I'm not sure if this resembles any kei car.

Rankine Generating Station aka The Canadian Niagara Power Generating Station.
It's located close to the brink of the horseshoe Falls in Niagara Falls Canada and is based on a design by Nikola Tesla.
These photos where taken at a tour/Open house in 2019.

Ravenswood Generating Station is a 2,480 megawatt power plant in Long Island City in Queens, New York. It is owned and operated by TransCanada Corporation. The plant uses natural gas, fuel oil and kerosene to power its boilers. #Wikipedia
The passage way at the South Western Cairn at Balnuaran of Clava is focused on the sky. Many chambered cairns are aligned either with the position of the Sun, Moon, or the planet Venus. The Sun and Moon alignments bring about a living calendar to any aligned chambered cairn. Such alignments are more easily recorded without the cairns. The Sun and Moon alignment seems set into the stone structures for the use of the cairns beyond clocks and calendars to generate the identity of the structure in the design. These impressive monumental communal structures were open and visited by their constructors for several hundreds of years. Later they were filled in possibly when a new way of worship and reverence was found and so the old sacred sites were closed. The cairns in their large size seem set to hold great importance for many people and yet their small passages and chambers are only available for either small groups, or individuals. The light from the Solstice Sun gives a direct beam along the passage and into the chamber at the day chosen with the Summer longest day and Winter shortest day having positions on the horizon at dawn and at sunset available for the builders to set their structure around. Those that took part in interior ceremony could be experiencing a rite of passage and from their inner seclusion they could be greeted by the Sun entering in at a significant moment and then by all that were gathered around the large monuments as the adorants came back to the community after their isolation.
I remember from a few decades ago the stones at the rear of the chamber being brought to life by the Sun when it shone straight along the passage. This light dancing on a stone with either quartz, or granite in could be the first light for the adorant to see after days of fasting, maybe of eating ceremonial food and of intense meditation so that the light in the stone shone to show life in the bone of the land the stone that would be the collection place for the cleaned bones of the dead as markers of belonging and signs of knowing all returning to the glowering Sun, to the finding of the murmuring of the Moon and to the awakening to the stellar shimmering the stars.
The highlighted section of the chamber could be the projection screen of the tomb. After a period of darkness in the chamber the light returning through projection focused along the passage would dance on the projection screen stones and with a tone from the human voice the dust in the passage could be seen to move in and out of waves and lozenge shapes forming transient structures in the moving dust and light. The light held such delicate structures possible only for a short while along the alignment at either dawn, or sunset and the shapes would slow and cease as the light source moved away from the direct alignment in matter of minutes. These waves and lozenge shapes are were carved into the stones of some chambered cairns leaving a record in the stone on the bone of the land a presentation hammered into the stone that was home to the ancestors and the shaping of the returning regenerating medium that as it wore down gave vital nutrients to the next new growth that through roots and shoots, seeds and flowers would break down the stones into sparkling sands and grits echoing the steady progressions and predictable processions of the lights of the camp fires shining out with hope and potential in the sky above.

The interactions among water, energy and food are numerous and substantial. Water is used for extraction, mining, processing, refining, and residue disposal of fossil fuels, as well as for growing feedstock for biofuels and for generating electricity.[4] Water intensity varies in the energy sector, with oil and gas production requiring much less water than oil from tar sands or biofuels. Choosing biofuels for energy production should require a careful balancing of priorities, since water that has been used to grow feedstock for biofuels could also have been used to grow food.
Many forms of energy production through fossil fuels are highly polluting in addition to being water intensive, especially extraction from tar sands and shale and extraction through hydraulic fracturing. Further, return flows from power plants to rivers are warmer than the water that was taken in and/or are highly polluted and can consequently compromise other downstream usage, including ecosystems. Conversely, energy is needed for extracting, transporting, distributing and treating water. Energy intensity for accessing a cubic meter of water varies: logically, accessing local surface water requires far less energy than pumping groundwater, reclaiming wastewater or desalinating seawater. Irrigation is more energy intensive than rain-fed agriculture, and drip irrigation is more intensive yet since the water must be pressurized.
Food production is by far the largest consumer of global fresh water supplies. Globally, agriculture is responsible for an average of 70% of fresh water consumption by humans; in some countries that figure jumps to 80%-90%. Agriculture is therefore also responsible for much of fresh water over-exploitation. Food production further impacts the water sector through land degradation, changes in runoff, disruption of groundwater discharge, water quality and availability of water and land for other purposes such as natural habitat. The increased yields that have resulted from mechanization and other modern measures have come at a high energy price, as the full food and supply chain claims approximately 30% of total global energy demand. Energy fuels land preparation, fertilizer production, irrigation and the sowing, harvesting and transportation of crops. The links between food and energy have become quite apparent in recent years as increases in the price of oil lead very quickly to increases in the price of food. The energy sector can have other negative impacts on the food sector when mining for fossil fuels and deforestation for biofuels reduce land for agriculture, ecosystems and other uses.

Due to the fact that the water diet is going to require you to drink more water than you are usually used to drinking, it is highly recommended that you stay away from water containing chlorine such as that which can be found in tap water unless the tap water in the place you live is so good it would be a waist not to not drink it.For those of us not fortunate enough to have a pure supply of clean tap water, using a distiller is that way to go. As low as you have a way to clean your water, then drinking out of the tap should not be a problem as long as it is distilled.In water, there are the concepts of soft water and hard water. The classification difference is based on the mineral content found in 1000mL of water. Soft water, usually what is left water running tap through a water softener has less mineral content and is considered to be more drinkable. In contrast, hard water has more mineral content.On the water diet plan, it is recommended that you drink mineral-rich hard water as much as possible. Drinking hard water said to have more of a filling effect that soft water. This may help prevent overeating allowing you to control your appetite drinking water.
However, in Japan where drinking hard water is seldom an option, most people drink soft water. Most people think that soft water is easier to drink. This may help you get to the 2 liter mark if you are having trouble drinking so much water.
Most important to the water diet is that the water you use is something you don't mind drinking. Since the amount of water you will be drinking is more than a mere cup, the water you drink should be just right for you.
