I posted the same solar facts on two social media platforms: One sparked discussion, the other, disinformation One hundred solar panels per second reflects extraordinary technical progress. A platform that simply fosters noise over truth does not.

This is a great article in why people should leave X.

Many Microsoft MVPs partially or completely abandoned X in favour of #Bluesky; few have returned.
We benefit from Bluesky verification so we're able to be sure MVPs are the experts they claim to be.

China is lying about their neutrality in the Ukraine-Russia conflict. The EU should impose progressively heavier sanctions on China to force them to stop the support to Russia

Emissions from wars are very hard to track. But it’s very unlikely a few thousand war machines emit more CO2 than millions of cars, trucks, ships and commercial airplanes.

Stuxnet has been the demise of the Iran nuclear program. I wouldn’t be surprised Russian ICBMs are infected by a similar virus.

This video demonstrates very well how clueless Trump really is of what is happening in the world, and what he actually cares about.

When are people in Europe going to realise that a polarised and divided Europe is a weak Europe? Don't let our differences get in the way. Now it is more important than ever to stand united against the challenges ahead.

Dear Tesla shareholders. It’s time for a new CEO. Vote him out!

Ecopower en Onze Energie: we laten de Belgische burger mee eigenaar worden van onze windturbines in de Noordzee Bij Ecopower maken burgers hun eigen groene energie uit Belgische zon, wind, waterkracht en duurzame biomassa. Samen investeren we in de energietransitie. Word coöperant en verbruik thuis groene burge...

Het was voor burgercoöperaties moeilijk om nieuwe windturbines vergund te krijgen door het protest van buurtbewoners. Maar burgers kunnen nu mee investeren in offshore windenergie! Hopelijk brengt dat wat nieuwe wind in de zeilen van de energietransitie. 💨⛵️

That’s polite. Trump knows bloody well what injustice he’s inflicting upon the Ukranian people.

Experts lanceren modelwet tegen procedures om kritische stemmen de mond te snoeren Europa legt de verplichting op om tegen 2026 een richtlijn tegen SLAPP in nationale wetgeving om te zetten.

Europa verplicht ook België om tegen mei 2026 wetgeving tegen juridische intimidatie in te voeren.

Experts lanceren nu een modelwet om misbruik van juridische procedures tegen middenveldorganisaties, activisten en journalisten, ofwel SLAPP, aan banden te leggen.

I will boycott any American company that reveals its true face like this. Good riddance Google as well

Perhaps it makes them worse at making strategic long term decisions as well, like acting on climate change

It’s clear Musk traded Tesla support for his mission to Mars

Great choice, I had many good times with mine already

Brussels understands it very well. And we won’t just play along.

Insignificant. Who can afford a Macan anyway? Especially a combustion engine variant.

Toegegeven, Bluesky is een beetje saai voor de moment. Voor de kicks ga ik soms nog eens op Facebook kijken. Maar het geeft wel rust dat ik hier geen 100x hetzelfde verhaal moet doen voor mensen die hun hele leven aan hetzelfde standpunt blijven vasthouden. De psychologie voorspelt niet veel goeds.

De fossiele brandstoffenindustrie houdt ons zoet met verhaaltjes over waterstof. Je hoeft je gewoontes niet aan te passen, je tankt gewoon waterstof ipv diesel of benzine. Wat ze er niet bij vermelden is waar die waterstof vandaan komt, en hoe minuscuul het verschil is.

On the scale of the US, renewable output is very predictable. This oil tycoon just wants to protect his business.

Who needs a habitable biosphere when you can just have AI lifeforms, right? I feel this is the beginning of the plot of The Matrix

👍

Many people don’t realise migration is a net positive for countries. We need young people to come here and work so we can afford our pensions.

I’m assuming this kind of facilities are going to be “out of order” a lot while still collecting subsidies

Nen Tupperware-avond voor stylos eigenlijk 😄

Gelukkig is de lucht nog blauw op Bluesky 😄

Pensions are by far the biggest expense of governments, much bigger than social security, clean energy and immigration for example. If the population will decline and age, who will pay for pensions?

What gets me is that the belief among democrats that humans are the cause is dropping. Are more of them being tricked into believing fake news?

De Meta-censuurtrein dendert verder.
Zonet bericht van FB dat ook deze cartoon er af gezwierd werd.

(Grappig hoe ik ooit in de miserie kwam door de Chinese vlag in te beelden. Blijkbaar ligt ook de Vlaamse vlag gevoelig).
