Pretty active out there all of a sudden. That red X is concerning at the moment, to those of us living along the Gulf.

Fiona is gonna put a hurt on Bermuda based on the current track. 50' waves are forecast. Much of that island is not above that - especially the more populated parts.

Amazon, with a massive fleet of tens of thousands of delivery vehicles, will begin using a new, renewable form of diesel fuel for trucks in Southern California. The retail giant says this “electrofuel” diesel results in significantly less carbon pollution than petroleum-based diesel.

Starting in 2023, it will use this electrofuel diesel for trucks making so-called middle mile deliveries, such as between vendors and its distribution centers, said Daniel Gross, director of Amazon’sAMZN Climate Pledge Fund. Though this type of fuel has the same exhaust emissions of conventional diesel when used in an engine, the carbon savings come from how it’s produced: blending clean hydrogen made from renewable energy with waste carbon dioxide that’s been captured from industrial sources. Amazon is sourcing the fuel from Infinium, a Sacramento, California-based startup that the Climate Fund invested in last year.



Including carbon pollution from oil drilling and the diesel fuel refining process, “we believe it's about 95% reduction in CO2 emissions,” Gross tells Forbes. It also appears to be less polluting than bio-diesel. “The overall profile in terms of carbon emissions is better than what you would see from renewable diesel that's based on some kind of food crop.”
