Skyrocketing solar, wind and batteries in Australia destroy fossil fuels youtu.be/wiKZwqYgrLk

Very interesting read from @davidtoke.bsky.social simple explanation on why nuclear is hopeless davidtoke.substack.com/p/why-nuclea...

Thread: Each week I run a simulation of Australia’s main electricity grid using rescaled generation data to show that it can get very close to 100% renewable electricity with 24GW/120GWh of storage (5 hrs at av demand) Results: Last week: 100% RE Last 179 weeks: 98.6% RE (1/5)

This is perfect explanation

We’ve lost a Greenpeace legend today. Pete Wilkinson, founder of Greenpeace UK in the 1970s, was still campaigning right up to the end. His passion and directness, always speaking truth to power, never wavered. Rest in peace, Pete.

As best you can, ignore him.

Whatsapp, like Facebook, is owned by Zuckerberg's Meta. Signal is owned by the Signal Foundation. And it's more secure. We have a choice.

here's how to decrease dramatically emissions in few years (while growing economy): going REs instead of fiddling around with outdated, failing techs

Nuke zealots getting all excited for Flamanville3, a reactor severely overbudget (3 to 20 billions) which took 20years to deliver maybe 12Twh on a good year. Quick reminder REs in the same time have increased 100 times as much in Europe (1200Twh). And the best part has yet to come

Top energy analysts have reacted with scorn to Peter Dutton nuclear plan, warning it will cost more, burn more carbon and result in a smaller economy than the Coalition claims www.abc.net.au/news/2024-12...

On a bike, you’re not hidden behind metal and glass, you’re a part of the world around you. This visibility fosters human connection, whether through a nod, a glance, or just being seen. It’s a reminder of shared spaces and shared humanity.

A person on a bicycle is by far the most energy-efficient among animals and machines per distance traveled relative to body weight. The bicycle is magic. www.jstor.org/stable/24923...
