The ICE Age Ends: How Electric Cars Are Shutting Down Gas Stations & Garages
Owning a gasoline-powered car has long meant convenience, and relatively cheap convenience at that. Affordable fuel around every corner, quick oil changes, and easy repairs. As electric vehicle adoption accelerates past critical mass, this convenience will rapidly unravel. Gas stations will close, oil-change shops will disappear, and basic maintenance costs … [continued]

From Niche To Normal: Why The 5–15% EV Window Changes Everything
In the previous article, I explored a combined framework to predict technological tipping points: the diffusion of innovations, logistic growth (s-curve), and complex adaptive systems models. Together, these theories illustrate how technology adoption starts gradually among a small group of users and then accelerates sharply after reaching specific adoption levels. … [continued]

When Cars Go Electric: Understanding The Tipping Points Transforming Transportation
Understanding tipping points in technology adoption requires clarity on how and why technologies spread. To analyze the ongoing shift from internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles to electric vehicles (EVs), it’s valuable to combine three complementary theories: Diffusion of innovations, logistic growth or the s-curve, and complex adaptive systems. Together, these … [continued]

How Ancient Kings & Their False God Screwed Up CleanTech Adoption & Other Climate Efforts Today
Even before 2025, the United States was a bit of a laggard in clean technology adoption (and that’s putting it optimistically). At all levels, cultural obstacles kept getting in the way, and that has only gotten worse. Even with Democratic Party control of the White House, House of Representatives, and … [continued]
