First Commercial Electric Airplane set to fly

[Northern Spy]

Green zealots travel by BTUs provided by jet fuel I betcha. I do know that anti mining groups buy and use ( plastic, Li, P, Cu, Ni, Co and Na) battery powered EVs.

Harbor Air's quest aside, the use of EV drones in so many applications appears a definite commercial success.

I meant that it makes good business sense as a red herring. It doesn't have to make good commercial sense. It just has to keep them in the papers so that many of the performative environmentalists in Victoria and Vancouver can justify their weekend getaway to Salt Spring/Whistler/Tofino via Harbour Air.

They are coming.

True. But they are unlikely to be converted floatplanes designed in 1947 and last built 58 years ago, nor is it likely to be practical in the next 5 years. 10 years? Maybe.

I betcha those anti air pollution groups breathe air, too.

It is possible to oppose the abuses of past and current practices without total
abstinence from the benefits derived thereof while promoting improved methods.

You need not be a 'zealot' to see the inherent problem of unchecked mining access
to 'public' and indigenous peoples land without sufficient oversight and fees paid.

To what "unchecked mining access" are you referring?

To what "unchecked mining access" are you referring?

The ones the "anti mining groups" and "green zealots" are against.
