Could ‘sky trains’ reduce transportation emissions?
Aerolane is using planes to pull other planes through the sky.

With gas prices up and the threat of rationing due to Trump's war, you have to be very dedicated to your love of petroleum to do otherwise.
"Africa imported 44,358 electric vehicles from China in 2025, according to data from China’s Commerce Ministry, up from 19,386 in 2024. The shipments, valued at over $200 million, highlight growing demand, especially in Ethiopia after it banned new imports of gas and diesel-powered vehicles in 2024."

Oh great... so we're going to privatize or sell 'equity' in our airports to private interests so that we can spend the 'proceeds’ on... let me guess... fossil fuel projects.
The more this government digs in, the more it looks like the worst Brian Mulroney Stephen Harper mashup.
@avilewis and the NDP need to be relentlessly loud in their opposition to this and presenting of socially progressive alternatives.

"Now, Milwaukee officials are considering a $3.2 million plan to upgrade bike lanes and make other safety improvements on the high-profile street.
The west side of Second Street, between downtown and West Maple Street, would get a two-way protected bike lane. That would replace the unprotected bike lanes now running on both sides."

oh fun!
To provide “unlimited" range on their BEV buses they’ve created 'charge points' that can be strategically installed on a route. All of the BEV buses come equipped with a pantograph style connector on the roof that can raise up and attach to the charger.
It is 450kW and delivers 1.5-2hrs operating time in 6mins.

Just looking at their brochure for their lineup of new buses.

It just annoys me that the implied basis of this story is that there are no other options than air or road/car.
Even though a railway has gone through Castlegar for over 100 years and there also used to be regular Greyhound bus service up until about 20 years ago.

I wonder how many teenage lives could be saved (along with hundreds if not thousands of dollars in travel costs) if Alberta and Canada had a functioning bus/rail intercity public transport system.
But let's not do that... it might upset some car company lobbyist. Best to put 17 year-olds on icy Alberta highways at night after hockey practice.
