Yes, they're different products, but their chemical similarity means they have the same constraints on sustainable production. There is a single limit on how much of the two can be produced in total without causing significant environmental damage.

These are almost all non-Tesla chargers with a plug which makes them more convenient with other brands.

Edit: fixed who can use the chargers

It doesn't really matter whether you're producing biodiesel or SAF; it's a slightly different length of carbon chain coming out of the refinery. The same problem of competing with food is there because that's where you're sourcing carbon and hydrogen from.

There really aren't other huge non-virgin feedstocks to bring in at this point; what's left is largely doing things like intentionally contaminating palm oil to make it look like a waste product.

Seven of 45 Democrats - and at the beginning of February before the strength of constituent anger had really sunk in for elected officials.

Yes, they make a big PR thing about the fact that waste oils are incorporated into the final product. But at the end of the day, those are in quite limited supply. Any meaningful increase in the use of food-type oils for fuel results in their being removed from the food supply. There's a fairly extensive government report documenting this from last year

Food. Food oils in particular.

It's a real thing in the sense that you can produce it sustainably in small quantities, kind of like how California is turning 40% of US soybean oil into diesel fuel, thereby displacing ~40% of the state's fossil diesel usage.

If we got rid of ethanol as a motor fuel in the US by electrifying passenger cars, we might be able to support 20% or so of current aviation using it.

In a very important way: they're afraid of constituent anger. Unlike a couple weeks back, they're now consistent about voting against Trump nominees.

Kinda sorta. It took about two weeks of constituent pressure to get the Democrats to start behaving like an opposition party. So the early nominees got a lot of Democrats voting for them.

So there were a lot of votes like this in the first week of February. At this point, the only Senate Democrat pulling this kind of stunt is Fetterman

A few Democrats are. Most are not.

A lot of people didn't even hear about project 2025. Even then, you had to be fairly plugged in to have heard anything more than his disavowal of it.

It's not even that; it's just that he talked to people whom he saw as peers who were able to tell him that things weren't how he thought. And he did it in a context where he had distanced himself physically from a community of people who were deniers.

They've already been explicit that it's 'gay' for a man to be in love with his wife.
