Staggering that most people have no idea about this or what it means for their families.
They don’t think about it, let alone talk about it, because our corporate-owned system has got us fixated on every possible inanity while it profits from us blindly devouring our own futures.

A headline you're going to see few years for the next decade: "McKinsey slashes long-term clean hydrogen demand predictions due to cost, regulation, and uncertainty that some sectors will need it". Feel free to remember this tweet! hydrogeninsight.com/producti…

The concept of "baseload" power generation is outdated, says the head of Australia's energy market operator.
Flexibility is now the order of the day.

The majority of earth's scientists now believe we are headed for at least 2.5°C of warming.
We're in a climate emergency. No time to wait. #ActOnClimate

With more than half of September 2024 now in, its clear that we will not be surpassing 2023's "gobsmackingly bananas" record warmth for the month.
However, it will still likely be ~0.3C warmer than any September on record prior to 2023:

Fact: We've had dozens of new methane-reducing policies since 2010
Also Fact: Methane levels are increasing faster
Why?
- Big Oil doing less than nothing
- Methane leaks up from wetlands and melting permafrost
- And the scariest: we don't really know because "there’s something happening in the tropics, and there’s a lot of concern that increased tropical emissions may be something of a tipping point for methane [and] we have no way to mitigate those emissions"
Clearly nothing to see here, let's move along

Uh oh. Don't tell the "EV sales have stalled" folks, but August saw a set of new records in the US:
-Most plug-in vehicles sold (145k)
-Most battery electric vehicles sold (121k)
-Highest battery electric (8.6%) and plug-in vehicle sales shares (10.2%)
Hybrids are also growing ALONGSIDE plug-in vehicles, setting record sales volume (148k) & market share (12.1%) too.
Sounds to me like it's actually internal combustion vehicle sales that have stalled... 🤔

Far more land is taken up to grow corn for ethanol (30 million acres) than is needed for utility PV (17+ million acres) to power the entire U.S. for all energy- electricity, transportation, buildings, and industry after full electrification

Heat pumps work when it's cold.
Our research shows: In fact they are much more efficient than fossil fuel systems even at sub-zero temperatures.

One of the world’s biggest wind farms is being planned in Scotland. It will provide power to five million homes, and create 6,000 full time equivalent jobs: buff.ly/3jM3Lvo
We have the solutions. Implement them. #ActOnClimate
