Everybody's lookin' for Stilton
Who am I to dis a brie?
I was checking my weather app, and they fed me an ad for something that I didn't even know what it was, so I went to the website, clicked around a bunch, just so they thought I was interested. All Praise be to VPN! Sometimes reinforcing a mis-impression is the best thing one can do.
They serve no purpose for which I have a need.
Rust never sleeps!
Yay! Thank you! Adding it to the archive. I keep my car in the level 3 regeneration, so mostly "coast" up to the stop. I'm glad to see such significant reduction. Also because I breath a lot of that dust when I'm cycling, less particulates = better.
Edit: Some key findings from the paper:
Key finding #3.8: As the level of electrification of a vehicle rises, the dependence on regenerative braking also increases, thus lowering PM emissions from brake wear. Based on recent evidence [30], regenerative braking can reduce, in the worst- case scenario (i.e. highest usage of mechanical brakes or equivalently lowest usage of regenerative braking), brake wear emissions by 10-48% for hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), 66% for plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs), and 83% for battery electric vehicles (BEVs)
Key finding #3.13: Vehicle weight is directly proportional to tyre wear emissions. For example, a car with a 20% higher mass demonstrated a 20% increase in tyre wear [13]. Electric cars are around 20% heavier than the equivalent conventional cars, so they emit around 20% more tyre wear [40], [42], [43].
It will cost quite a bit to destroy that 9.7mil of our taxes, as well. SMH
The additional weight, yes, as posted by @avidamoeba. Tho' those are different things, apples to oranges - brake dust and tire dust are not the same. With the power that some EVs have it's really easy to accelerate rapidly leading to faster tire wear. That is a choice made by the driver. I put my EV in eco mode, and gently accelerate. And try to ride my bike as much as possible, instead of my car. On the bike, I often try to accelerate as fast as possible, for cardiovascular and other health reasons, including just plain having fun!
I like to read WomenStuff because It helps me to understand the concerns of people who are different from myself, and knowing the rules; I don't mind not posting because that's the rule. So get on wit yo bad self, WomenStuff.
I tend to use a rolling pin to crush the eggshells before distributing them to the garden. A moderately coarse grind can help to repel snails and slugs, as it's appears to be uncomfortable for them to crawl over. I don't think I could get the same level of coarse grind by walking on them, besides, it would probably be uncomfortable for me, as well.
