Perhaps convert an old lawnmower and power drill to power one’s desktop PC? Simple and perfectly safe/convenient with additional respirator and ear defenders.

Wow 11 years ago. i switched to an electric car recently and still frequently smell exhaust fumes from cars that are running rich or burning motor oil. I might be alive to see the end of internal combustion engines in cities which seems inevitable now.


Living in a urban area I can see the end of the ICE in the next 10-15 years. The game changer in my opinion is the ebike, if we can get just a slight shift in thinking, eg taking the ebike to the gym or store instead of driving an ICE car doesn't stand a chance in the city.
