I hope they succeed, but probably will fail with too complex design. Original 2cv is wonderfully simple. If they can keep that simplicity, they will win.

Neoliberalism and right-wing austerity.

Also, earlier Nokia got sniped by Microsoft and profitable wood industries were decimated by transition from paper magazines (high quality, high value add paper) to digital (no paper) --> industry now makes pulp, which is low-value-add.

It is not really forest, but plantation, actively managed and quite low in nature values/diversity. There is a push from EU to conserve the last remaining primary forests in Finland, but it is being opposed by the government and industry.

A big part of that fight is setting up the criteria for primary forests, so I can't easily give you a percentage number of how much of Finland is forest. But not much.

I have also had good experiences with Ruuvi Tags and Ruuvi Air. Sane, open systems, responsive support.

Engine is not the problem, but the battery and volume + weight it brings. Easily +200-400 kg to the weight of the car.

And one scary observation related to this is that warm water will also hold less oxygen for marine life, literally throttling that part of our life-support.

Why? Sorry about my ignorance, but what will happen in about 120 days?
