Energy transitions can happen faster than we think:

In 2000 almost 90% of Denmark's electricity was from fossil fuels.

In 2024 less than 10% of Danish electricity was from fossil fuels.

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990: 75-1

CEO-to-worker pay ratio today: 280-to-1

Trickle-down economics was always a sham.

Nothing has ever trickled down.

Green Card Interviews End in Handcuffs for Spouses of U.S. Citizens

"We followed everything we were supposed to do"

Legitimate green card applicants with US spouses are being
arrested by armed, masked men at scheduled immigration interviews, taken away from their children, sent to prison

The war will end when Russia stops fighting. Therefore, pressure has to be put on Russia, so that they stop believing that they will win. Why is that so hard to understand?

I really wish we'd stop calling them climate "skeptics" or "vaccine skeptics", if you jump off a cliff we don't call you a "gravity skeptic"

Ani, vládne tam prostřednictvím svého agenta Krasnova.

1) Start the worst European war since 1945 and commit every imaginable war crime
2) Decide how you want to be rewarded for your aggression
3) Leak the list of your desiderata to the US press
4) Wait for the US president to enforce your wish list on your victim.

Great read from Dan Rather:
"...The very existence of a free press is a threat to this president’s modus operandi, which is to govern by lying. Why would he want people around him who ask for facts and truthful answers?..."

Rewarding a dictator-aggressor always leads to another war. One that is usually even worse.

California farms applied millions of pounds of PFAS to key crops, study finds ‘Forever chemicals’ sprayed on almonds, grapes, tomatoes and other crops as activists warn of ‘obvious problem’

One day we’ll look back on this as one of the stupidest things we’ve done.

Remember: The concentration of wealth in the hands of a few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy.

When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, regular people don't have a voice.

The result? The demagoguery and corruption we're seeing now.

Chevron plans to grow oil and gas production by 2% to 3% per year through 2030. It currently produces around 4 million barrels of oil equivalent per day. "There is need for significant investment to close the oil supply gap, equivalent to five Saudi Arabias" over the next decade, Wirth said.

When Big Oil companies claim to be partners in climate solutions, remember: they are lying.

As the climate crisis intensifies, Chevron is once again "increasing investments in oil and gas exploration," Reuters reports.

Máte pro tvrzení, že neroste intenzita dopravy, nějaké důkazy? Může to platit max. v centru, kam už se víc aut opravdu nevejde. Všude jinde intenzita dopravy narůstá.

Naopak, je nejvyšší čas, abychom zrychlili snižování závislosti na jejich dodávkách. Toho se právě bojí, že přijdou o bohaté zákazníky.

This is quite a story: the US employed every strongarm tactic available, including personal threats against delegates and their families, to derail an agreement on reducing shipping emissions that was almost finalized. on.ft.com/47lq3dZ

Obama: "The weird videos of a US president with a crown on his head flying a fighter jet & dumping poop on American citizens - that's not even worth booing about. Because all of that is a distraction from the fact that your situation, your life has not gotten better. They do it so you won't notice"

You can’t reboot the planet if you crash it What Gates is putting forward aren’t legitimate arguments that can be made in good faith. They are shopworn fossil fuel industry talking points.

Batteries are crucial technology for the 21st century Their role powering the growth of key industries means we cannot ignore economic security risks

Batteries aren’t the sideshow — they’re the backbone of the 21st century. ⚡Powering EVs, grids, defence, AI, robots, satellites & data centres — the infrastructure of everything.
Down 90% in cost since 2010, booming in deployment, 75% made in China. The new oil is energy storage.🔋 #Lithium #BESS #EV

IMO democracy becomes impossible in the absence of any social or political norms against lying.

Never in the history of the US has any president openly and repeatedly called for the investigation, arrest & prosecution of his political opponents. While many continue to shrug these things off and normalize them, I will never stop pointing out that this is what autocrats do.

Just two decades ago, China had little capacity to manufacture cars — and owning one was considered a novelty.

Today, China produces and exports more cars than any other country in the world.

Meanwhile we in Europe still pretend we can somehow stop EVs from taking off by holding on to old tech.

Bill Gates Delivers ‘Tough Truths’ on Climate Just Before Big U.N. Talks Bill Gates argues against focusing on emissions goals in favor of measures of human development.

This is just mind-bendingly wrong-headed. ‘Let’s just adapt, tech will save us’ has always been a reckless strategy, but as evidence mounts that natural carbon sinks are failing it really does start to sink into a form of climate denialism.

Bill Gates sure picked an interesting day to downplay the threat of climate change
