Shein and Temu clothing is so cheap also because of exploited labor. All clothing with seams is sewn by a human at a machine. We do not have sewing robots.

Shein & Temu are now the leading online-only clothing platforms. They exploit a loophole to ship direct from China without tariffs or inspections. As a result, 8 U.S. textile plants have closed since September.

We need FIVE times more if we run IC vehicles on e-fuels, when compared to battery electric."

Cool way to show real time detours! I really hope more agencies adopt this.

UPTIME is the key metric that DRIVES fleets to BEV

“Fleets are always focused on vehicle uptime, and they should be.  However, charger uptime is just as critical.  As an industry it’s critical we solve for that piece of the puzzle.”
