I am curious to know how they'll handle a Canadian winter. Snow, ice, temperatures that can go into the minus 30 range in my area. Lower in other parts o' da country.

I just wish provincial governments (like the one we have here in Ontario) wouldn't do stupid shit like tell the voters they're gonna clean up a problem (like smog for instance) and then turn around and hand millions of dollars over to the auto sector to build Camaros. This very thing was done earlier this year here in Ontario.

From the website, "2005: ... Startups now possible at -30°C."

Garbage (except dangerous items, batteries etc.) will only be collected if it is in bags which either have a payment sticker attached, or in official bags with the surcharge paid when the bags are purchased. This gives a financial incentive to recycle as much as possible, since recycling is free

the big problem, be it my homegrown wind generator or most of these electric cars is the batteries - 2k to 4k to get started and then the same cost every few years for replacement. that kind of removes the incentive regardless of your motivation.

You know, the more I read, the more I see...
