EV Greenwashing: Another World’s First

World’s first this, that and now the claim to world’s first Electric motorcycle with built in solar panels and dubbed the “Tesla of motorcycles. By who? When a Green start-up recently wrote the story, our team drove right into the claims of solar helping to charge this little two-wheeler. And we didn’t find much to back the claim to the world’s first title. This is not to deny the company or it’s write-up credit. We’re just looking for facts.And in my case, Greenwashing claims nearly killed me i

After More Than Five decades of Earth Days, What’s Still Missing?

By Betsy Rosenberg This Earth Day marks the 52nd anniversary of the original, held on April 22, 1970, which I’m old enough to remember, though as a schoolgirl. That’s when I had my first eco-epiphany; that the grass I was sitting on at our outdoor assembly was the mother earth! Sounds silly because it’s so obvious but for some reason, it struck me as a profound “aha” moment that made me feel forever connected to nature.But it would be two decades before I would identify as an environmentalist, a
