Today, we know that we do influence the weather and can do something about it. The decisions we each make every day, particularly how we use energy, influence whether the weather becomes more extreme. https://thehill.com/opinion/energy-environment/6003196-mitigating-extreme-weather-damages/

Opinion: Why local action is key to surviving America's climate crisis

The decisions we each make every day, particularly how we use energy, influence whether the weather becomes more extreme.

It's not just missiles and missile defenses that we are in short supply because of the way Trump performs as our commander-in-chief. His indefensible exhaustion of our Strategic Petroleum Reserve calls for his impeachment and replacement for the safety of our country.

Research into the fossil fuel industry's role in blocking climate action demonstrates that the corporations should not have a social license to operate. The fossil fuel industry needs to be nationalized and phased down safely but rapidly. https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/2753-3751/ae854c

Cremation burns about 600 pounds of methane. These are the states that allow human (and I assume pets too) remains to be composted: https://earthfuneral.com/resources/tracker-where-human-composting-legal

The same way that people who can afford to save money in retirement accounts, people should put money into a cleantech account to allow them to more quickly and predictably take climate actions like adding PV, batteries, heat pumps, and to switch from ICE vehicle to an EV.

In its current state, the available permitting framework is falling short, causing delays in the siting and construction of interstate CO2 pipelines and the permitting of geologic storage wells. In some cases, these delays have led to wholesale cancellation of projects […]

The Tate Brothers are threatening to pull their support from Republicans in upcoming elections if Trump doesn’t come to their aid and protect them from facing consequences for their crimes — and they could take their tens of millions of young, male followers with them […]

This collaboration resolves feedstock supply uncertainty, increasing the bankability of torrefaction and gasification projects to accelerate capital deployment for biochar, biofuels, and green chemicals. By de-risking the biomass supply chain, the partnership creates a clearer path for project […]

The UN body overseeing the Paris Agreement’s carbon market has adopted methodology that opens the door for grid-connected renewable power projects to generate UN-backed carbon credits for the first time. This will support renewable projects by opening new revenue streams for climate action in […]

So much discussion about policy and personality debates on the left side of the aisle whereas the right side's issues receive far less attention.

Burney Forest Power plant reduces regional wildfire fuel loads and supports local forestry supply chain employment throughout Shasta County, establishing a replicable framework for utility-scale Carbon Dioxide Removal via biomass conversion into biochar […] [Original post on mstdn.social]

According to the New York Times, Elon Musk is expected to spend $100 million to $120 million in at least eight states to attack Democratic candidates this election year, according to people briefed on the plans. Watch for the people on Mastodon who are joining up with Musk to do that.

This lecture that Desmog has uncovered, "Lecture to Shell" from James Lovelock, 1985 is well worth reading in relation to wildfires etc. Ignoring Gaia could convince her to, "...show her displeasure...where we are no longer a favored species." […]

Shell pushes earnings up to $10bn in Q2, 2026. In June 1966, scientist James Lovelock warned Shell in a confidential memo of “the almost certain fact that the climate is worsening and the probability that the combustion of fuel is responsible.” Four years later, "Shell would become a founding […]

I understand why these motorheads focus on classic cars, since that must be where the most money is but we need more people doing EV conversions of modest, affordable vehicles. Also, if you can afford a Ferrari, you can afford to convert from ICE into EV! […]

Of course the anti-Democrat activists are using Republicans' attacks on Fauci to attack Democrats.

How much of the Republicans' hate of Fauci is because of his efforts to help address the AIDS epidemic?

If you believe that enough large accounts are discussing climate action and decarbonization, can you provide me with examples because I just don't see it.

Ratepayers in Virginia will be each be paying $2.91 per month until 2031 in order to reimburse Dominion Energy for the cost for methane they paid to produce power in 2022 from North America's most efficient methane power plant. Ditch fossil fuels if you want cheaper electricity!

Since the SBTi Corporate Net-Zero Standard v2.0, many food, beverage, but also fashion firms exploring the same question: how to inset carbon removal into their own supply chains, using pathways ranging from enhanced rock weathering to soil carbon – but, above all, biochar […]

The purpose of this research is to produce a foundational technical report examining whether wastewater infrastructure can be optimized to deliver broader public benefits, such as cleaner water and reduced treatment costs, as well as curbed ocean acidification and durable carbon dioxide removal […]

Very cool bendable PV modules that can be weaved into fencing. Bifacial monocrystalline solar cells (p-type) with 22.8% efficiency. Per row at 2.0 m: 62 Wp (25.08V / 2.47A). Max. 64 V system voltage (max. 2 fence panels connected in series). You should check out vertical PV's power curve too […]

Waste-to-energy operator Evero Energy has submitted a planning application to deliver the UK’s first Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS) facility. This retrofit will convert Evero’s Ince Bio Power Plant into a fully carbon-negative operation […]

In the long-running climate science denialism community, CO2 is plant food has been one of their go-tos. As global temperatures rise, vegetation will heat up faster than the air. This will increase pressure on ecosystems and reduce the ability of plants to absorb carbon dioxide […]

The federal Canada Carbon Rebate paid up to $1,800 per year for a family of four in 2024 before it was desperately canceled in order to keep Pierre from winning higher office. That was a mistake. Every state should impose a carbon tax! […]

Beijing’s new carbon‑peaking action plan requires new energy vehicles (NEVs) to reach 30% of the entire national fleet by 2030 — not just 30% of sales. That implies well over 100 million NEVs on Chinese roads, more than double today’s level […]
