Transport information: car, truck, plane, boat ...
A large number of French people rent a truck or van every year to organize their move on their own. Although the year 2020 was marked by a sudden and significant collapse in activity, it nevertheless confirms that this utility rental meets an urgent need, but also that it has been able to adapt to expectations […]
The car is the most widely used mode of transport in Europe today, but it has a considerable and harmful impact on the environment. Fortunately, it is possible to act accordingly to become an eco-driver and limit excessive fuel consumption. There are some simple things you can do on a daily basis. Discover, right away, […]
In France, the share of transport in greenhouse gas emissions is 29%. In other words, it is the most polluting sector even before energy consumption at home. Polluting 2,5 times more than heavy goods vehicles, private vehicles are the most affected by this phenomenon. AT […]

Bitcoin is indeed this cryptographic currency that has taken trading platforms by storm and destabilized stock market experts for the past ten years, and since then, other virtual currencies have emerged such as Ethereum Classic, the one of the 10 most traded cryotocurrencies, Litecoin or Ripple. A concept at first glance completely virtual which does not affect in […]
Nano-Spike catalysis; discovery of the Oak Ridge National Laboratory made a bit… by chance! The process makes it possible to obtain ethanol from CO2, electricity and water in the presence of a specific nano-catalyst called Nano-Spike. The announced yield on electricity is 60 to 70% which is acceptable on condition that renewable electricity is used (the process […]
The performance of electric transport depends heavily on the quality of their batteries. It is currently the real Achilles heel which limits the development of electric propulsion, as well in road transport as maritime and… that air of course. We present to you a quick little state of the art of the performance of Lithium-Polymer batteries currently on the […]
Oil stronger than streamers! The energy vise is closing on the government with respect to labor reform, strike action in nuclear power plants is scheduled for Thursday. A strike in nuclear power plants is, to our knowledge, a first in France. Obviously, a nuclear power station cannot, […]
El Khomri Labor Law: to oppose the reform of the Labor Law, the unions are now brandishing the weapon of massive economic destruction (hey yes…) by blocking refineries and petroleum fuel depots! And that could work to make bend a government which, on this blow, does as it pleases! Oil […]
