As #Spritpreis trends in Germany, it's a good time to point you to our work mapping the areas most vulnerable to fuel price increases in the country agora-verkehrswende.de/veroeffentli...
I recently had the opportunity to give evidence to the UK Parliament’s Science, Innovation, and Technology Committee on innovation and global food security.
I focused on three main points: 🧵
"Once supply chains are established and economies of scale take effect, there is essentially nothing to prevent sodium-ion batteries from fully taking over the market"
It wasn't long ago that we were told the energy transition would have to slow because the world didn't have enough lithium.
Journalists and pundits keep saying that the public is getting less concerned about climate change while cutting their coverage of the accelerating crisis. Perhaps there is some linkage here?
There are quite a few cynical and sinister figures in British public life. But Tony Blair is among the very worst. www.theguardian.com/business/202...
Complaining about & blaming Keir Starmer for a long-scheduled, still uncertain, six month distant increase in fuel prices literally *hours* after calling for more war in the Middle East is quite the flex. These are not serious people.
Wir haben die Geschwindigkeit der globalen Erwärmung seit 2015 verdoppelt. Diskutieren den Preis von Öl, Benzin & Diesel, reden aber nicht über den Schaden durch das Verbrennen fossiler Energieträger.
We live in an era of perpetual outrage. The right are so at war with everything that I reckon that if you were to put the late Queen and Churchill on every bank note, coin, credit card and forehead in this country they'd still be screaming and beating their chests over it.
Who needs Churchill or a bloody beaver on a crisp £5 note?😤
I have been designing some alternatives which I think you’ll agree are infinitely more superior. 👍
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.

i, for one, am delighted that we finally have a definition of “woke”
The spices must flow!
I thought this was depicting Starmer as the God Emperor of Dune
I’m seeing a whole lot of “but what about” posts on here today.
We’ve reached the point of fascism (a long time ago, honestly) when things are really bad for a lot of people.
Someone naming how it’s bad for them isn’t taking anything from you. Solidarity with each other is the way out of this.
LANDERS: Why did the FBI seize election records in AZ?
TRUMP: They probably thought the election was rigged
LANDERS: It wasn't though
TRUMP: Oh really? How do you know?
LANDERS: Your own AG said it
TRUMP: If you say it wasn't rigged, you're a rotten reporter
LANDERS: Where's the evidence?
Spend the day talking to workers council members about "AI". Management is 100% in fantasy "AI" land and makes huge plans for how to use "AI" to cut workers when real projects that supposedly can do 50% of a specific task end up being able to do 8%. And they still go live.
Elon Musk is now worth $845 billion.
Tesla reported paying ZERO federal income tax on $5.7 billion of U.S. income in 2025.
Meanwhile, nearly a quarter of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck and household debt has risen to a record high.
See the problem here?
Fetterman doesn’t even give a shit about the kids in Iran. Let that in for a second.
Cattle benefit rewilding land if given *purely winter* access, since tree leaves are absent and can't be eaten. Their hooves break up ground, facilitating seed germination, etc.
However, and I still don't really understand why or how, they do very occasionally demolish young trees, like this birch.
Honestly, it feels like beeing trapped in the Groundhog Day movie in Germany, except that it's not about love but about fossil necromancy.
When Iranian news is more honest than American news, if a bit repetitive.
Apparently, Kegseth hasn’t destroyed their ability to drop truth bombs.
BREAKING: The usually snarky White House account has not responded to Iran’s attacks on social media! Thank you for your attention to this matter!
Yes but Winston Churchill himself insisted that the socialist Iranian regime be overthrown in an illegal coup that should have sent Winston the law breaking mass murdering cunt to prison.
Winston Churchill was literally the fascist imperialist who single handedly caused the current Iran mess.
His own filthy fascist Churchillian fingers are all over Iran’s clusterfuckish history.
I feel so stupid for supporting the Lib Dems for a decade. Thank God Ed is making it abundantly clear that the choice within the UK is fascist nonsense or the Green party.
None of the other parties seem to have a clue.
And Ed has a fucking brain. He just chooses to go for fascism. What a loser.
The chart of Oracle free cash flow is fun.

In this week's article, I am joined by @umsonst.bsky.social. We explore why the global "heat buffer" is failing. As the surface ocean decouples from the deep, it is creating a "lid" that traps unimaginable amounts of energy in the upper layers.

I was interviewed by @aljazeera.com on impacts energy crisis.
We discussed Europe’s structural vulnerability due to fossil fuel imports, broader economic effects of price volatility & why this moment should sharpen focus on clean energy.
