Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Sir: Whatever the relative fuel efficiency of electric and internal combustion vehicles, electric ones win hands down. They are much quieter, an attribute that is being neglected.Why, if we had electric vehicles, and the road engineers moved away from their normal practice of laying the cheapest surface with the largest gravel so as to make the maximum amounts of noise, I might be able to go and sit in the garden again.
