Nice to see Grist reporter @kateyoder laying out the 'flipped economics' of clean energy -- now cheaper, faster and more jobs than fossil energy -- in advance of @climateweeknyc.bsky.social @theclimategroup.bsky.social @johnshopkinssais.bsky.social grist.org/culture/sun-...

Hi All, Claire and I hope that you will give our new podcast, EnergyMatters a listen We'll be covering nuclear power, energy startups, Moore's Law, energy efficiency, energy access and justice ... @ucberkeleyofficial.bsky.social @johnshopkinssais.bsky.social sites.libsyn.com/589665/why-e...

We must do more than just say it @forabettertomorrow.bsky.social @donaldjtrump-maga.bsky.social @maryltrump.bsky.social @rpsagainsttrump.bsky.social @rbreich.bsky.social @workingclasshistory.com

New work on @sustainableenergy.bsky.social for healthcare in @africa.theconversation.com from our @johnshopkinssais.bsky.social @ucberkeleyofficial.bsky.social @dukepress.bsky.social and #DRCongo based offgridbox.com and www.rcha-rdc.org Download here: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

This fantastic science & engagement by @setiinstitute.bsky.social is such a double win: important work (see, for example the @unistellar.bsky.social @nasaexoplanets.extwitter.link @nasawebb.extwitter.link work with SETI) and a way for the public to see science in action. @jameswebbdiscovery.com

This would be a great term, "Trumpanzee", ... but it does a huge disservice to our genetic relatives among the great apes. Respect to (removed) @usarmy.bsky.social General Mark Milley

Irrespective of your politics, this saves money, creates jobs, on-shores technology capacity, and should be considered by all states (why California has not done this already is a mystery). @calacademy.bsky.social @governor.ca.gov

As usual, @rbreich.bsky.social is spot on the greed at the top. But is is only half the story. The depressingly accurate work by @gabrielzucman.bsky.social and Emmanuel Saez highlights how the ultra-rich now pay lower taxes than the poor. Society koyaanisqatsi www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Several people have asked for the earlier paper (2 decades ago!) with @natehultman.bsky.social & @jgkoomey.mastodon.energy.ap.brid.gy at @atap.lbl.gov and @ucberkeleyofficial.bsky.social on nuclear costs in the US. The key figure is fellow. doi.org/10.1021/es07... @ferc.gov @nti.org @iea.org

That is a key: the industry-regulatory bond is tight in @chinadigitaltimes.net - short-term benefit possible long-term concern? The related question is over cost dynamics: these are overnight costs and those of operation of young plants very different from later in life and of course at end of life

And let’s not forget how anti-American are the core actions of @HR1 - the Big Bastardized Bill of greed, @rbreich.bsky.social
