HURRICANE IDA

This hurricane has continued to wreak havoc as its wind intensity diminishes. Its capacity for rain though has caused multiple deaths in New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Meanwhile in the mid-Atlantic Hurricane Larry has already recorded wind speeds close to 130kph. Its course is too early for great predictions but could cause problems in a weeks time. At present it looks like it could cause problems in the Bermuda region and then then Canadas Atlantic provinces, having been deflected away from the USA coast by the jet stream. It is only the start of September so we can expect more activity over the next 6-8 weeks.

ELECTRIC CARS

Shell announce plans for 150000 charging points by 2025. Presumably BP and other companies will instal similar numbers. Add to these public charging points those who have, or will, install charging points at home it would seem likely that there will be enough infrastructure in place.
