Carpool lanes were built to improve road capacity and reduce congestion. Unfortunately, they often make it worse not better, so HOT (High-Occupancy-Toll) lanes are now the rage. Oddly, carpool cheaters can help fix the carpool lanes in a way similar to HOT toll payers, but at a lower cost.

With the first wave of the energy transition, renewable energy sources (such as solar and wind) have begun replacing coal power generation. However, some sectors are lagging behind and struggling to decarbonize more than others, including large-scale transportation like commercial aviation, shipping, and rail transit. Electrofuels (aka eFuels) are the next generation of solutions to help the hardest-to-abate sectors pivot from their reliance on fossil fuels.
