4 seater electric/hybrid vehicle that gets 40 miles per charge on electricity alone (it recharges from a standard outlet), and about 50 mpg after that. It looks like it’ll be costing somewhere north of $35,000 but less than $40,000.
Icebergs with colored strips are amazing creations.Blue stripes are often created when a crevice in the ice sheet fills up with meltwater and freezes so quickly that no bubbles form.
When an iceberg falls into the sea, a layer of salty seawater can freeze to the underside. If this is rich in algae, it can form a green stripe.
Brown, black and yellow lines are caused by sediment, picked up when the ice sheet grinds downhill towards the sea.
