Very cool, that is actually how buyforlife.com started too - as a simple list :). Source: over 2 years ago

Same experience here. To solve that, I built a crowdsourced website that collects all sorts of high-quality and durable products: https://buyforlife.com. Source: over 2 years ago

That's why I built buyforlife.com to tackle these issues. The goal was to build a sort of "Productpedia", where people can search and filter through the most durable products of the world, constantly updated and maintained by the community. I stopped working on it because I was busy with other work and it never really gained sustainable traction. Source: almost 3 years ago

Buyforlife.com and recorank.com use early versions of reviewr.ai. More will emerge in the near future. Source: almost 3 years ago

Germany is absolutely not green, on https://app.electricitymaps.com/map you can see that it is always in the yellow, even when its wind production is maximum. Source: over 1 year ago

During the 2021-2022 winter french npp worked pretty much as usual, then both unplanned and regular maintenance requirement hit during spring, summer, and fall 2022. But for this winter 2022-2023 we are currently fine, we're exporting 10GW right now. And unless we have an abnormally cold end of January or February we will not require any import and will keep exporting a clean energy to our dirty neighbors. Source: over 1 year ago

That's also the method used in "real time" by Electricity Maps (https://app.electricitymaps.com/map). Uh, at the moment, German's emissions are over 6x the French emissions (261 vs 41 g/kWh)! What a success! Source: over 1 year ago

Could do better is right. We have ~36GW of installed wind capacity in UK, while Germany embarrasses us with 70GW! Source. Source: over 1 year ago
