Beyond lithium: how sodium-ion batteries could change the world

Batteries based on sodium ions are entering mass production. Some researchers say they could ultimately be a cheaper, safer alternative to lithium in electric cars and other energy applications.

A pigeon built a nest for her kitty friend when the cat became pregnant. This unusual act of interspecies care highlights the remarkable capacity for empathy and connection that can exist between different animals. 😍❤️❤️🐈🐦‍⬛

Russians started this war in full confidence that it will be just a “TV-war”, somewhere far and without compromising their lives. Well, it is now their cities in TV, and their future just like this Wildberries facility in Saint Petersburg, Russia, is getting burned down.

We’re never going to live on Mars. We’re never going to live on the Moon. There is no Planet B. We need to take care of our magical mystical miraculous planet like it’s the only home we will ever have. Because it is.

We aim to make Europe the world’s first electro-powered continent. Our new plan could cut gas demand by two-thirds, halve oil use, and save €260 billion in fossil fuel imports by 2040. How? ↓🧵

"Europe's booming solar fleet has saved €20 billion in gas imports since Iran war, finds new analysis" As oil and gas prices remain high due to the Iran war - solar power is cushioning the impact across Europe, investment needs to continue though. www.euronews.com/2026/07/16/s...

How solar has saved Europe €20 billion since the war on Iran began

New data shows that solar installations across Europe are cushioning the continent from volatile fossil fuel price shocks.

Fascism is here. If you’re not alarmed you’re not paying attention. “Left-wing political terrorism” will mean those who oppose the regime — while actual right-wing extremism is allowed to grow and thrive. We are very far off the cliff, folks.

The refusal by corrupt politicians to ditch all fossil fuels means the coming years will be much worse ... "We are witnessing something beyond any imagination with 220+ countries/territories (>95% of the total) smashing records with insane margins WORLD RECORD can fall next days ..."

Solar panels aren’t responsible for apocalyptic scenes or devastating wildfires. Instead of continuing to rely on fossil fuels, we should accelerate investment in clean energy and advanced battery solutions

No science fiction could have prepared us for just how stupid the end of the world can be. "The environment was on the brink of collapse, and so, rather than deal with that, we burned what fuel we had left getting computers to scam each other for money."
