Personal and independent views. The time to limit the impacts of climate change is rapidly running out. I have been doing what I can for 20+ years. Careers - engineering(weighing, public transport, comms), digital media, teaching, training, retirement
Not all.

You only need to think a tiny amount before the penny drops, think a lot more and you are rich in pennies.
There wouldn't be anyone left on the planet to make use of oil.

"Unless we stop burning oil, coal, and gas, then the constraints on livability caused by extreme heat will only become more common and widespread, particularly as the global population ages"

I don't see anything in the text that supports the headline statement about crystal seeds growing into cells.
It's as if they have taken standard silicon ingot growth and assumed that technique applies to the new crystals???
He has no relationship with actual American people.
Fossil fuel companies make money from America.
The state makes money (and Trump doesn't want that going to American people)
Actual America, that is the people, pay more.
He has now graduated from ‚enemy of the planet‘ to ‚enemy of the universe‘.
US internal investigation blames the US for the attack on the Iranian girls school.
Trump denies any knowledge of the investigation.

Fair play to the auto industry for calling for a review of the planned transition to EVs just as soaring petrol prices highlight why a fast transition is so important. www.businessgreen.com/news-analysi...
London, San Francisco and Beijing achieve ‘remarkable reductions’ in #airpollution
- Cycle lanes, electric cars and other interventions have helped 19 global cities slash levels of pollutants by more than 20%

The rest for clarity is gas electricity generation, gas heating, ICE vehicles, air transport etc.
Right I know this is shocking, but guess what? The Oxford Congestion Charge is seeing LESS congestion and MORE people taking the bus. Try this one simple trick etc etc.

Thermal storage goes from strength to strength:
Tata Steel is piloting a 20 MWh thermal energy storage system at its Jamshedpur plant in India, using a so called heat battery to capture and reuse high temperature waste heat from the sintering process.

The price of EVs is falling at just the right time. www.businessgreen.com/news/4526869...
184 Fastned stations in NL ..

Took a taxi to the surgery, driver was Polish.
Took a taxi back home, driver had Talk Radio on and Julia Hartley-Brewer was ranting about Starmer, Iranian drones attacking California!!?
Didn't say anything, i'm very wary of taxi drivers especially when they drop you off at home!
Price of crude is going back up because the US is failing to protect ships trying to use the Straight of Hormuz.
If Europe sent ships in as escorts it would probably help but then it would mean they are supporting Trump's policy and would effectively enter the war.
So it's roller coaster prices.
Hong Kong aviation giant Cathay Pacific said on Wednesday that fuel surcharges would rise after prices soared in March with the outbreak of war in the Middle East.
Break out the pop corn.
Low carbon electricity is about 166TWh
Final Energy is 1645 TWh (primary is higher)
So low carbon electricity is about 10%, the rest is emitting carbon.
