In the US context, it is nice that we already have a lot of nukes operational. They provide like 30% of our energy and it is cleaner energy than fossil fuels.

But nukes are uneconomical when compared to wind and solar. They are slow to build and they tend to cost way more than projections. Wind and solar deployments are predictable and don’t have overruns.

So keep the nukes we have, but invest in more solar and wind

I don’t think these assumptions about there being a human author on the other end are unreasonable. I never thought of that.

I can’t take “cleantechnica” seriously as long as they generate all their images. Hire an artist or just don’t use images. Putting slop on a environmental publication shows how little they give a shit about the environment

They were voted out because they ignore their grass roots at the behest of corporate donors and genocidal maniacs.

I literally loled

Or is it one of the coolest years for the rest of our lives?

When amoc or Thwaites collapses it isn’t like we are going to have a choice. (The choice has already been made by not radically reducing greenhouse gas emissions)

I was saying blaming voters for the Harris campaigns failures is punching down.

I doubt many people who would have voted Harris voted for Trump. Trump basically got the same amount of votes he did last time, but dem turnout collapsed because Harris ran a center right campaign that didn’t resonate with her base. All the fucking idiots that ran that campaign need to be pilloried. They delivered us to fascism because they can’t stand their own base and would rather appeal to nonexistent decent republicans.

Kamala Harris refused to take any steps to distance herself from an unpopular incumbent in order to motivate people to vote for her. Stop punching down, the people we need to be angry at are our “leaders”.

One thing that I’m hopefully about is that solar is so cheap now so that will continue to roll out like crazy unless someone places huge tariffs on imported goods… oh shit. I just found out about the massive tariffs that fascist is wanting to put in place.

I chose to vote for Blue last presidential election and Biden made a real difference with the IRA. Much to my surprise. It isn’t enough, but it is a step.

I can’t believe that having a COP in another petrostate isn’t going to be uplifting. It even did a genocide recently up there in Nagorno-Karabakh and then bragged about how the depopulated area was so environmentally friendly. Anyways, fuck Azerbaijan.

He is probably too busy destroying the property of his poorest constituents for anything else.

No shit

When it comes to this ecocide, I’m not entirely opposed to mob justice for these fuckers (oil and gas executives and the fuckers who promoted their lies).

The shitty thing about this is that the businesses will probably be fine. This sort of heat causes chronic dehydration which won’t kill their workers immediately.

But it will kill them through destroying their kidneys and the like. But I’m sure these psychopaths will think they will just be able to hire some other poor person to fill the spot.

Reagan was a giant fucking piece of shit.

What a fascist fuck. He doesn’t want to give aid to a democracy being invaded by his fascist friend. So he add riders that are bs.
