Children are everyone’s hope for positive change. They are every country’s most valuable resource. Children make life sparkle and remind one of the most meaningful parts of life. Perhaps that is one main reason why critical health issues for children are so heartbreaking. Those health issues seem all the more tragic when they come from decisions that humans didn’t have to make, from not thinking through the options in the best overall way.
Just a few weeks after placing his order, the satisfied first customer in Europe has promptly taken delivery of his brand new Nissan LEAF.
What happens when a loved and appreciated EV, the Nissan LEAF, is reinvented? What happens when the highest selling electric car in history gets considerably greater range, a hot new design, and additional advanced technologies? One thing that happens is the car — the new Nissan LEAF — is named as a top 10 finalist in the prized 2018 World Car of the Year awards.
Everyone needs to more determinedly limit or do away with all plastic choices — especially those that go ridiculously far and cross an ocean to be recycled (polluting on the way). The UK is facing an immediate crisis of excess plastic waste. The Chinese said there is to be a halt in taking plastic trash from the UK, which has shipped 2.7 tonnes of plastic scrap for recycling in the past few years to China.
A phenomenal highlight that would add to the experience of any motor show comes to the 2018 London Motor Show for a world-first showing. The London Motor Show has announced that it will host the world’s first Tesla-based production shooting brake at this year’s event. If you’re not up to speed with British car lingo, a shooting brake is an estate car. If you’re still confused, the pictures should help.
Perhaps it is in the buoyant and spunky name, Zoe. Perhaps it’s the good quality for price. Perhaps it’s the style and size. In the end, it’s probably just all of the above. Either way, the eco-consciousness of this wonderful EV combined with other compelling consumer benefits to make it the top selling electric car in Europe last year (yet again), but it doesn’t just win on the market. For many reasons in all directions, this EV is chosen as winner again and again in various competitions and rankings. It just logged three more wins.

There is a contented smile of satisfaction on David Harris’s face as he looks over his stunning, quiet taxi, considered the world’s most advanced electric taxi. Black cab driver David Harris was the first cabbie to receive the keys to LEVC’s (London EV Company’s) new TX electric taxi. His first fare-paying passenger had the pleasure of smooth top-of-the-line transit. Besides the significant environmental savings, there is fresher air inside and out. I am sure the ride is considerably smoother than the norm as well.
Harris, a former professional tennis player, has been a driver for 21 years. He expects to save several hundred pounds a month in overall running costs versus his old diesel cab.
