Previously, I posted that Na-ion batteries were likely to reach Li-ion battery energy density faster due to the prior advances and experience from Lithium work. Well, that’s appears to be the case. 🧪🔌💡☀️💨💧🔋

This year's Arctic Report Card from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration finds that the northernmost part of the Earth is warming faster than the global average, leading to melting glaciers, shifting fish populations, and rivers running orange.

High resolution images from satellite and from eddy-resolving ocean circulation models point to an ongoing decline of the Atlantic overturning circulation, a key ocean current for our climate. Read more about it in my new blog article. 🌊

The #AMOC is the reason for Europe’s mild climate. Evidence that it is slowing has been piling up over the years – it now is likely at its weakest in at least a millennium, and it may even be approach...

Electrification is vastly more efficient than combustion technologies: 🚘 An electric car uses about 75% less final energy than an ICE car. 🔥 A heat pump delivers about 4x more heat for the same energy input. Note: Of course the exact efficiency and saving will differ between models and context.

The targeted killing of Anas al-Sharif and five other journalists on Sunday means at least 242 Palestinian journalists have been killed by Israeli forces since the beginning of October 2023. No conflict in modern history has seen a higher number of journalists killed.

Unless greenhouse gas emissions are reduced rapidly marine heat waves “will become very frequent and extreme…, probably pushing marine organisms and ecosystems to the limits of their resilience and even beyond, which could cause irreversible changes.”
