanced safety features, like adaptive cruise control, and convenience factors like the infotainment system and automatic parking, before committing to a purchase.

You may not be familiar with Ritsumeikan in Kyoto, Japan, but researchers there say they may have an answer to the curse of so-called “forever chemicals,” also known at PFAS, the class of chemicals used in many commercial applications that are so durable that they resist breaking down for decades, or longer. That might not be a problem were it not for the fact that they have been identified as risk factors that contribute to a variety of human health concerns such as cancer. They also are thought to affect the development of human embryos in the womb, and not in a good way.

The 2025 Mazda CX-70 is an all-new SUV with two rows of seating and plenty of room for cargo. It slots in just below the three-row CX-90, and the two have a lot in common - this is pretty much a CX-90 minus that extra row.

“[I]nvoking the favor and guidance of Almighty God,” the Constitution of the Confederate States of America composed by southern slaveholders in 1861 sought to “establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity.” The authors of Project 2025, the latest playbook for restructuring the federal government in order to accomplish the policy goals of Christian Nationalists, similarly declare their manifesto will “decide America’s future” by securing their “God-given individual rights to live freely” and exercise dominion over others.
