When my good friend and former CBS EcoMedia colleague, Taylor, heard Larry Mantle on today’s live broadcast of KPCC’s Film Week mention, “Joe from Redondo Beach” and the documentary “Inconvenient Truth,” she texted to ask if that was me. Yup. It was. So was this back in 2008. So cool to have the historical record to show who said what, when. I got the price of gas wrong, but nailed the rest of it.

At the moment, electric pickup trucks aren’t really a thing. In the UK you can’t buy one ‘off the shelf’ from any manufacturer, and most of the big brands are – quite understandably – ploughing their efforts into passenger cars. But, led by a host of start-ups and disruptors predominantly out of the pickup heartland of the US, the electric pickup truck is on its way.

Currently, most hydrogen evolution photocatalysts (HEPs) are made from single-component inorganic semiconductors. These can only absorb light at ultraviolet wavelengths—constituting less than 5% of the solar spectrum—which limits their efficiency. However, photocatalysts formed from a single organic semiconductor typically suffer from inefficient intrinsic charge generation, which leads to low photocatalytic activities.
