In case you didn’t know, the City of Los Angeles still gets 40% of its electricity from coal-fired power plants, the dirtiest polluters and greenhouse gassers on the planet. Or build a cardboard solar panel and wind turbine to tow and show! It’s long been time to kick coal out of L.A.’s

Is it really a novel idea? The ‘vactrain’ concept conceived by Robert Goddard early in the twentieth century is a direct forerunner of the Hyperloop; since then, several similar ideas have been offered without much success. Potential routes include New York-Washington DC, Pune-Mumbai, Kansas City-St. Let’s inspect.

Putting this all together (merging calendar life, energy throughput and an operational temperature increase of 10 °C), resulted in product life estimates that vary by location and by miles driven.
