How many rules and regulations were created, you think, because pilots were not acting in a safe manner? How many lives have been lost because of unsafe or reckless piloting and cheap manufacturing or maintenance?

There's no reason why every house shouldn't have solar panels on the roof.

Just a counter point but do you realize how much rare metal, toxic rare metal, where the mining operations are polluting an insane amount and are worked by children go into those panels?
We have to find a smart way to do it, and not trade one bad thing for another.

We had a saying in the Navy, NATOPS is written in blood.

Why even need licensing? Your new FO watched a couple YouTube videos and has flown Microsoft Flightsim, he should be good.

Medicals, don’t need those. There’s two of us up there, the other can land the plane.

Your mechanic changed oil on Ford Mustangs, should have no problem servicing your hydraulics.

I see you are perfectly fine getting rid of ATP minimums too.

Ok so my 98% comment was obviously hyperbole (borrowed from a popular meme) but the point still stands that most people doing "climate" research are funded by the government and socialist organizations.

And yeah, there indeed have been whistle blowers on the fake data that has been pushed by the climate change alarmists:

No, it became political because the socialists began making it an issue and infiltrated the government and media to push this narrative which helps their agenda.

LFP, the next iteration of battery, does not contain any rare earth metal and is reportedly 100% recyclable.

And once the demand begins to soar, I'm sure there will be an even cheaper, more abundant alternative for those as well

That's peer reviewed??? LOL. Echos of the COVID debates all over again. I just don't get why some people think they know more than the people who are the respected experts in their fields.
