On this episode of the Fully Charged Show Podcast, Robert welcomes Texan Sharon Wilson. Sharon began her career in the oil & gas industry but is now a leading figure in "methane hunting." As a certified optical gas imaging thermographer, she travels across the U.S., exposing the invisible methane pollution from oil and gas facilities. Sharon uses this technology to educate policymakers, media, and industry leaders through tours. Sharon's dedication to documenting methane emissions and advocating for environmental accountability arose from a personal experience. Unaware of the environmental impact, she purchased 42 acres in Wise County, Texas, bordering the LBJ National Grasslands. Unbeknownst to her, George Mitchell was experimenting with fracking techniques in the area. Witnessing firsthand the devastating effects of fracking, with air turning brown and water turning black, she documented her experience on her blog, texassharon.com. This experience led Sharon and her son to relocate to Denton, Texas, seeking a cleaner environment. However, this move ultimately fueled her passion for environmental advocacy. In 2010, she joined Earthworks' Oil & Gas Accountability Project, making it her life's work. Enjoy Sharon's incredible story!    Check out our YouTube Channels: Everything Electric Show - https://www.youtube.com/@EverythingElectricShow Fully Charged Show - https://www.youtube.com/@fullychargedshow   Why not come and join us at our next Everything Electric expo: https://everythingelectric.show   Support our StopBurningStuff campaign: https://www.patreon.com/STOPBurningStuff   Become a Fully Charged SHOW Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/fullychargedshow   Become a YouTube member: use JOIN button above   Buy the Fully Charged Guide to Electric Vehicles & Clean Energy : https://buff.ly/2GybGt0   Subscribe for episode alerts and the Fully Charged newsletter: https://fullycharged.show/zap-sign-up/   Visit: https://FullyCharged.Show   Find us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/fullychargedshw   Follow us on Instagram: https://instagram.com/fullychargedshow   To partner, exhibit or sponsor at our award-winning expos email: commercial@fullycharged.show    Everything Electric CANADA - Vancouver Convention Centre - 6th, 7th & 8th September 2024 Everything Electric (UK) SOUTH - Farnborough International - 11th, 12th & 13th October 2024 Everything Electric AUSTRALIA - Sydney Showground - 7th, 8th & 9th March 2025  Everything Electric (UK) LONDON - ExCel - 16th, 17th & 18th April 2025 Everything Electric EUROPE, USA & (UK) NORTH - dates for 2025, 2026 & 2027 to be confirmed

In Episode 176 Gary chats with Jack Scarlett from the Fully Charged Show. They discuss Chinese EVs, electric conversions, induction charging, cheaper/ smaller EVs, and whether Tesla is resting on its laurels. I checked the Fully Charged show YouTube channel to see if I could determine how many car reviews Jack's done. He has his own playlist which has 86 videos but - as he said - these are not all car review ones. 21 of them cover topics which are EV related but not strictly car review and in and amongst there are a couple of episodes of almost breaking news where he chats with Robert Llewellyn. So the answer is 65, which isn't bad at all. This season of the podcast is sponsored by Zapmap, the free to download app that helps EV drivers search, plan, and pay for their charging.

This week on Zooming with DRIVEN Dean tells us about his trip to the Fully Charged Show in Sydney to see the new MG4 EV before its release here later this year, but also the new long-range version of the popular MG ZS EV that will be here shortly as well. The Fully Charged Show is a roadshow of electric vehicles that is a spin off of the popular YouTube channel of the same name that was started by actor, writer and broadcaster Robert Llewellyn, better know by cultured and intelligent people as Kryten from the British comedy series Red Dwarf, who was present at the show. David makes us all feel just that bit older with the news that the mighty McLaren P1 is actually ten years old, and that the man who designed the iconic hypercar - Frank Stephenson - has just revealed his latest design - a baby seat! Dean then covers off the news out of the USA about a classic Datsun 240Z selling for some seriously big money, while David tells us about the sexy Hyundai Ioniq 6 arriving in New Zealand and the global reveal of the new Hyundai Kona, as well as the fact that you can now buy a brand new classic Defender from Land Rover, by way of Bowler. But it costs $150,000 and there is only one of them. Confused? Watch the video... Finally Dean fills us in on the last-ever race meeting at the Pukekohe race track, where he will be racing in the DRIVEN Mazda MX-5 in the Mazda race series. We also put out the call for you - yes, you! - to review your car for our upcoming new regular feature: Reader's Reviews. Review your car and let our other readers know the good, the bad and the ugly things about it.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A lighthearted and witty exploration of some of the big questions that come up when trying to 'walk the green line'. Helping us tackle the question: Can you be an environmentalist and still love cars?, is comedian Eshaan Akbar and actor, comedian and presenter Robert Llewellyn. Hosted by Juliet Davenport, climate scientist, renewable pioneer, businesswoman, environmental activist and founder of the UK's first 100% renewable electricity supplier, this podcast invites a panel of comedians and experts to tackle some of the common (and quirky!) questions that pop to mind when trying to live a greener life. Topics covered: - Whether buying a new EV is actually better than running a diesel car into the ground - Whether or not we even need to own cars - The highs and lows of owning and charging an electric vehicle - Cobalt - Is there a risk that by solving one problem with electrifying transport, we are creating another environmental and social problem? - Formula One racing with EVs Great Green Questions is powered by Good Energy and produced by Mags Creative, with curation from Hawkwood Centre for Future Thinking.
