Countries that hold big chunks of US Debt - EU ones, UK, Canada, Japan.. - should use that for a political leverage to stop the Trump's US - Putin's Russia fossil-fascist alliance..
Analysis: President Trump’s contention that people from some countries are desirable, while others are not, is nothing new. Language used by Trump and those around him harks back more than a century to the passage of laws, including the Johnson-Reed Act.
Analysis | Trump’s latest anti-immigration push echoes the nativism of the 1920s
The president and his aides have escalated anti-immigrant rhetoric and policies in recent weeks.

UK wind power benefits and costs 2010-2023 : Lower energy bills through avoided gas: £14.2bn Avoided infra & new gas generation: £133.3bn Subsidies paid to wind power: - £43.2bn Overall benefit to UK economy **£104bn** Don't believe the wind power haters www.theguardian.com/environment/...
Wind power has cut £104bn from UK energy costs since 2010, study finds
Reduction comes from energy generated from windfarms and lower cost of gas owing to lower demand

If billions are being invested to power submarines not homes, the public deserves to know.

Since tweets like this continue to travel and I get similar responses every time I post something positive about China, it's maybe good to point out where China's progress on clean energy is and isn't world-leading and/or game-changing. 🧵
"The researchers identify that, in some cases, the area burned by these fires was 25-35 times larger than it would have been without global warming." www.carbonbrief.org/global-wildf...
Global wildfires burned an area of land larger than India in 2024 - Carbon Brief
“Extreme” wildfires emitted more than 8bn tonnes of carbon dioxide during the 2024-25 “global fire season”, according to a new report.

Arriva la pioggia (tanta) ma non ovunque. A partire da martedì l'anticiclone che da giorni interessa l'Italia e l'Europa occidentale, si indebolirà sul suo bordo orientale favorendo l'ingresso di masse d'aria più fredda in quota e alimentando un minimo al suolo sul Mediterraneo. 1/5

Two graphs in today’s FT. Notice the UK’s position on both graphs.
Greenpeace Belgium activists just blockaded a massive LNG hub to send a clear message: people in Europe no longer accept dependency on fossil gas, whether from Russia, the USA, or anywhere else. #StopFossilGas

Exciting developments in solar. Just read this fascinating FT article on perovskite solar panels – the next-gen innovation that's lighter, more flexible, and up to 20% more efficient than traditional silicon ones. Imagine panels turning everyday surfaces into power generators

Dr Jane Goodall’s legacy is not only in science, but in the global movement she helped spark to protect nature and give hope for a better world We must honour this legacy by continuing the fight to protect the world's forests
💥 Europe is still fuelling Putin’s war while locking itself into Trump’s fracked gas. Billions flow to Russia and the US instead of protecting people and the planet. Here’s what a new report by Greenpeace BE reveals🧵 #StopFossilGas

...e può rimanere in atmosfera secoli. L'aumento della concentrazione di CO2 provoca un incremento della temperatura dell'atmosfera, cui si associa un incremento dell'evaporazione e quindi della concentrazione di vapore acqueo. Quest'ultimo contribuisce ad accelerare il riscaldamento.
Prima che si scateni la cavalleria, sappiate che il valore acqueo è un gas serra importante però a differenza della CO2 condensa, ha un ciclo di vita di 24/48 ore e il grosso si distribuisce per lo più nei primi 3000/4000 metri di atmosfera. La CO2 non è condensabile, arriva a 50 km di altezza...1/2

A new study shows the (future) US designed Small Nuclear Reactors would produce electricity at a much higher costs with respect to the already quite expensive new reactor AP1000. #Nuclear is dead. But many zombies are around us. for a synthesis of the study www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
Yet more evidence from @ember-energy.org that the global roll out of 'electrotech' is accelerating fast and will push fossil fuel demand into structural decline very soon. www.businessgreen.com/news/4519025...
