Australia’s Good Car Company has an ambitious, world-first approach to getting more EVs on the road. “The simplest thing was to find used EVs from overseas and bring them over,” said co-founder Broese van Groenou. While importing 500 EVs may be small, demand is skyrocketing along with gasoline prices. Now they are sourcing large volumes of used cars from Japan (right-hand drive, low mileage and good quality), via a bulk purchase arrangements for specific communities. Mike Cannon-Brookes' https://www.boundless.earth/ has invested to help with the risk. Councils and buying groups around Australia are starting to sign up. https://www.climateandcapitalmedia.com/the-little-car-company-that-could/

This looks like a good step to get more EVs in Australia at what are likely to be good prices.

Sustainable Agriculture - a Green Revolution?

Is the global agriculture system on the verge of a new green revolution? If we need to sustainably feed up to 10 billion, despite the ravages of climate, a revolution is required. BloombergNEF has launched a new research stream on this: the transition for Agriculture to become nature positive, carbon neutral and achieve the required volumes.Addressing the overuse of land, water, fertilizers and pesticides is the first priority, then reducing carbon and scaling up. Bloomberg proposes 5 Pillars including sustainable foods, sustainable intensification, green chemicals, carbon-smart farming and restoration and the protection of natural capital. https://about.bnef.com/blog/sustainable-agriculture-is-the-new-green-revolution/
