This new report from Pew should be a wake-up call: less than half of Americans say climate change is caused by human activity (even though the scientific research overwhelmingly documents that humans ARE causing climate change). www.pewresearch.org/science/2026...

I'm posting this as a question to everybody instead of just Jenny because she can't be expected to know everything about every aspect of getting more solar connected to our electricity grids. How much does transformer manufacturing capacity impact solar deployment rates? #EnergySky

What's up with Wales? ☺️

When I was but a wee lad, Finland never saw an 84 degree day. I never experienced one until I was 14. I did not like it one bit. Unnatural Southern nonsense.

Nobody will show me a better public charging photo today… 🌶️🌶️🌶️ I challenge you! ⚡️⚡️⚡️ #alwaysbecharging 🇳🇴 nitter.net/RoamingNorwa...

Of all the harm this administration has done to US science, today's proposed changes to the way federal grants are awarded and administered is the most damaging yet. The text of the federal register document is impenetrably tedious by design, so here's an excellent summary of what it says.

All those artists cancelling their Freedom 250 gig & saying they didn’t know it was political should be lining up to play at Bruce Springsteen’s Power to the People Festival. It has been a lonely slog for Bruce. Much respect. Big names, where are you? Time to show up. #PowerToThePeople #Springsteen

Well, that has now completed the electrification of our home. 100% gas-free and mostly running on solar & battery.

Springsteen. Moments ago. Washington DC #nokings

A whole lot of people all over the world are going to need air conditioning to stay safe during increasingly frequent and severe heatwaves in the coming decades. In regions with space heating demand, each new AC should be an air-to-air heat pump that does both cooling and efficient electric heating.

President of MIT not mincing words today in @statnews.com www.statnews.com/2026/05/27/s...

A President ordering the Justice Department to criminally investigate a woman who won a sexual assault lawsuit against him makes Watergate look like an unpaid parking ticket.

I'm hearing reports that the NY State Assembly just passed the plug-in solar vote by a wide margin, joining the State Senate. Assuming the governor signs it, that will be the 8th state making it legal (and the biggest). A groundswell across the country, and so many thanks to great organizers!

Now *this* is a good commencement message: “I’m here to tell you the mission of your generation is to destroy AI." news.harvard.edu/gazette/stor...

Today is May 28, 2026, and it has been 190 days since Congress passed the Epstein Files Transparency Act. Laws don't seem to matter in America! 🤨

Homes with solar sell 20% faster and for 17% more, making it a profitable upgrade for sellers. The same will soon also be true for homes with EV charging stations too.

When the govt banned pirate radio stations, they launched Radio 1. If we’re banning toxic socials, why don’t we start a wholesome one the kids can all join?

When is someone with the power to do something going to say "ENOUGH!"? Gift link.

I have invented potatochondria

Hey, so you know how solar is solid-state energy production with no moving parts? It turns out there's still one moving part and its a stupid little fan that will absolutely throttle your energy production when it stops a-whirring.

Texas will now choose between rage or hope, spectacle or substance. One man sells grievance like snake oil from the back of a burning truck, the other asks whether government can still belong to the people. The ballot is a mirror, look carefully at what you become when you mark it.

Has the Atlantic overturning #AMOC shut down before? It very likely has, e.g. during Heinrich Event 4 around 40.000 years ago, in response to ice sliding into the Atlantic & diluting the water. Climate model simulations of this agree well with paleoclimate data. 🌊 1/3 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

I've long wondered about that.

There are no property ownership requirements to vote in this country. Yet, the Election Integrity Network does not want homeless people to be able to vote, Marc Elias said. “They are U.S. citizens, and they are as entitled to vote as anyone else,” Marc said.

Look, the reason you learned "mitochondria are the powerhouses of the cell" in high school wasn't to crowd out knowledge about personal finance or auto repair, it was so that when people like RFKJ show up selling bullshit about "mitochondrial disease", you know it's bullshit.

i really promise the worst case scenario is not 2.7C

arguing about whether 4C will be the apocalypse or not is v difficult as we ultimately have a lot of uncertainty and it depends on how you define the apocalypse but in that realm we are at least talking multiple concurrent crop failures across breadbaskets and like no water from melt runoff so...

Think of CO₂ removal like a time machine. How far back does planting 100 million trees take us? One mature tree takes up ~25 kg of CO₂/year, so 100 million trees will take up 2.5 MtCO₂. That's a time machine that takes us back ~33 minutes in a year. Nature will not save us from fossil fuel CO₂.

Right here. 👇🏼 No whining involved.

I think this is the first time the felon has engaged in something like this where the other party benefits by dragging things out. Usually people are willing to give him something to just mollify him and make him go away.

The gale that now hammers at us to stave us, we can turn it into a fair wind that will drive us towards home.

The core problem with "surveillance pricing" isn't the pricing, it's the *surveillance*, and the way to fix this is to ban most forms of data collection. There's simply no good reason to allow companies to build highly detailed dossiers full of our personal information.

“How much Iran will get away with, and how much humiliation the United States will endure, has yet to be ironed out by the negotiators, but the war is now almost certain to end with Tehran’s theocrats firmly in power,” @radiofreetom.bsky.social argues: theatln.tc/fNGBk4cQ

As this war stumbles to a close, it is clear that the president is lost: He didn’t know what he was doing when he began it, and now he doesn’t know how to get out of it. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

My damn battery is full of free electricity. The only solution is to buy another battery…

We Stand With Bernie.......

Went to an anti AI datacentre protest march today and a friend of mine got a picture that summed it all up

hell yeah

JUST DROPPED: Europe thought it won the energy war. Build LNG terminals, swap Russian pipelines for LNG, job done. Then Hormuz closed & prices doubled. We didn't end our dependency. We just changed who we are dependent on. But bright spots on horizon. open.substack.com/pub/janrosen...

We are having a blast at the Millbury Old Time Inn with Painted Bird and Friends come on out! #Worcester #Massachusetts #music

The man just can't take no for an answer. How anyone can look at him and think he's great is baffling to me.

Obviously Donald Trump is not an expert in refrigerants, but you can be, and understand why these decisions can be hugely consequential for climate change, if you read this quick 🧵:

the whole point of license plates is making it easy to track the 2-ton pieces of heavy machinery that collectively kill 40,000 Americans every year! if anything, automated enforcement reduces the need for dangerous and problematic police enforcement of traffic laws!

This is how extraordinary our planet is Look at the size of a sperm whale .... Why are we destroying it? #WarOnNature #Metacrisis

This is frankly how many people on social media interpret posts where someone advocates for better bike infrastructure

I can currently neither cycle nor drive due to disability. I'm more worried about the average driver than the most hardcore bike absolutist. They're more likely to directly harm me by crashing into me but also nobody is listening to bike absolutist, unlike drivers opposing public & active transport.

Stephen Colbert closed out the final episode of The Late Show with an emotional performance of “Hello, Goodbye” alongside Paul McCartney. Paul McCartney symbolically switched off the studio lights one last time to the Ed Sullivan Theater. 🥹🥺
