For instance, we may cherry pick statistics supporting our viewpoint and ignore statistics showing we are wrong. We also still need to correctly interpret these statistics.

Are EVs too expensive? Here are 5 common myths, debunked
Every day, more people are ditching gasoline-powered automobiles for plug-in vehicles, with purchases set to rise exponentially in the near future: recent forecasts show the global EV market is expected to reach 320M vehicles by 2040.

The UK has brought plans to ban the sale of new petrol, diesel or hybrid cars forward from 2040 to 2030.

Review: I just can’t get over how good Fender’s Acoustasonic Stratocaster sounds

Review: I just can’t get over how good Fender’s Acoustasonic Stratocaster sounds
My “wow” moment came when I picked up the Acoustasonic Stratocaster for the third time and finally plugged it into an amp. The first couple of times I noodled around with it I’d just played it acoustic. It sounds fantastic and it’s the most comfortable acoustic I’ve ever played. But a hollow-body Stratocaster can only make so much sense until you plug it in. I’m a beginning player. I started learning last year and I’ll be the first to admit that this particular axe is a bit too much guitar for me. I wasn’t sure what to do with the different voices or, if I’m being honest, exactly who this guitar was supposed to be for.

How does your driving speed affect your car’s emissions?

How does your driving speed affect your car’s emissions?
Every car has an optimal speed range that results in minimum fuel consumption, but this range differs between vehicle types, design and age. Typically it looks like this graph below: fuel consumption rises from about 80km/h, partly because air resistance increases. But speed is only one factor. No matter what car you are driving, you can reduce fuel consumption (and therefore emissions) by driving more smoothly. This includes anticipating corners and avoiding sudden braking, taking the foot off the accelerator just before reaching the peak of a hill and cruising over it, and removing roof racks or bull bars and heavier items from inside when they are not needed to make the car lighter and more streamlined.
