This show has been flagged as Clean by the host. -------------------- 01 Introduction This is the second follow up to my 8 part series on nuclear power. In this episode I will attempt to answer a question posed by brian in ohio in a comment on HPR4583. In that comment he said: 02 -------------------- Loving this series. Maybe Whiskey Jack could give some cost comparisons between large and small reactors. He could also give us a realistic look at nuclear plant safety/accidents compared to conventional power production. Looking forward to the episode on FORTH generation reactors ;-) -------------------- 03 End of quote. The first question I answered in my previous follow up, which was HPR4628. In this episode I will attempt to answer the second question, which was about the safety of nuclear power compared to other sources of electrical power generation. One of the HPR janitors encouraged me to make this episode, so I think we can thank him for getting another HPR episode made. 04 Defining the Scope First, let's define the scope of the question. This will cover electrical power generation only. Within that scope I will consider only the following sources of energy. 05 Coal Oil Natural Gas Hydroelectric Nuclear Wind Solar I won't cover geothermal, wave, or tidal power as these are only used in very small amounts and so there simply isn't enough literature on them to base a discussion on . 06 Foreshadow Conclusion I should mention right away that I cannot provide absolute answers to this question in the form of a nice, neat ranking table based on numbers from peer reviewed scientific sources. The reasons for this will become apparent, but to put it briefly, the data on which to base such a ranking simply doesn't exist. I will however provide context within which people can think about the issue. Wherever possible, I will provide links to the references that I used in the show notes so you can read further on this yourself. -------------------- 07 Energy Catastrophism versus Energy Uniformitarianism First though I need to go off on a slight geological detour in order to explain an important analogy that I will use. 08 In the 19th century there was a great debate among geologists over what is known as catastrophism versus uniformitarianism. In seeking to explain the origins of the earth and of the landscape that we see around us, there were two points of view. 09 One was "catastrophism". This is the belief that the mountains, valleys, and plains that we see around us were formed as a result of great catastrophes which occurred relatively recently in earth's history. This explanation was necessary in order to fit geological features into an earth that was believed to be only a few thousands of years old. This view was heavily influenced by religious belief. In this view Noah's flood was the great catastrophe and the fossils of dinosaurs were the remains of animals who had not been saved on the ark and so had died in the flood. 10 The other point of view was uniformitarianism. This was the hypothesis that the landscape we see around us can be explained by the very slow accumulation of very small changes over very long periods of time. For this to be true however, the earth had to be far older than the few thousand years that a literal reading of the bible would suggest. The earth in fact had to be many, many, millions of years old. 11 Eventually, the uniformitarian view won out and people understood that while some catastrophes can take place, the shape of the landscape is overwhelmingly due to small changes over very long periods of time. 12 How is this Relevant to this Episode You Ask? How this is relevant is that I will use this analogy to explain how we need to think about energy and safety. Very small numbers of deaths and injuries multiplied over many occurrences can add up to big numbers, comparable in scale or possibly even larger than a single catastrophe or even several of them. 13 I don't know if anyone else has used this analogy before, I have just thought of this when writing the script for this podcast. None the less, I think it is a very useful way of helping to understand the issues. 14 As an example of this, think about the well known case of the safety of flying versus the safety of travelling in your car. Air crashes are catastrophes that make the headlines. Automobile crashes are seldom more than local news at best. You have probably heard many times the claim that if you making a trip somewhere, you are safer to fly than to drive yourself in your car. 15 Example - Hydro versus Solar I will now present an example of this. Hydro electric power has some notable large scale catastrophes associated with it. Roof top solar power does not have any notable catastrophes that I am aware of. However, which is safer? 16 Hydro Catastrophes Here are three examples of hydro electric catastrophes in just one country, Italy. The Vajont Dam which collapsed in1963 An estimated 1,917 to 2,500 people died. The Sella Zerbino dam which collapsed in 1935. More than 100 people died. The Gleno Dam which collapsed in 1923. An estimated 350 people died. https://damfailures.org/ https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4997708/ 17 I haven't tried to compile a global list of the worst hydro electric dam collapses, as this sort of information is actually very difficult to find, even on web sites dedicated to dam failures. An additional problem is that information on whether a dam was used for electric power generation or not is often not available. 18 Dam failures where contradictory or insufficient information is available on whether there was an associated hydro power plant include the 1975 Banqian Dam failure, where death estimates range up to a quarter of a million. 19 Solar Panel Slow Accumulation Contrast this with roof top solar panels. Many small accidents can add up to big numbers as well. 20 Health and safety literature discussing solar panel safety mention things such as Falls from roofs. Electric shock. Arc flash (burns from electrical arcing). Normal electrical safety procedures which are based around locking out sources of energy do not work with solar panels which makes safety more difficult. Heat stress due to working exposed in the hot sun. Warning from US government on falls by solar panel installers. https://stacks.cdc.gov/view/cdc/228946 https://www.osha.gov/green-jobs/solar 21 Why We Cannot Compare the Two Hydro catastrophes are not well documented, but we can at least find records of some of the most notable ones. However, even those have very large variations in estimates of deaths. 22 Roof top solar deaths however are largely undocumented. The industry is largely unregulated. There is no central authority which accumulates many individual deaths or injuries. At best there are worker and public safety bodies who simply accumulate those statistics into general construction or household injuries. 23 Thus we have no reliable means of comparing the two energy sources on a comparable basis. We face the same problem with all other major electrical energy sources. So far as I am aware, there are no peer reviewed scientific studies which compare the relative safety of all of the major electrical energy sources we are considering here based on actual numbers. -------------------- 24 Safety Risks I will now try to list some the major hazards for each of energy sources we are considering. There is however limited data available. In many cases we just have reference to worker safety organizations as to what the hazards are. I will not attempt here to put numbers to these here. Categories 25 Coal, Oil, Natural Gas The hazards are Air pollution Mining and oil field accidents Pipeline explosions Transportation accidents. These- move a lot of material so these are significant. 26 Hydroelectric These include Dam collapse Drowning 27 Nuclear These include Radiation exposure 28 Wind These include Falls Confined space deaths (there is not much detail on this) Electric shock Ice throws (that is, throwing pieces of ice off the blades) This technology has a significant problem with people working alone which greatly increases risks associated with other dangers. 29 Solar These include Falls Electric shock Arc flash Heat stress 30 I have not tried to cover all possible risks associated with each category, just the ones which each industry considers to be the risks they concern themselves with. There does not exist any means by which risks of similar types are compared across different industries. 31 Reliability of Supply is Also Safety In a completely electrified net zero society, reliability of supply is a safety matter. People will die in very large numbers in cold climates if they do not have heat. If we have no fossil fuels, we need to also consider how reliably does a grid based on any of the options work. I have not seen anyone attempt to address this question and will not attempt to address it here. However, it must be addressed in any comprehensive attempt to rank safety. -------------------- 32 Studies or Articles on Estimates of Relative Safety Despite the difficulties of comparing the safety of different sources of energy, some people have attempted this anyway. Different estimates done at different times had different focuses, so unfortunately we do not have a nice set of studies that we can neatly use to cross check one another. I will however list the names and the authors and summarize the results. -------------------- 33 The Health Hazards of Not Going Nuclear By Dr. Petr Beckman Published in 1976 The author of this book tried to address the relative safety of different sources of energy in the mid 1970s. However, it is old at this point, so I won't bother digging through its pages to find his figures. 34 He mainly focused on comparing electric power generated with coal to nuclear. His conclusion was that if the goal was to prevent deaths or ill health in the process of generating electricity, then the logical conclusion was to replace coal fired power plants with nuclear. 35 The book was relatively well known at the time, as least as far as books on energy are concerned, so I thought it was still worth mentioning. I happen to have a copy of this book which I bought back in that time period It was the 8th printing of the book, so it would appear to have had relatively good sales. 36 The author did address the issue of what I have termed "catastrophism" in his comparison of different energy sources, although I don't know if he used this phrase. I don't know if he was the first to use this sort of analysis, but he certainly was very influential in terms of popularizing it. -------------------- 37 Risk of Energy Production by Herbert Inhaber Publication AECB 1119 March 1978 This study is a scientific paper from the same time period as the book "The Health Hazards of Not Going Nuclear". 38 He based his risk estimates largely on estimates of the amount of material which was used in the construction and operation of various power sources. While we could argue over whether or not this is a valid methodology, I think any such argument would be pointless as I think the age of the study alone renders it not relevant today anyway. Advancements in materials have changed the basis results significantly by now. However, as it exists I thought I would mention it to show that the idea of comparing energy sources to each other is not a new one. The author compared a wider variety of potential sources than Beckman did. 39 Here's his conclusions. He assumes equal amounts of energy produced by each method. The numbers are normalized such that the total sums to 100%. You can think of it in terms of what proportion of total deaths or injuries would result from each source if each were equally used. 40 Coal 27.5% Oil 25.6% Methanol 16.7% Wind 10.8% Solar photovoltaic 9.2% Thermal 8.1% Solar space heating 1.5% Ocean thermal 0.4% Nuclear 0.13% Natural Gas 0.08% 41 His natural gas estimate is drastically different from that of other authors. I am not going to worry about explaining it however, as the study is as I said old enough to be not very relevant anyway. I am mainly including this here out of historical interest. 42 As a footnote, the methanol he refers to would be synthesized from wood. This was a popular idea in that era as a means of providing liquid fuels for transportation. Practical battery electric cars in those days were strictly science fiction. 43 The ocean thermal category is a real blast from the past and I had forgotten all about that concept. It was a very popular idea at that time and was supposed to be *the* big and upcoming thing in renewable energy. It involved various means of attempting to extract energy from differences in water temperature at different depths in the ocean. It gradually faded away however, as despite great efforts being put into it, designs never proved to be practical. -------------------- 44 Electricity generation and health Anil Markandya, Paul Wilkinson Published in the Lancet, Vol 370, 15 September 2007 45 This is more recent than the previous one, although it is nearly 20 years old at this point. Unfortunately it doesn't cover wind or solar, just fossil fuels and nuclear. However it is still useful, and the Lancet is a very reputable peer reviewed journal. 46 I will present just the results rather than discussing the whole paper. The authors break it down into deaths among the public, occupational deaths, and air pollution related deaths, serious illness, and minor illness. 47 They break the energy sources down into lignite, coal, gas, oil, biomass, and nuclear. Lignite is a type of very low grade coal used mainly for electric power generation. In this paper biomass refers to energy crops and forest residues. 48 I will summarize the results by category rather than trying to describe a table that has 6 rows and 5 columns. All numbers are normalized in terms of deaths or cases per TWh. 49 Occupational deaths from accidents lignite 0.1 coal 0.1 gas 0.001 oil no data biomass - no data Nuclear is 0.019. 50 Deaths among the public from accidents lignite 0.02 coal 0.02 gas 0.02 oil 0.03 biomass no data Nuclear 0.003 51 Air pollution deaths lignite 32.6 coal 24.5 gas 2.8 oil 18.4 biomass 4.63 Nuclear 0.052 52 Air pollution serious illnesses lignite 298 coal 225 gas 30 oil 161 biomass 43 Nuclear 0.22 53 Air pollution minor illnesses lignite 17,676 coal 13,288 gas 703 oil 9,551 biomass 2,276 Nuclear no data 54 Natural gas edges out nuclear power slightly in terms of occupational safety, but in every other category nuclear is drastically lower in terms of ill effects than any of the alternatives. -------------------- 55 2020 Fatalities for US Roofers Increased 15% as Solar Roof Installations Increase Published in The Next Big Future July 6, 2021 by Brian Wang 56 This seems to be written by someone who has a popular science blog. I'm not familiar with it personally, but he addresses the subject so I'll list it. The title implies that it's all about rooftop solar, but he provides comparative numbers for the other energy sources of interest, so that is useful for our purposes. However, he doesn't describe his methodology, so we need to treat them with some caution. Here are his results These are deaths per thousand terawatt hours. 57 Coal - 100,000 Oil - 36,000 Natural gas - 4,000 Hydro - 1,400 Rooftop solar - 440 Wind - 150 Nuclear - 90 58 If we plot these numbers on a bar chart, coal and oil are so large that all of the others are squished to the bottom of the chart and are difficult to see at all. Let's therefore look at these in terms of orders of magnitude. Keep in mind that this is a logarithmic scale. This means that the difference between 4 and 5 is much greater in linear terms than the difference between 1 and 2. 59 Coal - 5 Oil - 4 Natural gas - 3 Hydro - 3 Rooftop solar - 2 Wind - 2 Nuclear - 1 60 Each of these numbers represents an order of magnitude, that is a power of ten. We can see that with rooftop solar, wind, and nuclear, the numbers are so close and the uncertainties are so great and their relative values so small compared to say coal that they can be seen as equivalent so far as safety is concerned. -------------------- 61 What are the safest and cleanest sources of energy? by Hannah Ritchie Published in Our World in Data First published in 2017, updated in 2022 and 2024 62 The author of this study addressed both deaths and greenhouse gas emissions. Deaths from accidents and air pollution are normalized to per TWh of electricity, while greenhouse gas emissions are normalized to GWh of electricity over the life cycle of the plant. 63 Here are the death figures. Coal 24.6 Oil 18.4 Biomass 4.6 Natural Gas 2.8 Hydro power 1.3 Wind 0.04 Nuclear 0.03 Solar 0.02 64 For greenhouse gas emissions the figures are Coal 970 tons Oil 720 tons Natural gas 440 tons Biomass 78 to 230 tons Solar 53 tons Hydro power 24 tons Wind 11 tons Nuclear 6 tons 65 If we take the death figures and rank them by order of magnitude as we did with the previous article, we get the following. 66 Coal - 4 Oil - 4 Biomass - 3 Natural Gas - 3 Hydro power - 3 Wind - 1 Nuclear - 1 Solar - 1 67 Keep in mind that the previous article covered only rooftop solar and not large industrial installations, and so is not directly comparable. Also the units are different, with the previous article being in terms of thousand TWh, and this one being in TWh. If we exclude solar (as the numbers are not comparable), Brian Wang's numbers are between 1.5 to 4 times higher than Ritchie's, except for hydro which are almost identical. I think this latter is due to both sets of numbers are dominated by one exceptionally big hydro accident. 68 Overall however, the relative rankings are quite comparable. Ritchie's numbers for deaths from coal, oil, and natural gas appear to be directly from the study by Markandya and Wilkinson mentioned above. For the benefit of those who are wondering, Ritchie specifically states that her numbers for nuclear include the Chernobyl and Fukushima accidents. -------------------- https://www.iaea.org/publications/magazines/bulletin/21-1/solar-power-more-dangerous-nuclear Direct link to file https://www.iaea.org/sites/default/files/publications/magazines/bulletin/bull21-1/21104091117.pdf https://ourworldindata.org/safest-sources-of-energy https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(07)61253-7/abstract https://www.nextbigfuture.com/2021/07/2020-fatalities-for-us-roofers-increased-15-as-solar-roof-installations-increase.html -------------------- 69 Conclusion from Studies Remember that in engineering terms, when comparing groups of numbers which contain both both very small numbers and one or more very large numbers, the differences between the small numbers are often not significant. The differences between the small numbers may be the product of our ability to measure these things rather than any real differences. 70 For example, in the article by Ritchie wind power would appear to be twice as dangerous as nuclear. However, the difference between them is 0.02 compared to 24.6 for coal. In other words, the difference between apparently "dangerous" wind and apparently "safe" nuclear is equivalent to 0.08% of the total for coal. It's therefore meaningless and a red herring to even worry about. 71 With the above taken into consideration, generally the different sources of energy fall into two broad categories in terms of number of deaths, injuries, and illnesses. The fossil fuels and biomass fall into one group and wind, solar, and nuclear into another group. 72 Hydro power would seem to fall into the higher risk category or at least somewhere between the two, but this I suspect is mainly due to one exceptionally large dam collapse in China, the Banqian Dam failure in 1975. This is mentioned as being specifically included in the article written by Ritchie. This was a multi-purpose dam, and information on this dam is difficult to find. It is not clear to me whether it had a hydro electric generator associated with either it or another dam that was part of the same system. 73 Some people therefor may argue for its exclusion from the numbers. Of course some people may argue for its inclusion anyway, as it was a dam regardless of whether it actually had an electric generator attached. If we exclude it, then I think the numbers for hydro power would fall into the same range as for nuclear, wind, and solar. 74 Most people would consider hydro power to be safe and clean enough regardless of this and I will rank it as such in any conclusions that I come to. As you can see, even if we have numbers, it can be a matter of opinion as to how to interpret them. -------------------- -------------------- 75 Taking a Systems Approach Now let's take a look at the broader energy picture today and into the future. Many countries in many parts of the world have committed to the concept of "Net Zero", which means eliminating carbon emissions on a net basis. Net zero essentially means the complete electrification of society. We must therefore have electrical energy on demand and at low cost. We must as a result of this look at complete electrical systems rather than individual sources in isolation. 76 At one time many electrical systems were entirely coal or entirely hydroelectric. This is no longer the case. There are now major amounts of wind and solar involved in many countries. However these are inherently intermittent. This means that other sources of energy are inherently also required to have a functional system. 77 If any particular solution inherently requires fossil fuels to meet part of the demand, then the safety, pollution, and climate issues relating to those fossil fuels have to be factored in to that complete system when trying to come up with a relative ranking. Talking about Individual sources in isolation are therefore meaningless in these countries. 78 There are battery systems, but these are mainly used to stabilize and regulate the grid plus to a lesser degree to smooth out short term daily peaks in demand. They do not have the ability to store large amounts of electricity on a large scale for an entire grid for days, weeks, and months to make up for intermittency. 79 So a serious attempt to rank sources of energy would need to look at a variety of representative countries and for each one come up with a plan that involves 'x' megawatts from source 'a', 'y' megawatts from source 'b', etc., and total up the values for each. 80 I am not aware of anyone who has studied this larger issue. However, the problem has to be addressed from this perspective in order for any answer to be useful. Not taking this into account is like ordering a diet soft drink to go with with a high calorie meal and assuring yourself that your plans to diet are fine. 81 This is not to imply there is anything inherently wrong with wind or solar. It does mean that if your goal is to achieve both net zero and a clean environment, you have to look at your entire energy system as a complete system rather than focusing on what you feel are the most reassuring parts of it while ignoring the rest. This does however add to the argument that it is in fact inherently very difficult to come up with a system of ranking energy sources for safety. -------------------- 82 Nuclear, Climate, and Clean Air - Contrasting Examples To give a tangible example we will now look at two different places that followed two divergent paths at roughly around the same time frame. These are the province of Ontario in Canada, and Germany. 83 Ontario had a mix of coal, hydro electric, and nuclear generating plants. Germany had a mix of coal, nuclear and natural gas plants. Ontario shut down their coal fired plants and kept their nuclear plants. Germany however shut down their nuclear plants and kept their coal fired plants. 84 The Phase Out of Coal in Ontario In 2003 Ontario decided to close all of its coal fired generating plants, which consisted of 19 units (that is boilers and turbines) totalling 8,800 MW. This phase out was completed by 2014. 85 Here are the figures for amount of power generated by each energy source in 2003 and 2014. Nuclear went from 42% to 60% Hydro went from 23% to 24% Gas went from 11% to 9% Coal went from 25% to 0% Non-hydro renewable went from 0% to 7%. 86 As you can see, the bulk of that replacement came from increased use of nuclear power. Furthermore, this did not result in simply replacing coal with natural gas. While gas is cleaner than coal, it still has emissions and if you recall from the studies that we looked at earlier, had an estimated death rate roughly 2 orders of magnitude greater than nuclear, solar, or wind. 87 To put this in more practical terms, at one time Toronto regularly had clouds of smog obscuring it, to a large extent due to these coal fired power plants With the phase out of coal, smog days went to zero in 2015 compared to 53 a decade earlier. The 2023 figures for Ontario show carbon emissions of 53 grams per kWh of electricity generated. We can use this as a rough benchmark comparison for total emissions. 88 The Phase out of Nuclear in Germany Until March of 2011, Germany generated one quarter of its electrical power from nuclear. Starting in 2011 however, they began shutting down their nuclear power plants. These were then phased out over the next decade. However, the coal plants were to be kept to 2038. In 2026 Germany began talking about increasing use of coal in order to save gas. In the same year the German chancellor Friedrich Merz stated that the phase out of nuclear was a quote “serious strategic mistake”. EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said it was "a strategic mistake for Europe to turn its back on a reliable, affordable source of low-emissions power". 89 I won't go into the details of the phase out, but let's look at some emissions numbers for Germany. If we look at the official numbers from the European Environmental Agency for 2024, for Germany their emissions were 298 grams per kWh of electricity generated. Recall that we are using emissions as a very rough guide to amount of air pollution, and that this has a direct effect on the safety of the overall electrical energy system. 90 So, who actually made their people safer, Ontario who phased out their coal plants and kept their nuclear plants, or Germany who phased out their nuclear plants and kept their coal plants? 91 If you want a comparison directly within Europe, then Germany has one of the highest rates of emissions per kWh of electricity generated, whereas France, who use mainly nuclear power, have one of the lowest at 43 grams per kWh of electricity generated. Again, who is making their people safer, Germany or France? 92 I don't want to make it sound like I am picking on Germany. I am also not going to tell them how they ought to run their country. However they provide a good real world example of how we need to look at things in overall context when we are thinking about the choices that we make. https://www.ontario.ca/page/end-coal https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/windsor/smog-study-shows-significant-decreases-in-pollutants-in-ontario-1.4151183 https://www.eea.europa.eu/en/analysis/indicators/greenhouse-gas-emission-intensity-of-1 https://world-nuclear.org/information-library/country-profiles/countries-g-n/germany https://www.politico.eu/article/friedrich-merz-is-right-to-reject-germanys-nuclear-phase-out-says-iea-chief-fatih-birol/ https://www.politico.eu/article/germany-considers-ramping-up-coal-power-to-avert-energy-crisis/ https://www.iea.org/countries/estonia/electricity https://www.iea.org/countries/malta/electricity -------------------- 93 Conclusions As we can see, there don't appear to be an abundance of peer reviewed scientific studies that we can simply point to in order to answer the question of safety of all possible major different energy sources once and for all. Collecting the data to even attempt to answer the question is inherently very difficult as we cannot readily conduct experiments to answer the question, and sources of data are not collected or consolidated in a manner which can answer this question adequately. 94 The essence of the problem is that most energy industries are not as tightly regulated and monitored to the same degree that say nuclear power or commercial airliners are, so this data is simply not being systematically recorded. However, a number of people have attempted to make estimates. 95 Their conclusions would seem to be that nuclear, wind, and solar are roughly equivalent in terms of safety. All fossil fuels are much less safe than nuclear, wind, and solar, by as much as several orders of magnitude. 96 We can however say with a reasonable degree of certainty that if a country shut down their nuclear power plants and kept their fossil fuel plants, particularly coal, then they probably made their people less safe than if they had done things the other way around. 97 I hope that I have provided some context in which to think about the issue. Thanks again to brian in ohio for providing the question upon which this episode is based. -------------------- Provide feedback on this episode.

What should happen to drivers who kill or injure someone with their car? Does a focus on punishment for "reckless" or "dangerous" drivers let everyone else off the hook and never force them to look at the larger harms of a transportation system based around personal car ownership? Those are the questions asked by Ian Loader, a professor of criminology at the University of Oxford, who argues that the law's focus on "motonormative punishment" is just another way of masking the larger problems caused by a car-dominant society. In a new study, Professor Loader proposes a vastly different way of thinking about criminal punishment organized around five harm reduction principles. Plus, is it really wrong for news outlets to write headlines like "Pedestrian Hit By Car," or is there more to it than advocates are willing to admit?  ***Join The War on Cars on Patreon and listen to exclusive ad-free versions of regular episodes, Patreon-only bonus content, Discord access, invitations to live events, merch discounts and free stickers!*** SHOW NOTES: Read Professor Ian Loader's study, "Beyond Motonormative Punishment: On Road Safety as Environmental Regulation."

Les acteurs du secteur automobile menacent de manifester et de porter plainte contre les mesures budgétaires by TOPFM MAURITIUS

Les coûts des assurances de dommages ont bondi de 4 % au premier trimestre de 2026. En cause: la multiplication des événements météo extrêmes pour l'habitation et l'explosion du coût des réparations automobiles, qui a doublé en dix ans. Face à ces hausses, le chroniqueur économique Alexandre Leblond invite à la prudence face aux options les moins chères, souvent synonymes de protections insuffisantes. Il met plutôt en lumière une nouveauté intrigante sur le marché canadien: une assurance voyage « pluie » de la Croix Bleue, bien que celle-ci comporte d'importantes subtilités contractuelles.

Alors qu'elle ne devait être produite qu'en 100% électrique, la Fiat 500 bénéficie de la volte-face de Stellantis et signe finalement son retour à l'hybride en récupérant le bloc 1.0 litre essence de 65 chevaux en hybridation 12 volts, associé à une boîte 6 vitesses. Un retour en arrière sur le plan de la conduite qui doit permettre de relancer les ventes de ce modèle italien iconique.

F1 had another entertaining race, which the guys break down. Plus, a penalty was overturned from Monaco, proving Hinch's predictions correct. On the IndyCar side, Rossi tested at Road America, as the teams prepare to race there, and IndyCar officiating released its post-race report. +++ Off Track is part of the SiriusXM Sports Podcast Network.

L'économie verte mondiale vient de franchir un seuil symbolique : plus de 10 000 milliards de dollars de capitalisation boursière. Un record qui témoigne de la montée en puissance des activités liées à la transition énergétique et qui montre que l'écologie est désormais aussi un puissant moteur de croissance économique, de compétitivité et de souveraineté industrielle. L'économie verte mondiale, c'est-à-dire l'ensemble des entreprises cotées dont l'activité repose sur des solutions environnementales, dépasse désormais les 10 000 milliards de dollars de capitalisation boursière. C'est plus de trois fois le PIB de la France et l'équivalent de la valeur cumulée des grandes entreprises européennes. Ce record illustre une réalité de plus en plus évidente : la transition écologique devient progressivement un immense moteur économique. Mais lorsqu'on parle d'économie verte, il ne s'agit pas uniquement des panneaux solaires ou des éoliennes. Le sujet est beaucoup plus large. On y retrouve bien sûr les énergies renouvelables, mais aussi les batteries, les véhicules électriques, le recyclage, la gestion des déchets, le traitement de l'eau ou encore l'efficacité énergétique des bâtiments. Autant de secteurs qui occupent désormais une place importante dans l'économie mondiale. Pourquoi l'économie verte continue de progresser malgré les crises Le cap des 10 000 milliards de dollars constitue un record absolu. Et ce qui frappe, c'est le contexte dans lequel cette progression intervient. Depuis deux ans, les tensions géopolitiques se multiplient. Les guerres commerciales s'intensifient. Les États-Unis ont ralenti certaines politiques climatiques et plusieurs gouvernements européens font face à des contraintes budgétaires qui limitent leurs aides publiques. Pourtant, malgré ces vents contraires, les revenus de l'économie verte continuent d'augmenter rapidement. La raison est simple. La transition énergétique n'est plus seulement une affaire d'environnement. Elle est devenue une question de compétitivité économique et de souveraineté industrielle. Depuis la guerre en Ukraine, l'Europe a pris conscience de sa dépendance énergétique. Produire davantage d'électricité renouvelable ou nucléaire ne répond plus seulement à un objectif climatique; c'est aussi une manière de réduire la dépendance aux importations de gaz. Les investissements dans les technologies vertes répondent donc désormais à des enjeux autant stratégiques qu'écologiques. Le « vert » devient progressivement un enjeu de puissance économique. Des technologies plus rentables et des besoins énergétiques en forte hausse Cette dynamique s'explique également par les progrès technologiques réalisés au cours des deux dernières décennies. En vingt ans, le coût des panneaux solaires a été divisé par près de dix et celui des batteries a lui aussi fortement reculé. Résultat, produire de l'électricité renouvelable est devenu, dans de nombreuses régions du monde, particulièrement compétitif. Les entreprises se montrent avant tout pragmatiques. Elles investissent parce que ces technologies sont rentables et non plus uniquement parce qu'elles bénéficient de subventions ou d'un soutien des pouvoirs publics. Autre moteur de croissance : l'explosion des besoins en électricité. Avec le développement de l'intelligence artificielle, des centres de données, des véhicules électriques ou encore des pompes à chaleur, la demande mondiale d'électricité augmente rapidement. Il faut donc renforcer les capacités de production d'énergie propre et développer des systèmes de stockage toujours plus performants. Cela représente des milliers de milliards de dollars d'investissements au cours des prochaines années et autant d'opportunités pour les entreprises de l'économie verte. On comprend ainsi pourquoi les investisseurs s'intéressent de plus en plus à ce secteur. Les marchés considèrent que ces entreprises bénéficient désormais d'une croissance solide, portée par des besoins qui devraient durer plusieurs décennies. Rappelons toutefois une chose importante : franchir le seuil des 10 000 milliards de dollars ne signifie pas que l'économie mondiale est devenue entièrement verte. Le pétrole, le gaz et le charbon représentent encore une part majeure de l'énergie consommée dans le monde. La transition est engagée, mais elle est loin d'être achevée. En revanche, ce chiffre possède une portée symbolique très forte. Il montre que les technologies vertes ne constituent plus un marché de niche réservé à quelques investisseurs spécialisés, mais qu'elles deviennent progressivement l'un des nouveaux piliers de la croissance mondiale.

À l'occasion de la dixième édition de VivaTech, la France affiche plus que jamais son ambition technologique. Derrière le salon dédié aux start-up et à l'innovation se dessine une transformation beaucoup plus profonde : celle d'un modèle économique où industrie et technologies de pointe deviennent désormais indissociables. Pendant près de quarante ans, le récit économique français a été celui du déclin industriel. Les chiffres illustrent cette évolution. En 1960, l'industrie représentait près de 28% du produit intérieur brut français, soit pratiquement un tiers de l'économie. En 2025, elle ne représente plus qu'environ 13,5% du PIB. Cette évolution semblait opposer deux univers : celui des usines et celui des services numériques incarnés par la Silicon Valley. La France apparaissait alors en retard sur les deux tableaux, moins industrielle que l'Allemagne et moins technologique que les États-Unis. Mais cette opposition est aujourd'hui largement dépassée. L'économie mondiale est entrée dans une nouvelle phase où la création de valeur repose désormais sur les technologies avancées : intelligence artificielle, semi-conducteurs, cybersécurité, biotechnologies ou encore robotique. Autrement dit, la technologie est devenue une industrie à part entière. À lire aussiEn France, les investissements étrangers de recherche et développement en chute libre La stratégie française : produire les technologies de demain C'est précisément sur ce terrain que la France tente aujourd'hui de se repositionner. L'objectif est clair : produire sur son territoire les technologies jugées stratégiques et retrouver une forme de souveraineté industrielle. Depuis 2017, plus de 130 000 emplois industriels ont ainsi été recréés et les ouvertures d'usines ont de nouveau dépassé les fermetures pendant plusieurs années. Cette stratégie se traduit par des investissements massifs dans les batteries électriques, l'hydrogène, le nucléaire, le spatial ou encore l'intelligence artificielle. Le gouvernement vient d'ailleurs d'annoncer un investissement supplémentaire de 655 millions d'euros afin d'accélérer le développement de ces filières d'avenir. La réindustrialisation française passe désormais par les technologies de pointe. À lire aussiGigafactories en France: où en est vraiment la bataille industrielle des batteries électriques? VivaTech, symbole de la nouvelle industrie française Créé en 2016, VivaTech était avant tout le salon des start-up et des applications numériques. Dix ans plus tard, il est devenu la vitrine de la nouvelle stratégie économique française. Les industriels y côtoient les spécialistes de l'intelligence artificielle, les laboratoires de recherche, les acteurs de la défense et du spatial, mais aussi les écoles d'ingénieurs et d'informatique venues présenter les compétences qui façonneront l'économie de demain. La frontière entre industrie et technologie s'efface progressivement. Les entreprises automobiles deviennent des entreprises de logiciels, les groupes énergétiques investissent massivement dans l'intelligence artificielle et les laboratoires pharmaceutiques exploitent de plus en plus les données pour accélérer leurs recherches. Toutes les industries deviennent technologiques. Cette dynamique se traduit également par l'émergence d'un écosystème français de l'innovation, illustré par la multiplication des licornes et par des acteurs comme Mistral AI. En réalité, la France ne cherche plus seulement à réindustrialiser son économie. Elle ambitionne de construire une industrie nouvelle, où les logiciels, les données et l'intelligence artificielle deviennent aussi essentiels que les machines ou les chaînes de production. Les hauts-fourneaux laissent progressivement place aux gigafactories de batteries, aux usines de semi-conducteurs et aux immenses centres de données qui alimenteront les technologies de demain. La question n'est donc plus de savoir si la France passe d'une économie industrielle à une économie technologique. Elle demeure une grande nation industrielle, mais son industrie change de visage. L'enjeu est désormais de devenir une véritable puissance techno-industrielle, capable de maîtriser les technologies qui feront la croissance, la compétitivité et la souveraineté économique des prochaines décennies.

What do an arrow through the head, a white suit, a banjo, and two wild and crazy guys have in common? Steve Martin. In this episode of the GenX Book Club, Paul Stroessner, Suzanne Mattaboni, and Del Roehling take a nostalgic look back at Steve Martin's memoir Born Standing Up, a fascinating behind-the-scenes story of one of comedy's most innovative performers. The conversation explores Martin's journey from working in the magic shops of Disneyland to becoming one of the biggest stand-up comedians in America. Along the way, we discuss the discipline, persistence, and creativity that fueled his rise, as well as the personal struggles that shaped him. We also revisit some of Steve Martin's most iconic moments, including:

What does it take to make a street safer for everyone? In the US, it typically requires a combination of tragedy, grassroots organizing, and political leadership. Even when these ingredients come together, success is never guaranteed, as so many projects become battles about more than just bike lanes. Changing Lanes, a new documentary from director Ben Wolf, covers the fight to make McGuinness Boulevard in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, safer following the tragic death of a beloved teacher at the hands of a hit-and-run driver. Featuring interviews with such notable figures as Janette Sadik-Khan and former Talking Heads frontman David Byrne, Changing Lanes moves beyond bike lanes to tell a story that's very much made for this political and cultural moment. Wolf joins us along with advocates Bronwyn Breitner and Kevin LaCherra, as well as New York State Assemblymember Emily Gallagher, to talk about how they fought to make McGuinness safe and the broader lessons they learned along the way. ***Join The War on Cars on Patreon and listen to ad-free versions of regular episodes, Patreon-only bonus content,  invitations to live events, merch discounts and free stickers!*** SHOW NOTES: Stream Changing Lanes on Amazon or Kanopy.

The AI Reality Gap is becoming one of the most important concepts for developers, founders, and business leaders to understand. Every day, social media is filled with examples of applications being built in minutes, products launched overnight, and entire workflows automated through AI tools. What rarely gets discussed is what happens after the demo. A working prototype is not the same thing as a production-ready system. The moment an application encounters real users, security requirements, scaling concerns, integrations, and operational demands, the true complexity begins to emerge. Building something is easier than operating it reliably. About Jason Sherman Jason Sherman is a serial entrepreneur, filmmaker, author, and technology founder best known for building practical solutions that bridge the gap between emerging technology and real-world business problems. He is the founder and CEO of Vengo AI and has launched multiple technology platforms throughout his entrepreneurial career. Jason is known for his direct, hands-on approach to innovation, focusing on execution, product development, AI implementation, and helping businesses leverage technology without losing sight of operational realities. His perspective combines startup experience, software development expertise, product strategy, and a strong belief that technology should solve actual business problems rather than chase trends. Links: Facebook, Twitter / X, YouTube, LinkedIn, Website Understanding the AI Reality Gap The AI Reality Gap exists between what AI can generate and what organizations actually need. A generated application may look complete on the surface. It can create forms, databases, dashboards, and workflows. Yet underneath that polished interface are questions that AI alone cannot currently solve consistently: Is the infrastructure secure? Are APIs protected? Is data handled correctly? Can the system scale under load? Is deployment repeatable and reliable? These questions have always existed in software development. AI simply exposes them faster. Why AI Is Revealing Existing Problems Many organizations assume AI is creating new challenges. In reality, AI is exposing old ones. Businesses have always struggled with: Poor documentation Weak processes Inconsistent requirements Fragile infrastructure Knowledge silos AI accelerates development so rapidly that these weaknesses appear sooner than before. Faster development magnifies existing organizational problems. AI Is a Tool, Not Magic One of the strongest themes from the discussion was viewing AI as a tool rather than a replacement for expertise. Electricity transformed industries. Automobiles transformed transportation. The internet transformed communication. AI belongs in the same category. The value comes from how people use the technology, not from the technology itself. Organizations that treat AI as a productivity tool tend to achieve better results than organizations expecting autonomous solutions. The Human Responsibility Layer The excitement around AI often creates the impression that human oversight is becoming less important. The opposite may be true. As AI handles more implementation work, humans become increasingly responsible for: Architecture Governance Validation Security Business alignment The challenge is shifting from creating code to directing systems. The future developer may spend less time writing code and more time validating outcomes. Building Beyond the Demo Successful AI adoption requires organizations to think beyond proof-of-concept projects. Questions leaders should ask include: How will this be maintained? Who owns the deployment process? How will security be managed? What happens when requirements change? These concerns may seem less exciting than AI-generated applications, but they determine whether a solution survives in production. Conclusion The AI Reality Gap isn't a flaw in AI. It's a reminder that software success has always depended on more than code generation. Organizations that understand infrastructure, security, deployment, and human oversight will benefit most from AI's acceleration. Stay Connected: Join the Developreneur Community

De la pluie de Clermont-Ferrand aux nuits brûlantes des 24 Heures du Mans, Jacky Ickx a construit l'une des plus grandes légendes du sport automobile. Sextuple vainqueur du Mans, pilote Ferrari en Formule 1, champion d'endurance et héros du Dakar, le Belge a toujours défié le destin avec une seule devise : ne jamais abandonner. À travers une remontée mythique en 1977, ce récit retrace la trajectoire hors norme d'un pilote devenu “Monsieur Le Mans”, entre exploits incroyables, drames du sport auto et quête permanente de dépassement de soi.

Jared Yates Sexton and Nick Hauselman break down a week filled with corporate raiding and political theater on this edition of The Weekender. The conversation kicks off with Donald Trump nominating former housing executive Bill Pulte to replace Tulsi Gabbard as Director of National Intelligence. They analyze how this appointment signals a private equity approach to governing, where state power is handed directly to the wealth class while cutting out the middle manager. The guys also take a look at the House of Representatives passing a symbolic War Powers resolution regarding Iran, highlighting the conflicting financial incentives between local used-car barons and federal oligarchs. Finally, they investigate the curious disappearance of Representative Tom Kean Jr. from Capitol Hill before diving into a nostalgic review of Planes, Trains and Automobiles and the unexpected creepiness of rewatching The Wonder Years.

See the USA in your... Toyota? That's what US Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy and his family have done with their reality-style online series, The Great American Road Trip. The way Secretary Duffy explains it, the show is a celebration of the country's 250th birthday. Duffy has told interviewers that "To love America is to see America," so he's packed up the family SUV and hit the road. This being the Trump administration, the trip isn't just an exercise in patriotism but a giant conflict of interest packaged as a reality TV show. That's hardly surprising given Duffy's history with reality TV—Sean Duffy met his wife Rachel Campos-Duffy while shooting MTV's Road Rules in the late 1990s—but it is concerning given that the series is sponsored by nearly a dozen companies that have business before USDOT. Reporter Henry Burke—a senior researcher at the Revolving Door Project—breaks down the many questionable and outright shady details behind Sean Duffy's trip across the country, from the opaque non-profit organizing it to the many transportation-related companies footing the bill. Our bestselling new book, Life After Cars: Freeing Ourselves from the Tyranny of the Automobile, published by Thesis, an imprint of Penguin Random House, is available wherever books are sold. www.thewaroncars.org

Addressing public fear, AI Valley uses historical analogies to argue for moderate regulation to build trust. Gary Rivlincompares AI to the automobile; early cars lacked seatbelts and killed thousands, yet society did not revert to horse-and-buggy travel. Similarly, 19th-century railroads only gained public confidence once government standards ensured safety and reliability. Currently, most Americans remain fearful of AI, making policy debates essential for building long-term trust in the technology. Rivlin also highlights the geopolitical dimension, noting China's goal to dominate AI by 2030. He argues society should focus on immediate dangers, such as autonomous AI in warfare, rather than Hollywood-style scenarios. (4/8)1902 LA

Antonio Reynoso, Claire Valdez, and Julie Won are all running in the June 23 Democratic primary for New York's 7th congressional district. That's the seat that opened up when veteran Democratic politician Nydia Velazquez announced she was retiring. It's a traditionally progressive district, covering neighborhoods in Brooklyn and Queens. This isn't just about New York, though. Federal funding is incredibly important to local transportation, and that money is in danger. But a new generation of candidates across the country is prioritizing the issues that matter to us at The War on Cars.
