The effects of gas prices and electricity tariffs on heat pump economics
You might expect that a spike in natural gas prices from Russia’s war on Ukraine would lower carbon emissions—making electrification more economical. However, that is not the case.
Is the Fermi Paradox due to the Flaw of Averages?
Why haven’t we not encounter aliens? How to resolve this paradox by treating the parameters of the Drake Equation as uncertain — an example of Sam Savage’s Flaw of Averages.
