No need to turnaround!

 China's new vehicle ferries.

The concept has long been on the table, but no one could see it ever being implemented, but China thinks outside the box and have done it. 

Already these ships are working the English Channel and of course in the far-east, one will have to see how long it will take them to conquer the world and make life easier for the ferry companies to load and off load without the need to turn?

These ships have two bridges and thus two entry points with open decks to that of the conventional designs of hinged doors and the risk of flooding and capsizing.

Electrically powered shipping is slowly become more and more, but it will take time for the millions of vessels world-wide to be converted from fossil fuels to electric.

Anti-Fossil Fuels?

 People tired of the mayhem.

The public are getting tired of the ongoing fuel protesting and eventually things will get 'out of hand, and someone will be killed, people so far have been so tolerant, but this will not last and the attacks at the Proms and the snooker did not go very well.

Politicians are secretly investing in fossil fuels and using the proxy war in the Ukraine to cover those secret financial gains, there has been some revelation in recent days, but this is really just the tip of one iceberg, since most of them are still trading with Russia in various areas?

Is going electric the answers, probably not, hydrogen being the logical choice for the near future is more plausible and cheaper for existing cars to be converted. Meanwhile the ULEZ schemes are really hitting the working classes and the poor and the government will have to overturn local authorities and the Mayor of London and other large cities if a balance in business is to continue!

Public transport in rural areas is being cut back and the hypocrisy of providing more is a myth, while regional powers say one thing and continue to do the other?
