All E-Bus Services In Swedish City Canceled Due To Frigid Cold
 

In the northern Swedish municipality of Skellefteå, all local buses are electric as part of an overall “sustainable public transport” initiative.

However, on Thursday, all bus services had to be canceled due to very cold temperatures, which meant that the vehicles needed to be heated to function optimally. [emphasis, links added]


Despite Skellefteå Municipality’s emphasis on electric buses to improve everyday life and the environment, it turned out that the electric vehicles were not as reliable at temperatures as low as -35 degrees Celsius [-31°F].

As a result, it was decided to stop all bus traffic between 08:00 and 14:00 and between 18:00 and 21:30 on Thursday.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

C S Lewis
