It is *obscene* that that beast wearing the skin of a man called Elon Musk was just awarded a trillion dollar pay-package after he personally signed the death warrant of hundreds of thousands of innocents earlier this year.

40% of UK food price inflation is being driven by climate factors. What was that you were saying about "abundance" again? www.ft.com/content/ced8...

Absolutely no surprise that the Irish media gifted this much space to Collison, who already has significant influence over Irish politics. But we really should be asking ourselves why they think he's more deserving of this article than anyone else. www.irishtimes.com/life-style/p...

Good morning from Gare du Midi in Brussels! I'm railing and sailing to Dublin today and thought I would bring you along with me. The journey will be 1) the Eurostar to London 2) a train to Holyhead with a change in Chester and 3) a ferry to Dublin. Crossing my fingers it goes smoothly🤞🏻

My fantastic colleague @julietphillips.bsky.social has co-written a briefing with @bramclaeys.bsky.social of @regassistproj.bsky.social on how to improve Europe's grid governance. A quick summary with links below 👇

When the MEP really, really doesn't want to meet you. 😅

So very sorry to learn that Manchán Magan has passed. He was a rare talent, and a lovely guy, and still had so much more to give. www.irishtimes.com/culture/2025...

In this week's episode, we dig into the psychology of mis/disinformation and why it works so well. We thought we knew a lot about disinformation, and then we talked to these experts! drilled.media/podcasts/dri...

Dr Assal Rad— "UNICEF Spox James Elder is back in Gaza and says the violence is worse than ever. "A horror show, paid for with US tax dollars."

Irish energy folks! I'm not normally one for self-promotion but I'm heading to Dublin next month for this event and would love to see many of you there!

Not great news for a Monday.

Looking forward to a nice weekend? Nisreen, Mohammed and their children will be spending the weekend setting up their tent on a patch of land after fleeing Gaza City. The cost to transport a family south was $1,000 plus $300 for a new tent. Please donate and share widely. gofund.me/8a4bbeef3

💸 New @re-set.bsky.social report shows how EP Group (€10.3bn) & Sev.en Energy (€0.95bn) have siphoned off public money across Europe. While people paid record bills, coal tycoons cashed in. 👉https://re-set.cz/download/freeloaders_final.pdf

Irish energy folks! I'll be attending the Energy Transitions summit in Croke Park on 15 October. I hope to see some of you there? energysummit.ie/agenda/2025/

Watching the left in the US argue about how they should or shouldn't react to Charlie Kirk's shooting instead of pouring every ounce of energy into gun reform at this very moment is really something.

The fact this request was even made is another sign of how low the Parliament has slipped.

Absolutely bizarre timeline we're in when the president of the European parliament is giving a statement about the death of an American rage bait artist

The think tank set up by the Stripe brothers (ironically named Progress Ireland) is now advocating for removing balconies from the design of Irish apartments to cut costs. Thankfully @ciarancuffe.bsky.social is a voice of reason against this nonsense. www.irishtimes.com/opinion/2025...

Such crap reporting from supposed EU specialists - the CO2 regulation of vehicles is set out in legislation adopted by Member States' ministers and elected MEPs, not a 'Commission ban' - www.consilium.europa.eu/en/press/pre...

See you there?

I am once again saying that clean energy is inherently cheap, and the reason we don't benefit from that is because the energy market doesn't let us. Great stuff here from my colleague @chrisgalpin.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/environment/...

🔎⚛️Nuclear reactors make a surprise (?!) entry on the EU Commission’s list of US goods with a 0% tariff in the newly published proposal and annex.

The fossil fuel industry is literally destabilising the life support systems of our planet and our policians are letting them. Incomprehensible stupidity and recklessness. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Lovely to see Dieter endorse our proposal to take gas out of the market. dieterhelm.co.uk/energy-clima...

Anyone have any updates on the deal between the Commission and the German government on the introduction of a capacity market? @annahbrt.bsky.social @genicotd.bsky.social @nezim.bsky.social?

I'm on the Luas ahead of the Oasis concert and I've never seen so much Adidas clothes on my life.

While many of us are enjoying our summer holidays, escaping into air-conditioned hotels if it gets too hot, Palestinians in Gaza are suffering in sauna-like tents where temperatures inside are reaching up to 50C. Please consider donating to Nisreen and Mohammed. www.gofundme.com/f/help-nisre...

Quick reminder: Just because it’s not a fossil fuel, doesn’t necessarily mean it’s a good thing.

QTWTAIY “Wishful thinking about future tech is not a coherent plan, and certainly not a plausible basis to allow the huge increase in emissions from a third runway at Heathrow. It's kicking the problem down the road for a future government to deal with” www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Another dystopian headline. The right to Palestinian statehood is a right, not a bargaining chip to be given away to stop them being genocided. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Just pathetic. I'm ashamed to be European.

If you want to hear me on RTÉ Radio 1 explaining why the EU-US trade deal is a fantasy and a very bad signal about the direction of Europe's energy transition, listen here (from 6.25): www.rte.ie/radio/radio1...

This is not surprising and yet bizarre...

This image tells you what you need to know about how 'civilised' the 'West' is. The Global South is the Global majority.

Nice Q&A on capacity mechanisms by @cleanenergywire.bsky.social including a link to our recent report into European capacity markets: www.cleanenergywire.org/factsheets/q... We also analyzed which utilities have won the most subsidies for gas plants. beyondfossilfuels.org/2025/06/26/f...

Zero mention of the climate and broader power system implications of projects like these. And yes it's an AI data centre projet. Come on @irishtimes.com, you can do better than rehashing an Amazon PR and putting it on your front page. www.irishtimes.com/ireland/2025...
